"A" is for Apple Activities
There are so many things you can do with this awesome autumn fruit!
Apple season is approaching here in the Northeast of the US. That means it's time for a family trip to one of the many local orchards for fresh apples and a big jug of tasty cider. Yummy!
Sure, your harvested crop yields the key ingredient for delicious pies, cider, and baked dumplings--but it also can provide hours of family fun out of the kitchen. This year, aim to do a little something special with your surplus apples: try out an art project, a taste test, or even an entertaining apple math activity.
No matter where you live, the AmazingMoms blog will help you build and apple season tradition >>
