Fall is a time for apple picking, eating freshly ripened apples and doing apple-related learning activities. Here are some of the highlights from our apple play and exploration this fall. My kids are 4 and 6 and as they get older, we’re incorporating more reading and math learning into our play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple Sensory Play (What Animals Eat Apples?)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After all the commotion of the first day of school (which involved lots of big emotions and late buses), I set up a fun sensory play for my kids when they got home. Our routine is usually to do an activity when the kids arrive home from school and an apple themed play felt perfect. The kids agreed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this play we had some fun learning about what kinds of animals like to eat apples and of course scooped and poured the beautiful sensory mix using handmade creations from some our favourite small shops. We enlisted some of our favourite felt friends and Folkmanis finger puppets for this play. They were all treated to an apple feast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
