Encourage kids to explore different fruits with this fun Fruit I Spy Printable Worksheet Packet. Lately we have been on a bit of an I Spy kick, and this I Spy printable is one of many within the series!
Earlier this week my kids were discussing whether a tomato was a fruit or a vegetable. It turned into quite the heated discussion. After doing some research we decided that technically they are both, but for the purpose of our Nutrition Thematic Unit, we stuck with the nutritionists and included tomatoes on our Vegetable I Spy Game.
My kids had a blast discussing all the different fruits, counting, comparing, and graphing them out while doing this printable I Spy Game!
