Eat Local Food Alphabet

More then ever before, local food is becoming part of many school food programs across the country. School Food Service Directors and Teachers involved in Farm to School Programs face the added challenge of keeping kids interested in their programs while they are introducing them to fruits and vegetables.  Many children only know fruits and vegetables as they appear in their favorite fast food.  We've heard stories about students who didn't know potato chips were made from a vegetable, or have eaten catsup but never seen a fresh tomato. How do you market your school food program or teach kids about good nutrition?  We spent a lot of time thinking about these questions, and came up with some ways Eat Local Food could promote nutrition education.  We are very excited to present our new  educational products for kids:  the Eat Local Food Alphabet memory card game, and the Eat Local Food Alphabet poster.  

Fruit and Veggies A to Z, a Memory Card Game

Kids will have great fun learning the alphabet along with 26 fruits and vegetables! Includes favorite locally grown fruits and veggies while introducing some new ones, too!
Fruit and Veggies A to Z is a memory card game designed for one or two people. The game is played by placing the cards in a square playing area face down, then players take turns flipping
pairs of cards over. On each turn, the player will first turn one card over, then a second. If the two cards match, the player scores one point, the two cards are removed from the game, and the player
gets another turn. If they do not match, the cards are turned back over. The object is to match more pairs of cards than the opposing player.  Fruit and Veggies A to Z has 26 unique pairs of cards representing each letter in the English alphabet, making 52 cards total.  Recommended for ages 3 and up.

Frutas y Vegetales A to Z, A Memory Card Game English/Spanish version

Frutas y Vegetales A to Z is a memory card game that offers the same features as Fruit and Veggies A to Z but has the added bonus of presenting each fruit or vegetable in both English and
Spanish. Kids will love learning their fruits and vegetables in two languages! A great teaching tool for bi-lingual instruction. Frutas y Vegetales A to Z has 26 unique pairs of cards representing each letter in the English alphabet, making 52 cards total. Recommended for ages 3 and up.
