Apple Art for Preschoolers to Create This Fall

Need some ideas to inspire apple art for preschoolers and kindergarten kids? I’ve got you covered with over 15 apple-themed art projects for kids to try this fall.

These apple art activities encourage your students’ creativity. And even though they all have an apple focus, you can still tweak the art ideas as needed.

You can incorporate these apple art projects into your next kindergarten or preschool apple theme. Or add them to a fruit or nutrition unit. They’d also be great as a follow up to a trip to the apple orchard.
