Fruits Basket Craft: Banana, Apple and Pear | Nutrition Preschool Activity

Let's have some fun with three fruits today, have an indoor or outdoor picnic.

Materials:

  • printer
  • paper or card stock
  • scissors
  • glue
  • coloring tools for black & white templates

Review the complimentary activities below for information and nutritional resources about the fruits featured in the craft.

For this presentation it would be great to have the actual fruits on hand to touch, hold and smell, as well as some cut-up fruit ready for snack with the children's favorite dip or just their favorite yogurt.
 
The craft will help the children remember these fruit, and it can be used as a note holder or just as a cute decoration.

Craft Instructions:

  1. Print the templates of your choice in color or black and white.
    > The black and white version is more challenging so they can color or paint.
    > The basket can be printed onto any color of construction paper or card stock, and then the vegetables in black and white.
  2. Cut out images, older children may be able to practice their scissor cutting skills particularly with the basket image.
    > You can choose to cut out the basket to make a nice decoration or simply leave as is and the children can glue the vegetables.
  3. Glue fruit to the basket.
  4. Write the first letter of the fruit on the images.
