This craft has been on my to-do list for weeks. Printing with apples (and potatoes!) is always fun. As I’ve mentioned before, Lorelai pretty much adores any craft that involves paint. I can’t tell you how many jars (of paint) we’ve gone through in the past few months… We just finished up another of red today.
So apple printing. Cut an apple in half (length-wise so it retains the “apple shape”). Dip in paint. Press onto paper. Voila! Easy-peasy.
I was planning on cutting these out after they dried to incorporate in a preschool plan, but Lou was going to town overlapping and making “art”. I think it looks better this way, anyway!
cute! outta curiosity, what kind of paint do you use?
I was using Crayola craft paint on this craft. We also have tempera and watercolors. 🙂
