In girl scouts, my troop sang the Johnny Appleseed song before snack time every week. By the time I was done with scouts, I could sing it in my sleep. (Still can… did you learn this one when you were little? I loved it.) As a mom, I think it makes a great tie in for an apple themed playdate. It would also make a good homeschool unit. Most of the resources I’ve added are appropriate for toddlers through preschool, but there are some early elementary ones as well. Have fun!
