It has been years since I have had an apple theme with my kids. It was time for some apple theme Kindergarten fun with my girl. Funny part, she told me she did NOT want an apple theme, but I boycotted her on this one. In the end she loved it and I am glad I didn’t follow her lead in this case.

I had a blast setting up her apple theme shelves, focusing on anything I found in our stuff to represent apples.

She still has pencil grip problems so we continue to do fine motor work. Transferring pom pom apples with clothespins is just a simple way to sneak in some practice.

The bin on the bottom shelf is just to contain all of the fun red and green items we have to work with!

I made some apple trees for her using our Spielgaben set. Sadly, she was not impressed.

I also got a stack of printables I chose specifically for her from various sources which I will link for you when they are shown below. The links will be under the final photo for each day.

Day One

We explored together with the theme shelf a lot. I use our Scrabble Alphabet Soup tiles to make the word apple.

She loved the apples I made out of wikki stix for her.

She asked me to get out the letter A for Apple from our Letter set, then proceeded to make apple patterns with the pegs, all her idea!

Here’s the apple printables she chose to complete day one. I did let her choose what she wanted to do. {apple dot to dot, apple 100 chart, apple coloring}

The pop art apple coloring below was done the night before. Why? because She saw me setting up her apple stuff and begged to do it!

Day Two

We began by using our Apple Cube Printable.

She asked to tape the apple together and sit it upright!

We used our Scrabble Alphabet pieces to find the missing letters on the apples.

This cutting activity was a challenge for her but she loved it when it was finished!

Of course, apple smiles for snack {sliced apples, peanut butter, mini marshmallows}!

Here are the printables she chose on day two {links below photo}… {apple maze, apple missing letters, apple ABC maze, apple cutting spiral}

Day Three

I picked up a set of apple stickers last year at Target when the dollar spot went on clearance! She used these to decorate a tree I drew for her!

We had friends over for our apple taste test!

Here’s the printables she chose on day three, plus the tree she made with stickers {I drew the tree on paper}.

{apple number maze, apple color word coloring}

Day Four

Dot painting how many apples.

Tracing the apple and Letter A.

We worked together to color the pages of the Apple mini book, then we laminated them and tied them together to make a nice book!

My mom is here visiting and led this apple craft for me. Ladybug got very frustrated with it but she finished three apples! I love the perseverance and the joy she felt when she had a finished project!
