Paint Splat Apple Craft

Servings: 0

Ingredients

  • Paper plates
  • Red, green, or yellow paint
  • Black construction paper (for that beaming smile!)
  • Green and brown construction paper (for the stem and leaf)
  • Googly eyes
  • Glue

Instructions

  • Take your paper plate and fold it in half and light crease the center. Open it up again and put some red paint all over one side of the paper plate.
  • Fold the plate in half again and invite your little one to use their fingers to move the paint inside the paint all over. Place something on the table just in case some of the paint oozes out of the paper plate. 
  • Open the plate up and check out the cool symmetrical shape that they made. You can talk about symmetry here with you child (no matter their age) and show them that the shape is the same on both sides of the fold.
  • Cut out a smile for the apple from black construction paper. Glue it on to the pumpkin, along with the googley eyes.
  • Cut out a stem and a leaf and glue the, to the top of the apple.
