<\/div>\nThe Paper Roll Painted Apple Tree is a great addition to the apple crafts<\/a> and paper roll crafts<\/a> on the site.<\/p>\n Paper roll painting is where you apply paint to a piece of paper using a paper roll. You can stamp the paper roll, roll the paper roll and more.<\/p>\n The Paper Roll Painted Apple Tree is made with paper, watercolors, paints, paper rolls, and cotton balls. <\/p>\n It is easy to set up and great for kids in preschool (ages 3 to 4), prek (ages 4 to 5), and kindergarten (ages 5 to 6). You can also do this with older kids.<\/p>\n The Seasons of Arnold’s Apple Tree<\/a>is a fun story about a boy and his apple tree. I love how the story progresses and you can see all the seasons.

This allows us to make the trunk of the tree any way we want. We used a larger paint brush<\/a> to make this easier to paint.<\/p>\n This can do a simple line for younger kids and older kids can do a more complex trunk of the apple tree.<\/p>\n You can also have them paint a few branches at the top of the tree. These are small lines for the branches.<\/p>\n Next we put paint in a paper plate. You can do this in advance of the painting of the trunk as well. You can see we used red for the apples and green for the leaves on the tree.<\/p>\n We placed the paper roll in the tree paint and placed the cotton ball and clothespin by the red paint. And you are ready to paint the top of the tree!<\/p>\n We used the green paint of the paper roll to paint the top of the tree. You can see how we started of with simple stamps of the paper roll.<\/p>\n Kids might do lots of stamps of just a few stamps of the green. They might over lop the stamps or just do a few. And that is okay if that is all that kids do.<\/p>\n We use the cotton ball and paint to make the apples in the tree. You can see that we did several apples as we painted. The apples show up nicely in the tree we have painted.<\/p>\n Apple Tree Life Cycle Sequencing Set<\/a> is another great apple printable for learning about how apple trees grow from seed to tree. You have clip cards, 3 part cards, easy reader books and lots of options in the set.<\/p>\n Apple Cookie Cutter Painting<\/a> is a fun project to do with kids! They have tons of fun painting!
