Tissue Paper Apple!

 
Cut out an apple shape, then you and your child can crumple tissue paper (green, red, or yellow) and glue it onto the apple and then your child can color in the stem.  If you don’t have tissue paper, you can use ripped pieces of construction paper or your child can color the apple with crayons or markers.
