Easy Apple Suncatcher Craft

by 8 Comments

Apple crafts are a great way to get kids excited about the change in season and they’re a great way to help them get them excited about healthy food too.

This apple suncatcher craft is a great cutting activity for preschoolers – I made these with my daughter who was three at the time and they’re great for kids to be able to display their artwork afterwards.

These would also be really good if you are doing a fruit and vegetable theme and as we love to match up a craft with a snack it’s a great excuse to eat some apples too!

28 Fun Nature Activities and Crafts for Kids

by

No matter what the season is nature crafts for kids are always a good idea and they’re the perfect excuse to get outside too. You can look for leaves and pine cones in fall, flowers in spring or summer and even in winter when things seem a bit thin on the ground you can always go and do a bit of rock hunting.

Like most parents I try to encourage a love of nature in my kids and I think that getting hands on with nature is the best way to do this.

It’s also a lot cheaper to use a pine cone you found in your backyard to craft with than it is to spend loads of money buying new materials!

All the crafts I’m sharing today use natural materials and are inspired by nature with seashells, rocks, leaves and flowers all taking a centre stage.nature crafts for kids easy…
