Life Cycle of an Apple I Spy Game

I suggest printing this page on cardstock and laminating it for durability. If you don’t have a laminator, you can slip the pages into dry erase pockets. If you use the dry erase pockets, I wouldn’t cut the strips apart. Just keep the pages whole.

I discovered some fun new Crayola dry erase markers that come in very fun colors. Any old dry erase marker will do, but the Crayola ones are so fun and bright.
