It’s apple picking time which also means its time to share some apple activities for kids!
We have a nice apple tree in our backyard, as well as at Grandma’s house, so we get lots and lots of apples! But don’t nearly get through them all every year.
This year, I’m bummed. We are in the midst of a big backyard and garage project and the big machines knocked the apple blossoms off the tree! So we don’t have any apples…
So we’ll be heading to Grandma’s house to do some of these crazy apple activities!
I never knew there was so much do to with apples!
Doing fun things with apples. Learning with apples. Cutting them open to see what’s inside (and what to do with them!)!
I’ve found tons of apple activities for kids to do!
Plus, I even included some fun apple treats at the end! You’ll want to make those with the kids for another activity! The kids will love to taste what they made.
These are all apple activities using real apples.
Yes, there’s also some pretty darn cute apple crafts you can do with the kids. But these are just activities that use actual apples in them! Stock up and have fun with it!
Here are my 40 apples activities for kids to do!
What’s coming up next? Activities using pumpkins!
