Improving Fine Motor Skills
We all know that crafting is super fun, but it’s also great for improving fine motor skills. As your little cut-out shapes, and draw on faces, not only will they get to express their creativity, but they will also get some fine motor practice.
Here’s What You Need for this Cute Apple Craft
Here’s your easy apple craft supply list (This post contains affiliate links to the products mentioned. Read my disclosure policy for more information):
- Free Apple Craft Template <— Get it Here!
- colored copy paper, colored cardstock, or construction paper
- if you make green apples you’ll need two different colors of green paper
- scissors
- stapler
- glue sticks
- black marker (for the details)
Step 1: Download and Print the Free Apple Craft Printable Template
Download the Free Apple Craft Template. The PDF file contains everything you need to make enough apples to fill an orchard.
Step 2: Cut Out the Apple Craft Shapes
Print the free apple printable templates. You will be stapling them to colored paper and cutting out as many shapes as you need.
Tip: If you’re making the green apple craft, it’s best to have two different colors of green paper.
If you want to make this craft with a group of kids, you can staple the template to up to 10 sheets of copy paper, 5 sheets of cardstock or 5-8 sheets of construction paper.
So, did you know, you can staple together 10 pieces of copy paper and cut out 10 shapes at a time?! That’s my SECRET to fast & easy crafting.
Stapling the paper is very important because it makes sure it doesn’t move as you cut. The more staples the better. Cardstock is the thickest so you may only be able to cut 5 sheets at a time.
Tip: While you’re cutting, if you cut off all parts of the pages that have staples, make sure to re-staple the sheets that are left.
Whenever you’re cutting multiple sheets at a time, make sure they are always stapled together!
Step 3: How to Assemble
The kids will just need to glue it all together and make it their own!
- Glue the stem behind the body.
- Glue the leaf near the stem.
- Glue on you accessories (bow, sunglasses, cheeks).
- Use a marker to draw a face and personalize your apples.
- Don’t forget to put your name on the back.
And you’re finished!
This is such a fun and easy Pre-K apple craft. You can make this Paper Apple craft for toddlers and as a Letter A craft. This craft is super easy for preschoolers, Kindergarteners, Daycare, or just a fun craft at home idea.
