Apple Core Popsicle Stick Craft
Since the back-to-school season is just around the corner, today I’m sharing another kid friendly apple activity that is SUPER simple for kids of all ages to pull together, to celebrate the season & moment in time!
This Popsicle Stick Apple Core craft tutorial has a back-to-school theme, as well as a fall apple picking theme {it’s never too early to plan!} And it’s just that – a simple apple core design made out of wood popsicle sticks, some colored cardstock paper and school glue. Sounds super easy, right? And inexpensive too!
Now that I have encouraged you to recreate it with your child today, let’s grab our craft supplies and get to the step-by-step apple kids craft tutorial below! Then join your child as you make craft stick apple core pieces together!
