Things to talk about while coloring
Apples grow on trees, start as blossoms in the spring, and ripen in late summer and fall. They come in many colors, from red to green to yellow. If you cut an apple across the middle, the seeds make a little star shape, which is a fun surprise to try at snack time. A grown-up apple tree can grow many apples in one season.
Coloring ideas
Red, green, or yellow all work, so let your child pick their favorite kind of apple. The stem is brown and the leaf is green, and that's all this page needs. Big shapes like this are perfect for chunky crayons or dot markers.
A little learning
Apple starts with A, the short A sound in ant and alligator, so say it together while coloring. The round shape of the apple is great for practicing coloring in a circle.
