Topic: Fruits
“Health is Wealth”
Facilitators of PP2 introduced the fruits concept through a story with the aid of puppets.
Children enjoyed the story and learnt different names of the fruits and its importance. To give
hands on experience, children were asked to keep cut fruits ready for the ‘Fruit Salad’ activity.
Facilitators gave instructions and children along with facilitators also mixed cut fruits and made
“Fruit Salad”. The activity was enjoyed by all. An exciting game for fruits “Who Am I” was
conducted wherein facilitators gave clues to guess a particular fruit. This game helped the
children to know more intricate information about fruits such as the colour, seeds, texture and
many more. Children also learnt about seasonal fruits, rare fruits and also that the skin or peel
of the fruits can be used as manure for plants. They were told that fruits have to be washed
before eating.
