Grades 3–5 (Game)
Make nutrition fun with this fast-paced board game! Students test their knowledge of healthy eating and food science as they race to “fill their plate” with one trivia card from each MyPlate food group: Fruits, Grains, Vegetables, Protein, and Dairy.
Players roll a die, move around the colorful game board, and answer trivia questions that reinforce healthy habits. Bonus spaces encourage students to exercise, reminding them that personal choice and physical activity are key parts of a healthy lifestyle. Each board includes materials for up to five students to play at once.
