Apple picking is always a tradition at our house. Each year, I try my best to find a nice fall day for an apple-picking excursion.

This year, however, soccer and football ruled our weekends. This apple craft is probably as close as we will get to our apple picking day together.

The only upside to missing out on apple picking is the fact that I don’t have 50 lbs. of apples and no idea what I’m going to do with them. I really do think this craft would be the perfect preschool and kindergarten craft to go with your Apple Theme Lesson – teaching the letter A, or an apple picking – fall field trip craft.
