while also creating a portrait of themselves. First, after you read
the book, "Ten Apples Up on Top" by Dr. Seuess you can have
your children make their own face on a paper plate. Then let
them write the numbers 1-10 on pre-cut apple shapes, and help
them staple them in order so that they re all up on top of their
heads.

Optional Math Activity: Apple Flashcards
If your children are starting early math, this is a fun way for them
to start learning early addition problems. Take some apples that
have small equations written on one side and the answers on the
other. Print your apples from a template, cut from construction
paper or pick up a pack of pre-cuts from the dollar store.
Then perhaps while you're playing "fruit stand" or "store", you
can talk with your child about how these are very special apples,
and if you want to have them for your store, you have to figure
out each one's secret number! Then let them go through the
apples and add to their stores collection.
Bible Verse Bracelets: 1 Timothy 2:5
"For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus."

"Autumn is for Apples" by Michelle Knudsen
Apples are my favorite snack–
all juicy, red, and round.
I love how every tasty bite
comes with a crunchy sound.
Sparse rhyming text details a child’s impressions of a
trip to go apple-picking, from the morning flapjacks
to the last juicy bite of apple.
