Children love to paint apple trees and here is a fun, messy way to do it!
You will need:
Construction paper
Poster paint in green, red and brown
Use lots of green handprints to make a roughly round shape for the top of the tree. Underneath use the side of the hand to create a brown line for the trunk. When the tree is dry add red fingerprints for the apples.
Instead of potato printing with your kids, why not try your hand at these apple prints? Experiment with different types of apple and you might find some surprises: did you know that in some apples a star shape is formed when you cut through the centre of the apple perpendicular to the core?
Quick to make but great fun for younger children, this apple collage makes a super autumn or healthy eating craft.

These pretty glittery fruits will make a welcome display when autumn comes, and could even be used on the Christmas tree!
