Apple colouring page

How to use this page

On paper: tap "Print the blank page". Only the picture is printed, with a line for the child's name. On screen: tap a colour, then tap a part of the picture to fill it. "Undo" takes back the last fill, and white rubs a part out. Nothing is saved; the picture is fresh each time you open it.

Colour ideas

Apples are red, green or yellow, and some are red on one side and yellow on the other. The leaf is green and the stalk is brown.

Press lightly for the main colour and harder along one side to make the fruit look round. A small patch left white near the top looks like light shining on the skin. Older children can draw the bowl, basket or plate around it.
