A if for Apple Popsicle Sticks
Supplies:
- Popsicle Sticks
- Green, Brown, White Construction Paper
- Red Paint
- Black Sharpie/Marker
- Paper Plate
Paint the popsicle sticks red and break a few in half once they are dry. Then show your students how to form the letter A with their sticks, and I used Elmer’s Glue to put them together. Give the students a square green piece of construction paper to cut a leaf. Give your students a brown piece of construction paper to create a stem. Cut a piece of white construction paper to fit in the triangle area of the A and glue that in place. Finally, use a black sharpie to draw a few seeds in the apple.
Handprint Apple Tree
Supplies:
- Green Construction Paper
- Brown Construction Paper
- Red Pom-Poms
- Scissors

This super simple craft only requires a few supplies so it’s perfect for making at home or in the classroom. Trace your child’s hand and arm on a piece of brown paper. Cut it out. Draw a tree shape big enough to cover the handprint on a green piece of paper and cut it out. Glue the handprint to the middle of the green tree paper piece as shown in the picture below. Use glue to glue on red pom-poms all around the tree.
