Apple Tree Kids Craft

When we lived in New Hampshire, we had 3 Pick Your Own Apple Farms within a couple of miles of our home. It was fantastic to get fresh, delicious apples.

Now that we live in Texas, there are still many farms to pick your own fruit, they’re just a little further away 🙂

When my kids were little, they had so much fun making crafts to go with each season. It helped them gain many skills, even though they didn’t realize it at the time.

This Apple Tree Kids Craft helps with cutting skills, grasping skills (sequins), and provides an opportunity for creativity to be expressed.

Crafters can place their sequins randomly, in a pattern, or practice counting to use a specific number of apples.

Tree trunks can be drawn in straight lines, patterns, or have hidden initials drawn on.

Apple Tree Kids Craft Supplies

Cut a 2″ slit on each side of the toilet paper roll (this will hold the top of the tree)

From the green craft foam, cut a round shape similar to a cloud for the tree top.

Glue sequins or buttons onto the tree top, these are the apples!

Slide the tree top into slits on the toilet paper roll.

Use the brown marker to draw “tree bark”
