I made some fruit stamping with my 2nd graders back when I taught public school. This is a fun way for them to learn about shapes and use their imagination on creating other shapes.
Today I tried it with my three kiddos since we have lots of fruits from our recent fruit picking outing. First, we just made geometric shapes, and then we used those shapes to make different designs like flowers and trees. It’s a little messy but sooo much fun! Just make sure everyone wears a smock. Here are the results:
The kids use a foam brush to get the paint on the fruits and to get the extra paint off the fruits as well.
These are flower designs made with pears, tomatoes, and mini bell peppers.
Geometric design on a small Gala apple.
Layered designs of pears, apples and peaches.
I drew the branches with black marker before stamping this purple pear tree.
