Celebrating National Apple Month

3-D Apple
Art Fold a sheet of white paper in half. Draw an outline of half of an apple around the fold and cut out the apple shape. Repeat twice more so you have three apple shapes. Color one side of each shape to resemble the skin of an apple, and the other side to resemble the inside with seeds. On one apple shape, cut halfway up the fold from the bottom. On the other two shapes, cut halfway down the fold from the top. Slip the slits inside each other to form a three-dimensional apple. Glue a leaf to the top and attach a string hanger to hang the apple from the ceiling.
