Apple Story Time: October 15, 2019

Books:
All for Pie, Pie for All by David Martin
From Apple Trees to Cider, Please! by Felicia Sanzari Chernesky
The Starry Giraffe by Andy Bergman *
Tap the Magic Tree by Christie Matheson *
Ten Apples Up on Top by Dr. Seuss *

Craft: Standing Apple Tree
This week's craft is based on the picture at left.  The children colored a quarter sheet of cardstock, rolled, and glued it to make into a tree trunk.  I then cut two slits in the top of the roll.  The kids then colored a cloud shape and glued on red tissue paper pieces as apples.  This makes the tree top.  The top was slid into the slits so the tree could stand.

Extension Activities:
- Conduct a taste test.  Try several different types of apples to see which your child/family likes best.
- Visit an apple farm to pick apples.
