In the car yesterday, Kory was trying to explain adding and subtracting to Krystal, it wasn't going too well so I decided to illustrate the point using (theoretical) apples so she could imagine having objects. Here is the conversation that followed:
Krystal: What is zero add one?
Me: You tell me
Krystal: I don't know
Me: Ok, let's think about if the numbers are apples. If you have zero apples and Kory gives you one apple, how many apples do you have?
Krystal: ZERO!
Me: No, it can't be zero, where has the apple Kory gave you gone?
Krystal: I ate it!
