There’s no better way to learn than through experience and hands-on studying and play! This “Anatomy of an Apple” worksheet set comes in my Apple Unit, but obviously you could do it without.
Simply cutting an apple up and letting your preschooler explore the different parts while you discuss them together is more than enough to get them interested.
Separate the parts of the apple. If you’re using my unit, you’ll have all of the pieces, but if you’re making it yourself at home, just write the parts of the apple on sticky notes and place them next to the parts.
If you have a sectioned tray like this one, even better!
Let your child touch, smell, and taste the parts of the apple, and ask them what they think about each component.
