Bee Crafty Kids- Apple Basket

Welcome back to the Bee Crafty Kids link up that I am co-hosting with To The Moon and Back,  Look! We’re Learning and Monster’s Ed Homeschooling Academy.

We have had so much fun learning all about apples and making all sorts of apple crafts!  Here is another one we had fun doing:

This is almost everything you’ll need to make your apple basket.  I did forget green paper for the leaves on the apples.

Hunter glued his apples onto his paper.  I helped him glue his basket onto his apples.

Hailey wrote out a sign for how much her apples would cost.

The completed apple baskets.

Apple Totbook

We spent the last couple of weeks learning all about apples.  At the end of our apple unit we put together an Apple Totbook.

Here is the cover of Hunter’s totbook.

Celebrating Johnny Appleseed

We just finished up an apple unit study and for part of our study we learned about Johnny Appleseed.

We read “Who Was Johnny Appleseed?” by Joan Holub.  We really enjoyed this book!

Then I saw a cute Johnny Appleseed craft at The Moffatt Girls that we did.

Here is everything you’ll need to do the craft.

Hunter working on his.

Completed Johnny Appleseed crafts.  I wrote a fact about Johnny Appleseed on Hunter’s craft and Hailey wrote her own fact.

In honor of Johnny’s birthday Hailey tried wearing a pot on her head.

Hunter had to try too.

Hailey and Hunter watched a short movie (about 17 minutes) about Johnny Appleseed on YouTube.

Tot School

Hunter is 21 months old.

We had another fun week at Tot School!  I finally feel like I’m getting into a routine with homeschooling Hailey, so the activities I did with Hunter this week were a bit more purposeful than they have been in the last few weeks.

Hunter made this cute “A is for Alligator” that I found at Totally Tots.  Hailey loves to work with Hunter and help him, and of course he loves to have her help.

A is for Alligator.

Hunter is also learning the color red and circles, so he had fun stamping red circles.

Hunter loves the printables from the Zoomin Movin Alphabet.  This week he seemed to understand that he can stamp the do-a-dot marker onto the circles on the paper.

Hunter and Hailey doing some toe-touches while working on their memory verse.

Having fun dancing.

Hunter made this apple parts craft that went in his Apple Totbook, which I will be sharing sometime this week.

We also learned all about Johnny Appleseed this week and made a cute craft about him, which I will also share this week.

Hunter loved pretending to be Johnny Appleseed and wearing a pot on his head.

Hailey and Hunter watched a short movie (about 17 minutes) about Johnny Appleseed on YouTube.

Hunter made an apple basket craft, which I will also share this week.

This Apple Tree Activity turned out super cute!

Hunter enjoyed making this Apple Core Craft with Hailey.

We are using Road Trip USA for Hailey’s geography curriculum and we made a Robin Craft this week, to go along with Connecticut.  Hunter loves doing everything that Hailey does 🙂
