The best climbing trees in our yard are the tamarind trees. Our kids climb them all year long and are especially excited when its fruit is in season. They eat it before it’s ripe and when it’s ripe. (Check out Wikipedia for more info on tamarind.)

One pod has multiple seeds and there’s very little fruit around the seeds, which look like small stones. But they kids love them.

It’s amazing how high our kids get in these trees.
