The Superpowers Of Healthy Food Game

The Superpowers of Healthy Food Game by Akros is a lively and educational resource that helps children aged 3 years and over learn about nutrition in a playful and empowering way. Through colourful and engaging illustrations, children discover the œsuperpowers hidden in everyday foods - such as strength, energy, and immunity - and learn how these foods contribute to a healthy lifestyle. By connecting foods to superhero traits, this game captures children's imagination while teaching key concepts of health and nutrition.

The game encourages players to classify foods according to their main nutrients and associated food groups, supporting foundational knowledge of healthy eating habits.

It promotes not only physical wellbeing but also confidence and social connection through group play.
