Instructions for how to use these apple templates:
Fun things to do with an outline of an apple:
Use as a coloring page: Let kids color inside the apple shapes, add shading, or decorate with faces, stickers, or fall-themed doodles. Make an easy tissue paper craft: Fill in the apple shape with red, green, or yellow tissue paper squares for a fun and textured art activity. Create a simple cut-and-glue craft: Cut out the apple outline and decorate it with glitter, pom poms, buttons, or even real apple seeds for a hands-on project. Trace onto construction paper: Use the template as a stencil to make apples in different colors — perfect for bulletin boards, classroom displays, or window decorations. Turn it into a fall card or invitation: Glue the blank apple shape to a piece of folded cardstock! Kids can decorate it with markers, stamps, or paint for back-to-school notes or party invites. Use as a pattern for sewing or quilting: Choose one of the simple apple designs as a pattern for felt appliques, fabric cut-outs, or beginner sewing projects. Try it for woodcraft or laser cutting: These apple outlines also make great templates for scroll saw projects, wood burning, or Cricut and laser-cutting designs. Turn them into a matching or sorting game: Print multiple versions and have kids match identical shapes, find the one with a bite, or sort by size for a fun fall-themed activity.
