Sticky walls are so much fun for kids to play with, it’s like having a giant sticker! It’s an almost magical experience for little ones as they get creative with supplies and have free reign to decorate a section of the wall 🙂 This apple picking sticky wall activity pairs well with the book, Ten Red Apples, this week’s book for the Virtual Book Club for Kids!

This sticky wall is perfect for the Fall as a fun apple-themed activity to do with kids. Pairs perfectly with the book, Ten Red Apples.

Sticky Wall Activity for Kids

A sticky wall is essentially a piece of contact paper (sticky side out) attached to the wall with masking tape. We like to make these with seasonal items as a fun boredom buster, and additionally, can be used for learning shapes, colors and more!

This apple picking sticky wall makes a great fall activity for kids.

If you are uncomfortable with placing this on your wall, it can be attached to a table top instead (though working on a vertical surface like a wall can have great benefits).

Cut a piece of contact paper large enough to cover the tree completely, and attach it to the wall with masking tape, sticky side out (see video below to see this part in action).

 


On the contact paper, write numbers 1-10 using a permanent marker for kids to place and count ‘apples’.

Kids can add the pom pom apples to the tree and pick them off. This is a great activity to read along with the book, Ten Red Apples. My 4 year old enjoyed picking an apple with each page, pretending to be the animal doing the picking.

We added some felt fall leaves to our sticky wall and played and read over and over again!
