You will cut the apple out of the red circle and the stem out of the green circle. This gives your child somewhere to aim with their dots.

Peel back the paper and tape, sticky side up, on your workspace. Now fill the circles with dots. Have them match the dots with the correct colored circle. Going over the edges is fine.A simple apple themed fine motor activity combines construction paper and contact paper to create a fun apple craft.
