3 values around what and how we eat

Honorable Mention in China Design Intelligence Award 2023
A healthy diet helps to protect against malnutrition in all its forms. 
However, increased production of processed foods, rapid urbanization, and changing lifestyles have led to a shift in dietary patterns where children are being affected globally according to the World Health Organization.

Feeding Friendzy is a collection of toys that aims to create a positive relationship between preschoolers, food, and nutrition. 
Through 3 different stories, each with a level of difficulty, children can identify how food is an agent of stimuli and wellness for our bodies.





Every toy features a magnetic hand that helps to move the various internal pieces reinforcing fine motor skills and eye-hand coordination.



Each unique concept supports problem-solving skills, curiosity around different types of food, and an understanding of cause and effect.  

With Feeding Friendzy, children can develop their cognitive abilities and gain a deeper appreciation for the role food plays in our lives.

So, let’s start playing by using 3 simple questions! 




have you ever eaten lots of candies?

My mom and my dentist said: Too many sweets are bad for my teeth :(










have you ever made faces when you eat?

Turn my pieces to see the ones I make for each taste!










have you ever heard about balanced meals?

Help me to organize my food in a healthy way!






 





Embracing an approach of preventive nutritional education, the collection facilitates reflections on the overconsumption of sweets, the sensory nuances of flavors, and the importance of a balanced diet.





Feeding Friendzy emerges as a creative and interactive solution to nurture nutritional awareness from an early age, contributing to the discourse on pedagogical tools that promote healthy eating habits in early childhood education.
