Which is any colour other than green, yellow, orange, red, blue or purple?

For a children's activity, it'd be really good to have 8 colours Blush

Avocado - brown ?
Diff types of melons - varying shades ?

Aren't dragon fruits pink?

This is a hard question!

c75kp0r · 11/01/2020 20:28

once you have used up green, yellow, orange, red, blue or purple, does that even leave 8 other colours?

Pink Grapefruit?

Dragon fruit - pink outside and whitish inside. Russet apples - brownish. Black cherries. Sultanas - normal and golden.

figs? are figs brown? i’ve never met a fig in the wild, so i couldn’t guarantee it. you could probably google it i dunno.

Figs, kiwi fruit, coconut

Topbird29 · 11/01/2020 20:39

Olives are actually a fruit, so black olives, and pink rhubarb

@c75kp0r - I think the 8 colours can include that original list, so 2 more.

I only needed 8 colours in total. A map needs to be coloured to show where different fruit come from. Learning about fruit generally and geography, and transport miles, is tangential/ a biproduct not actually the central purpose of the activity, but the activity only works with several colours in use and I needed 8 colours in play if possible Grin

Thanks everyone! 🍊 🍓 🍐 🍌

I know this isn't AIBU, but YABU not putting the colours in rainbow order Wink

StegosaurusRex Grin

Red 🍅 or 🍒
Yellow 🍌
Pink raspberry (which doesn't produce an emoji)
But possibly also peachy coloured 🍑
Green apple or 🍐
Orange 🍊
Purple grapes
Blue bluberries

Brown peanuts possibly... Allegedly they're fruit technically...
Black blackberries...

I won't need that many but it's good to have options Grin
