I also have to lug my kids to the grocery store and they are usually so bored with it, but this today I took a few minutes and we learned some of the less known fruits in French. Then at the end of this quick lesson I let them each pick out one to try at home. My son chose a star fruit and my daughter a mango. It made the lesson complete when they asked for the fruit by its French name when we got home.
Here is a list of vocabulary to help you on your next trip to the grocery store:
star fruit - le fruit d'étoile
cantalope - le cantaloup
grapefruit - le pamplemousse
mango - la mangue
nectarine - la nectarine
