Welcome to stART! I hope that you will enjoy our story and art project and maybe even share your own too. All I ask is that you link back to A Mommy’s Adventures so that everyone can see all the other great projects that everyone shares too! The linky will be open all week.
I added a stART tab in my navigation bar to make it easier to search for past stART projects. Be sure to check it out!! All the books that we have read and did a stART project for are listed in alphabetical order.
This week we read A Day at the Apple Orchard, by Megan Faulkner and Adam Krawesky. This is a great book that describes a child's trip to an apple orchard. Emily was excited to see all the photographs and to talk about when we went apple picking last year with her little cousin. I loved all the information that this book shared in a fun way. At first I thought that it would be boring for her, but it actually held her attention as we discussed the information I read and things that were going on in the photographs.
After reading this book we made some cute apple sun catchers. All you need is a clear plastic lid, paint brush, watered down glue, green craft foam and a brown pipe cleaner. 
Emily was very proud of her finished sun catcher!!

Great idea! I actually have this book on reserve at the library so I'll have to remember to do this project once it comes in. Thanks for sharing.
I love the apple! Now I need to see if our library has this book.
Oh, we loved reading that book last week during our apple theme!! We didn't have an orchard nearby, but my aunt had several trees we could pick apples from! It was really fun!
I have never seen a suncatcher made like that - I love it. Emily did a great job.
Emily looks so proud of her work - how cute!
I have never seen a suncatcher project like that. Very cute! I want to do some apple activities with my little girl but I still haven't got around to it.

We adore apple crafts. That one looks like fun to make and must be pretty to display.
That's cute! I never thought to make a suncatcher with a lid. What a great idea!
I love this idea! It is so simple & cute!!
I've really enjoyed taking a look around your blog! You have so many great ideas! And I love how you are seeking to teach your little ones about God. I look forward to reading more! :)
