Kids Apple Crafts

Apple Printing Fun

Items you will need:
Apples
Knife (parent will use)
White Paint
Red Paint
Paint Brush
Glue
Paper color of choice.

What you will need to do:
Cut apples in half. Cut one at half starting at the core and cut the other in half starting at the middle of the apple. Each way to cut it give you a different pattern. For younger kidz you can just let them dip their apple into the paint and make apple prints. Older kidz can take a paint brush and paint white in the middle of the apple then outline the edge in red paint. When you make a print it will show the red skin on the apple. When you are done making your prints you can glue the seeds you got out of your apples on to the apple prints. Then your apple will look real.

Old Lady Apple Fun


Items you will need:

Apple
Peeler
Butter knife or popsicle stick will work too.
Lemon Juice

What you will need to do…

You peel the apple and then with a knife cut the facial features (nose, eyes, mouth, etc.). Then the apple gets coated with a wash of lemon juice and water (so it doesn’t get dark brown). Then let air dry to shrivel and shrink to their each individual face.
