(Inspired by Stan the man and Nat)
Pumpkins are a wholesome staple food in many parts of the world. They are so versatile as they can be used in everything from scones to stir fries or even dips but that is not what makes a pumpkin a hero of this story. Did you know that the Kingdom of Heaven can be like a pumpkin?
Ask “How many apples can you get out of just one apple?” and show them an apple.
Most people don’t really know or have a really poor go at a guess.
After a reasonable time prompt them in this line of thought:
Stan, a good friend, and I were walking in the garden the other day. He asked “is that an apple tree?” and pointed to a tree that was about 600 mm (2 ft) tall . It was jam packed with fruit (over twenty) . I told him that it was a fairly young apple tree. He was amazed at the amount of fruit on it and asked me how it had so many apples on it? Was it a special type of apple tree?
