Een stap-voor-stap handleiding om het spel te spelen

1

All food cards on Panel 1 are visible. The group goes through each food item one by one.

The instructor asks: “What do you think — is this healthy, average, or unhealthy?” Children vote using thumbs up, middle, or down — or by naming the color (green, orange, red). The instructor then opens the slider to reveal the correct answer. The foods are closed again, turning this part into a memory challenge for later rounds.

On the other side of the board, there’s a large pizza divided into three color zones: green, orange, red.

Each team receives 15 ingredient cards (foods).

They have 1 minute to place 10 ingredients on the correct color zone according to their health value.

After one minute, check the answers.

Each correct placement = 1 point.

The team with the most points wins!

After the game, talk with the kids about:

  • What foods they usually eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
  • Which foods are healthy or less healthy.
  • What an “ideal meal” could look like and why.


Extra informatie over het spel

You can adapt the discussion depending on age:

  • Ages 5–6: simple naming of foods and habits (“What do you eat for breakfast?”).
  • Ages 9–13: more in-depth conversation about nutrients and balanced meals.


For a street-friendly version, use laminated food cards and chalk-drawn colored circles on the ground instead of boards.

Let kids invent new foods or create “fantasy pizzas” that mix healthy and funny ingredients.

Encourage kids to share meals from their culture — it’s a great way to compare traditions and discover diversity.


This game concept was developed during an open StreetwiZe leadership expedition in a refugee center in Pelt, Belgium.
