Maybe then add the tower of Hanoi. I usually translate the Scheme examples on this page into Python:

It's a great example because of the simplicity in the first implementation. It leads into recursion tree diagrams. You can explain how the stack works and why it's overflowing. Finally, you can explain what an accumulator is. Fibonacci. It’s a great example because of the simplicity in the first implementation. It leads into recursion tree diagrams.
