How do you cut apples for painting?
My favorite way to cut apples for painting is to cut the apple right in half, so you have one top half with the stem, and one bottom half. These halves create a cool star shape in the middle with the seeds. Apple wedges are a great way to cut your apples too. Be sure to check out Apple Worksheets for Preschool to continue with an apple theme. Whether they’re stamping, rolling, or dipping apples in paint, your little ones will be able to express themselves creatively and use their imagination! Apple painting enhances fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. Holding, manipulating, and maneuvering the apple slices for painting refines their dexterity.
Apple Painting for Kids!
Once you’ve got your apples cut, stick a fork right in the middle of each apple. Have your little ones pick up each apple slice with the fork, dip in paint, then stamp onto their paper. Remember, use a thick cardstock paper for your apple stamping. I used honey crisp and granny seed apples for my painting, they seemed the sturdiest. Make your own Apple Sun Catcher to get creative with an apple craft. Be sure to show off your apple artwork once dry! Did any seeds make it into your painting? Did any of your colors mix together? What was your favorite apple shape? Be sure to talk about apple vocabulary while completing this fun activity. Can you identify the apple skin, seeds, flesh, core, stem, and leaf?
