A story + art = a great stART!!!
This week for our story we read Up, Up, Up!, It's Apple Picking Time by Jody Fickes Shapiro. A perfect fall story illustrating an extended family coming together to pick and then sell apples. For our project we did Apple Prints (of course!)... the girls really enjoyed this project on their first "official" day of preschool...
First I had the girls paint their paper green...for the tree leaves...
After they semi-dried...they did Apple Prints... (making the apples on the trees)
Ryleigh really liked this activity...

Apple printing is fun! Coming through from stART.
Apple prints are always a classic!
Apple printing is on my list of things to do this fall with the kids.
I love how this turned out, and the book sounds lovely too.
That does look like a lot of fun!
I love her artwork. I hope we get to go visit an orchard this fall. JDaniel would love it.
It has been a long time since we did apple printing. I guess this is the perfect time to do it again! Maybe we will give this project a try.
We love fruit and vegie printing too. I love the way you kept your apple trees simple and fun.
