Johnny Apple Seed Song:
The Lord is good to me
And so I thank the Lord
For giving me the things I need
The sun and the rain and the apple seed.
The Lord is good to me
Way Up High In the Apple Tree.
Way up high in the apple tree,
Two little 
apples smiled down at me,
I shook that tree as hard as I could,
Down came the apples, ...Um, they were good! �
Apple Printingcut apples in half crossways and point out the
inside - I have tried to do this with tempra and if the kids get to much paint on the apples it will not work. But I did try my red ink pad and it worked GREAT!
Have the kids stamp their apples onto a large sheet of paper. Looks very neat!
Apple rip sheets
You will need:
Small paper plate
a peice of red paper
Have the children tear the paper into small pieces then glue the pieces all over the plate add a green paper stem and hang up. (alternate method-cut out an apple shape from a peice of construction paper instead of using a paper plate)
5 Red apples
Five red apples in a grocery store
Bobby bought one & then there were 4
Four red apples on an apple tree
Susie ate one & then there were 3
Three red apples. What did Alice do?
Why she ate one & then there were 2
Two red apples ripening in the sun
Tommy ate one, & now there was one
One red apple & now we are done
I ate the last one & now there are none!
