Dining Decisions is an educational, interactive mobile app that helps kids learn to make healthy food choices at home, school, or on the go.
App Tests Kids’ Food Smarts
Kendra, our animated food expert, helps kids make smart food choices to stay healthy. With the BAM! Dining Decisions game, kids decide which foods to add to their plates and become empowered to choose the right foods in life. As various food options are presented on a conveyor belt, they choose which food is a “GO!,” a “Slow,” or a “WHOA!”: |
|
“GO!” foods give you energy and strength.
“Slow” foods are not as nutritious and should be eaten in small amounts.
“WHOA!” foods are high in sugar, fat, and calories and should be saved for special occasions.
