BRIGHT, Engaging, Double-Sided Learning

Sprout healthy habits early! With Tot Talk’s Food Groups & Vitamins Placemat, kids explore where food comes from and learn the building blocks of good nutrition through fun, colorful farm scenes and hands-on activities.

Front Side

Features a vibrant farm illustration where children can identify fruits, vegetables, grains, and proteins by locating where they grow — underground, on trees, on vines, or in fields. Kids begin to understand food origins while building observation skills and healthy eating awareness in a playful, visual way.

Back Side

Includes the “My Plate” guide, teaching children the five main food groups, vitamins, and key nutrients. Kids can track their daily meals with the simple schedule section and reflect on whether they need more vegetables, fruits, grains, or proteins. The layout also explains vitamins, minerals, sleep, and physical activity in a kid-friendly, easy-to-understand format.
Washable, dry-erase friendly, and perfect for mealtime learning at home or school.
