No, Dorie, when you are talking about general, fruits is correct. The same goes to Peoples, when you are talking about ethnic group you can be use peoples, fishes when you are taking about the species in general.
very clear but slow, dull and repetitive. A good teacher can be more interesting than this video. If this is for self instruction, maybe useful. 3 out of 10
It is true that fruit is a collective noun taking a singular verb: Fruit is good for you. Eat plenty of fruit and vegetables. The tree bears fruit (not fruits).
The plural fruits is used in talking about different types of fruit: oranges, apples and other fruits.
The plural form fruits is rarely used and means different kinds of fruit: Cyprus produces oranges, apricots and other fruits.
If you are really looking to teach your children effectively, Little Reader is the best program by far! Details are on my channel. :) Happy Teaching!

Thank you for a slow video. many teachers just start babling and rambling and the students just gaze dumbfounded.
I'm glad you made the video for non-english speakers.

yes the plural of fruit is "fruit" if it is the same kind of fruit.
But for many type of fruits, then the plural of fruit is "fruits"...
