We’re huge FOODPLAY fans. The shows are right on target for the messages we’re trying to convey. FOODPLAY is a great way to reach the entire student body with a minimum of our time and resources.”

Featuring a performance by Food Play at our Community Kick Off for the Summer Food Service Program is a super way to draw the attendance of both kids and their parents and generate excitement for the program. The show is a great fun way to relay the message that eating nutritious food and having lots of fun physical activity is important all year long.“
