Apple handprint

My kids love doing handprint crafts, so we starting with the letter “A” and going through the alphabet to help learn letters. This craft is perfect for toddlers, preschoolers, and kindergartners to learn their letters while having fun. Do this craft on a piece of paper, or use the free printable to trace the letters for more letter learning fun!

I couldn’t decide whether to make an apple handprint, or an apple tree. I asked my boys what they would prefer, and of course each chose a different one. So we decided to make both!

Apple hand print

Materials:

  • Aa is for Apple printable (optional)
  • red, green, and brown paint
  • paint brushes

It helps to have wipes handy to wipe hands in between steps to contain any messes. If you choose to use one paint brush like we did, you may also want to have a cup of water to rinse your paint brush. If you’re using the printable, I recommend tracing the letters before painting.handprint apple craft for kids, september crafts

Apple hand print

First, use red paint to paint the palm of the hand. This makes the apple. Use green paint to the middle finger, stopping after one knuckle. This makes the leaf. Use brown paint to paint the ring finger, up to two knuckles. This makes the stem.
