Apple Butterfly Craft

By Melinda L. Willis June 2, 2021
This craft is great to do with your toddlers or other little ones! Mini macaronis as young as two can help paint the apples and make their own designs.

Materials
Apples
Paint/paint brush
Paper

Directions
  • Cut apple in half.  
  • Either ‘paint’ the inside/cut side of the apple with colors of your choice, or simply pour out the paint on a paper plate and place the cut side of the apple directly in the paint. Make sure the paint is covering the whole side of the apple so that you can make a nice clear butterfly ‘stamp’.  
  • Stamp your apple directly onto your paper.
  • Add antennas to make your butterfly take flight!
