A Week Activities



More A Week Activities!!!

So in honor of A Week, here are a few a-a-a-additional a-a-a-activities we did!






Apple Art

We had lots of fun with this one. 

Supplies: 
An apple
Craft paint
Paper or construction paper




Cut the apple in half and blot the cut side with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. 




 

Dip the cut side of the apple into the paint, then use the apple like a stamp on the paper. Try mixing colors, if you have them available.

 

 

Airplane Races

Supplies:
Paper, 8 1/2 x 11 or Legal

This is is really very simple, but also really an adventure. Make paper airplanes. Race them, or simply see how far they will fly. Maybe practice several times to see what you can do to make them go further. (We found that holding them in different places while throwing them can effect how far they will go.) If I had more energy, I probably would have had the little guy color his paper before or after folding it. In case you need a reminder (like I did) on the folding of the basic paper airplane, a quick photograph tutorial is below.




TIP:  If you happen to have legal sized paper hanging around the house, try making the airplanes out of it.We found they fly even better than the regular 8 1/2 x 11 paper! 

Yay for As!
