Cool Apple Coasters
Mailbox
Materials:
- 1 clear plastic yogurt lid
- green construction paper
- red yarn
- glue
Directions
- Squeeze a shallow pool of glue into the lid.
- Press the yarn into the glue to create a spiral pattern.
- Cut out green leaves and a stem; then glue the cutouts onto the apple. Allow the glue to dry.
- To use, turn the coaster upside down (yarn side down) and set a drink on the coaster.
Teacher Tips
- Use a cotton ball dipped in rubbing alcohol to remove the date on the yogurt lid.
- Laminate the green paper for durability. This also makes it easy for children to cut out shapes from the paper.
- Use these coasters for cold drinks only!
- If desired, attach magnetic tape to each apple to create a decorative magnet.
