Mother's Day Apple Card Craft

Here's a cute Mother's Day Apple card craft my daughter made. You can glue the messages on the apples beforehand.

Materials:

• apple template
• red, brown and green construction paper
• white paper
• scissors
• yarn
• hole punch
• glue

Directions:

1. Find a good, simple apple template online. Print and trace and cut out 2 apples fro this craft from red paper.
2. Trace and cut a simple stem from brown and a simple leaf from green.
3. Type and print out the messages, "Happy Mother's Day" and "Thank you, I love you" on white paper.
4. Cut out the messages and glue one on each apple.
5. Glue the leaf and stem on the "Happy Mother's Day" apple.
6. Have students trace and/or color the messages. Older students could just write them.
7. Put the apple one on top of the other and punch 2 holes near the top.
8. Tie a short length of yarn through the holes to complete your card.
9. Don't forget to write your name.
