When we were done for the day, we would use some of the apples to make apple cider. If I remember correctly, we made it right at the apple farm. The rest of the apples would be used to make baked apples, applesauce, and apple pie. Of course, we would also eat them just as they were. Well, mom did cut them up for us when we were little.<\/p>\n<p>To keep in the spirit of things I would like to share a coloring page of 2 kids carrying a basket full of apples.<\/p>\n<p>If you are a homeschooling family, or teacher this coloring page would make a nice addition to your seasons curriculum.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>\u00a0Coloring Page<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a title=\"Click to view and print Apple Picking Coloring Page\" href=\"http:\/\/www.billygorilly.com\/activities-printables\/seasons\/4\/boy_girl-with-basket-of-apples.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2378 aligncenter\" style=\"margin-top: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px;\" alt=\"Boy and Girl carrying a basket of apples\" src=\"http:\/\/billygorilly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/boy_girl-with-basket-of-apples.jpg\" width=\"200\" height=\"268\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.billygorilly.com\/activities-printables\/seasons\/4\/boy_girl-with-basket-of-apples.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-1603\" style=\"border: 0px;\" title=\"Click to view and print coloring page\" alt=\"Click to download and print coloring page\" src=\"http:\/\/billygorilly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Print-button.png\" width=\"96\" height=\"48\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>Helping Kids Learn the Names of the Four Seasons<\/h2>\n<h3>Winter \u2022\u00a0Spring\u00a0\u2022 Summer \u2022 Fall<\/h3>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Listen to Billy Gorilly tell the story of the &#8220;Season Sisters&#8221;<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">[mp3-jplayer tracks=&#8221;Season Sisters (sample clip)@http:\/\/www.billygorilly.com\/Media\/SeasonSisters-SampleClip_BillyGorilly.mp3&#8243; captions=&#8221;by Billy Gorilly;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Buy Season Sisters @\u00a0<a title=\"Click to buy Season Sisters on Amazon\" href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Rockin-the-Schoolhouse-Vol-1\/dp\/B001VL1O0C\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u2022 \u00a0<a title=\"Click to buy Season Sisters at Cdbaby\" href=\"http:\/\/www.cdbaby.com\/cd\/billygorilly3\" target=\"_blank\">CdBaby<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u2022 \u00a0<a title=\"Click to buy Season Sisters on iTunes\" href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/album\/rockin-the-schoolhouse-vol.-1\/id307462911\" target=\"_blank\">iTunes<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Looking for a Quick and Easy Baked Apple Recipe<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a title=\"Mom's Baked Apple Slices\" href=\"http:\/\/billygorilly.com\/blog\/2013\/moms-baked-apple-slices\/\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\nMom&#8217;s Baked Apple Slices<br \/>\n<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/billygorilly.com\/blog\/2013\/moms-baked-apple-slices\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2394 aligncenter\" alt=\"Baked Apples\" src=\"http:\/\/billygorilly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Baked-Apples-300x300.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/billygorilly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Baked-Apples-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/billygorilly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Baked-Apples-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/billygorilly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Baked-Apples.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Quick Links<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.billygorilly.com\/activities-printables\/seasons\/4\/Autumn_Fall.html\">More Autumn Activities<br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.billygorilly.com\/workbook\/whatis_Rockin-the-SchoolHouse_combo-pack.html\">Learn more about Rockin&#8217; The SchoolHouse audio and printables<\/a><br \/>\n<a title=\"Apple Picking Coloring Page\" href=\"http:\/\/www.billygorilly.com\/activities-printables\/seasons\/4\/boy_girl-with-basket-of-apples.pdf\">Coloring Page &#8211; Apple Picking<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Until Next Time\u2026<\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Keep Smiling, Singing, and Learning<br \/>\nAnd You Can Make Everyday<br \/>\nSimply Splendiferous!<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/billygorilly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/MySig-font.png\" width=\"206\" height=\"76\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>\u00a0<strong>and the Billy Gorilly Crew\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s\u00a0Apple Picking Time &nbsp; I love this time of year, don&#8217;t you?
