Letter A Activities

The following crafts and activities can be used to make learning the letter A fun and enjoyable.

Fondant Apple

 

There are a few different ways to do this activity. You can either make edible apples using fondant or marzipan or just use play dough in which case the kids can obviously not eat their creations.

Ingredients:

• Play dough, marzipan or fondant
• Red food coloring (if you are making edible apples then try and find natural food coloring)
• Mint leaves with stem

Method:

1. Roll a ball and create an apple shape.
2. Stick a piece of mint on the top.

Apple Tree Craft

This apple tree is made with a toilet paper roll and construction paper (we actually used an old cereal box but you could use construction paper too).  The leaves are made with tissue paper but you can also stick real leaves on or just cut out leaves from green paper.

What you will need to make an apple tree:

• Toilet paper roll
• Construction paper
• Glue
• Green tissue paper
• Green and red stickers or green and/or red paper to cut out apples
• Brown paint
• Paint brush
• scissors

Method:

1. Paint the toilet paper roll brown.
2. Cut the top of the tree and decorate.
3. Cut two slits on the top of the toilet paper roll and insert the top of the tree.

Shiny apple made with sequins

Buy a polystyrene apple from a craft store and colored sequins or beads to decorate it. Cover it with glue and stick the decorations on. If you are using sequins you can buy plastic pins and stick a pin in each of the sequins. You can also just paint it.

Apple Gift Cards

Print out the apple gift card template on green or red construction paper. Draw or paint the letter A on the apple. Cut around. Inside you can ask each kid to draw a picture, write a letter to someone (a teacher or grown will probably need to help) or draw pictures of other objects that start with the letter a.

Apple Prints

Cut up some apples in half and make apple prints on construction paper. You can use red, yellow and green paint. If you want, you can write on each work of art “A is for apple”.

Apple Lollipop

Print the apple template on green or red construction paper. Draw or paint the letter A on the apple. Stick a lollipop in the apple.
