A tiny plan for your day
Estimated time: 4 min to prepare · 9 min to print · 2 min to tidy. It's fine to stop early.
Before you start
What you’ll need
- An apple, cut in half by an adult
- Washable paint in a shallow tray
- Paper and a tray
Let's begin
Five simple steps
That's the whole activity. Tick each step off as you go, and stop whenever you like.
- Grown-up job
An adult cuts one apple across the middle to show the star.
Cut another top to bottom for an apple shape.
- Little one leads
Your child dips an apple half in paint.
Press down firmly on the paper, then lift.
Make a pattern, a tree full of apples, or a starry sky.
All done!
That's every step. However it went, you made a little moment together.
