How to Print and Download

  • Use the Download PDF button on each card for a US Letter sheet, with an A4 link when you need it.
  • Choose portrait orientation before printing.
  • Select fit to page so the apple art stays inside the printable margins.
  • Print in black and white to save ink.
  • Use cardstock if kids will cut out apples, make bulletin-board crafts or use markers.

Coloring Tips and Ideas

  • Give preschoolers crayons and the easy apple pages first so they can fill the large shapes proudly.
  • Use colored pencils for the orchard, mandala and parts of an apple coloring page because the spaces are smaller.
  • Try a fall palette with reds, greens, yellows, browns and soft sky colors.
  • For counting practice, ask kids to point to each apple on the apple tree coloring page before they color it.
  • For a Johnny Appleseed activity, pair the basket or orchard sheet with a short read-aloud about planting apple trees.
