Popsicle Stick Fruit - Craft Idea For Summer!

Looking for a fun and easy craft project to keep the kids busy this summer? Check out our popsicle stick fruit tutorial!

Craft Supplies:

  • Wooden Popsicle Sticks {regular & mini size}
  • School Glue
  • Craft Paint
  • Paint Brushes
  • Small Paper Plate
  • Scissors
  • Cardstock Paper
  • Pen or Marker

Directions:

These directions will give you a popsicle stick pineapple, strawberry, blueberry, orange and apple.

  • First assemble the base of your fruit. Although we did several different fruits – they all had the same basic frame. For each, simply glue your popsicle sticks together to look like a fence. Set aside to let it dry completely.
  • Next have your child paint the front of the popsicle stick fences for their desired fruit.
  • For The Strawberry – Red w/black dots
  • For The Blueberry – Blue
  • For The Orange – Orange
  • For The Pineapple – Yellow w/black dots
  • For The Apple – Red or Green
  • Now cut out the cardstock embellishments to give your pieces life.
  • For The Strawberry – Some small green leaves.
  • For The Blueberry – Brown cardstock for the stem
  • For The Orange – Brown stem and green leaf
  • For The Pineapple – Trace your child’s hand on green cardstock for the pineapple top
  • For The Apple – Brown stem and green leaf
  • To finish off the Popsicle Stick Fruit craft, glue on the paper embellishments and let it all dry completely, before displaying proudly by either hanging them or adding magnets to the back!

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
