Creators of Balancing Act Challenge™, a board game based on the
Canadian government's Canada's
Food Guide To Healthy Eating, which organizes nutritional needs into four
food groups: grain products, milk products, vegetables & fruit, and meat
& meat alternatives. [Note: Because of the dairy group, it will
not be suitable for vegans. Those wishing to teach a more inclusive understanding
of healthy diets and/or a broader understanding of nutrition will need to
supplement the game with information on other diets and additional nutritional
needs, as the governmental Food Guide system on which the game is based favours
dairy while omitting the importance of water and micronutrients.]
The object of the game is to be the first player to collect the required number
of each food group's Serving Cards. Mail, email, or fax your purchase order/request
(include courier account for delivery, if applicable). Invoice will be faxed
or emailed with an indication of the total owing, including any delivery charges.
Payment methods are cheque, money order or cash.
