When you have a banana, the yellow cover on the outside is called the peel. It’s like a jacket for the banana that keeps it safe and clean. To eat the banana, you have to take off this jacket by pulling it down. This is called peeling. Peeling is like unwrapping a present to see what’s inside.
Think of an orange. The orange has a bumpy, thick skin on the outside. This is also a peel. You can’t eat the peel because it doesn’t taste good. So, you use your fingers to take it off, just like taking off a hat, to reach the juicy fruit inside.
Imagine a crayon with a paper wrapper. The paper is like a peel. You remove it to use the crayon better. Peeling helps you get to the good stuff inside, whether it’s a fruit or a crayon.
Peeling is also like opening a book to read the story inside. The cover protects the pages, and when you open it, you can enjoy the story. Peeling lets you enjoy the fruit inside.
