Teach your kids or students about apples with this easy apple life cycle wheel craft and activity. The interactive wheel will help kids visualize the five life cycle phases of an apple: seed, sprout, tree, bud, flower and fruit. The front part of the wheel is the shape of an apple, which makes the learning process more fun.

And if you’re looking for more ideas, take a look at our apple craft collection.

The template for this interactive wheel comes with a colored version as well as a black and white version, where kids can color all the five apple life cycle phases themselves, from seeds to the fruit.

Our bee life cycle wheel has been highly appreciated by parents and teachers and this made me think of coming up with more ideas. I really enjoy creating them and I love seeing that they are so useful for my readers. So stay tuned for more interactive wheels this fall and for the rest of the year.
