Apple Core crafts for kids

 Easy paper plate apple core projects.... 

Perfect quick project to make while the apple pie is bakking. 

• Paper Plates – Large or Small
• Craft Scissors
• Red or Green Craft Paint
• Foam Paint Brush
• Green Cardstock Paper
• Brown Cardstock Paper
• Hand-Held Office Stapler
• Black Sharpie Marker

• First you need to cut your paper plate down to look like an apple core. I did this by cutting two small football/diamond shapes out on the left & right side of the paper plate.
• Repeat for each apple you want to make today.
• Squirt a small amount on the top and bottom of the paper plate piece. And with a sponge paint brush   paint the rim of the paper plate to create the outside skin of the apple.
• When done painting, set aside the paper plate piece to allow it to dry a bit.
• Trim out a small stem piece from the brown cardstock, while cutting out a large leaf shape from the green and staple on to finish the project.
