Healthy Eating Pyramid

🎯 A whole food pyramid – on the floor or on a big table! “Healthy Eating Pyramid” is an impressively large (66 × 45 cm) puzzle that children fill in by rolling the die and placing food pieces on the right levels. The colour system – green, yellow, red – helps them grasp what to eat more of and what to eat less of.

✨ What does this game develop?

• An understanding of balanced eating – the pyramid principle becomes tangible;
• Classification – 54 food pieces are sorted by group and by how often they belong on the plate;
• Attention and fine motor skills – placing the pieces where they belong;
• Cooperation – the pyramid is filled in together, not as a race.

🎲 How to play at home?

Roll the die and place the food pieces on the pyramid: the green zone is for everyday food, the yellow one for food eaten sometimes, the red one for treats now and then. When you have finished, talk about your own day: which levels of the pyramid have we already “visited” today? The large format invites the whole family to play on the floor – a nutrition lesson that feels like a games afternoon.

🧑‍🏫 Tips for professionals

For nurseries and primary schools this is the centrepiece of a health education week: the impressively large pyramid draws the whole group together, and the poster stays on the wall as a reminder. It also works for public health specialists running sessions with families. The pieces can be used separately too – for sorting, vocabulary or “healthy shopping basket” tasks.

📦 What is in the set?

• 1 food pyramid puzzle (66 × 45 cm);
• 54 food pieces;

Note: the game instructions may be in Spanish, but the game is simple to follow and the clear pictures let you start playing straight away.

👶 Who is it for?

Recommended from 4 years. Perfect for group sessions in a nursery or school, and for families who would rather build healthy eating with their own hands than read about it.
