Children are organised in 5 groups. Each group has to make a fruit salad. Each group has 5 pieces of one type of fruit, which is different from the types of fruit of other groups. The winners are the groups that make a salad with more types of fruits. To achieve that they need to develop a strategy and to talk to others. After this activity a debate is done about the benefits of diversity used in the salad and by analogy, the advantages of diversity in the world.
