There’s just something about apples that makes us think of school. Maybe it’s because the kids used to bring apples to their favorite teachers or maybe it’s because apples are harvested during fall – the same time of year kids go back to school. But apples are a very popular theme for teaching. Plus, they’re just fun to learn about!
There are so many fun apple activities for kids to do. But if you want to make apples into a learning activity, you’ll want to do something that’s both fun and educational. For homeschooling and after-schooling, these apple educational activities will keep the fun in your child’s education!
For more ways to learn with apples, try some of these fun Johnny Appleseed crafts and activities with the kids!

Love this!! We are planning to homeschool and I am absolutely amazed at how much curriculum and activities are available for free! I was sure I was going to need to purchase curriculum but it seems as though I have several years before that will be necessary! Thank you so much!!
