Our interactive learning standards-aligned workshop-in-a-box turns 4th graders into Food Detectives, one classroom at a time.
We’re On A Mission
Kids are the #1 target of food marketing in the USA, with the majority of advertising dollars going towards foods that are high in sugar and ultra processed ingredients.
We believe all kids should be equipped with skills to help see through marketing messages so they can make informed choices when it comes to food.
Our website uses a series of live action videos, animations, and “Briefings” (A.K.A. instructions) to help keep your classroom engaged and on track.
The content, 3 hours in total, is divided into six modules you can facilitate any time during your workshop week.
We designed our program with teachers in mind. Our Facilitation Guide includes everything you need to know to effectively plan for and run the workshop.
Once it’s time to begin, our website does the heavy lifting as it guides your students on a path to becoming fully fledged Food Detectives.
Even though our workshop is a little silly and tons of fun, we are serious about our mission. We believe today’s kids have the power to change our food system for good, and we fastidiously track results to ensure our programming leads to real change.
