How important apples are for our health, bones and teeth, we have found out during our Unit of Inquiry – Healthy life could be a choice.

Still, there are some interesting facts we did not now about apples. What better day than today to share them with you – the World Apple Day. 

Here they are:

• Apple trees can take as long as 5 years to begin producing apples
• An average apple tree can produce over 800 pounds of apples
• Apples are actually a member of the rose family
• It takes over 30 apples to make one gallon of apple cider
• There are over 8,000 apple varieties worldwide
• Croatia has over 5,000 different apple varieties
• Apple trees can live over 100 years
• Malusdomesticaphobia is a fear of apples

Did you know that there are people who are afraid of apples? And that that fear has an actual name?

Anyway, no malusdomesticaphobia in PYP2!
