It's important for our health and well-being. Let's start by sharing some of our thoughts on this topic. Student 1: I think mindful eating is about being aware of what we put in our bodies and appreciating our food. Student 2: Yes, it's not just about eating quickly, but really enjoying our meals. Moderator: That's right! One way to make eating more enjoyable and mindful is by turning it into a fun activity. Have any of you heard of games related to food? Student 3: Yes!

Learning about food groups is a great way to make sure we're eating a balanced diet. Another game we can play is "food ...

Learning objective This game allows children to develop and improve their attention, concentration, focus and memory skills. Children are given the opportunity to identify, explore and discuss different healthy foods. What you’ll need Laminated pictures of foods from the five food groups (you’ll need two copies of each image). TIP: Try to include some unusual or uncommon fruits and vegetables to increase children’s exposure to different foods. What to do Spread out all cards face-down. Children then take it in turns to flip two cards over at a time. If they do not match, the cards are turned back over in the same place and it is then the next child’s turn. If the cards match, the child gets to keep those two cards. The child with the most matches at the end of the game is the winner.
