Busy Mommy Bonding: Colors

Wrapping up our month of colors we’re going to focus on Red and Green, and what better way to do that than with some red and green apples? This one is easy because you most likely have an apple in your fridge, with a little paint, construction paper and/or a canvas bag you’ve got yourself a craft!

Red and Green Apple Prints Placemat or Canvas Tote

What you’ll need:

One apple cut in half
White construction paper
Red paint (we use acrylic)
Black marker for making stems

What you’ll do:

Let your child paint the flat side of the apple half and stamp them on to the paper. Once they are done, and the prints are dry go back and add the stems with your marker.  If you want them to last longer pick up some laminating sheets and laminate the paper like we did in this activity a few months back.

If you want to get fancy replace your construction paper with a canvas bag, have them stamp the apple on your bag and voila’, what a cute little hand made tote you could have.
