What kind of fruit is it?

Fruits are playing hide-and-seek in black silhouettes! Let me share an idea called “What fruit could it be?” When it comes to fruits familiar to children, bananas, apples, mandarins, and strawberries come to mind.

Since many children eat fruit after it’s been cut, the silhouette of the whole fruit might look different from what they imagine! For infants trying a silhouette quiz for the first time, it’s helpful to give a hint by telling them the first letter.

Please try incorporating this into your activities.
