Johnny Appleseed

Kate Appleseed wearing a cooking pot on her head,
just like Johnny Appleseed!
Ella loved cutting the apples for our applesauce!
Today at Ms Mommy's Preschool, we talked about Johnny Appleseed.
Abby was our guest speaker and she taught us everything she knows about him.
His real name was John Chapman.
He walked barefoot, and wore only a paper bag and a tin pot on his head, which he used for cooking. He carried apple seeds in his pockets and walked all over the country dropping apple seeds. In honor of Johhny Appleseed, we made applesauce.
Then...we packed up a dozen apple seeds,
and planted them in our front yard!
Watch them grow!
