    I found your contact details on the Australia Department of Health's web site and thought you would like to know about the award winning
    educational games we distribute on the subject of childhood
    obesity/nutrition.

    I feel sure you are aware that a lot of young children have no idea about fresh fruit and vegetables. Instead they live on a junk food diet. This is not only bad for their health but can lead to bullying if they are seen as being overweight.

    Now award winning storyteller, Sue Andrews has invented a game called
    Belly Busters to help children learn about healthy, balanced diet while having fun.

    Belly Busters and (Minnie Munchers for pre-school children) are available as either giant classroom/playground versions or as table-top-floor versions.

    With the giant version the children actually become the playing pieces. So that they are physically active while learning and having fun.

    Children play with the four plastic Busters, Jade, Leroy, Sat, and Mike throwing a carrot shaped dice to travel around answering questions and collecting as many tasty vegetables and juicy fruit tokens as possible whilst avoiding the junk food and deciding whether or not to gamble with the Crazy Carrots.

    At the end of the game the children pull the head off their Buster and empty out their Bellies to see who has the highest score. As well as healthy eating, the game's questions also cover dental care, sun protection and exercise.

    Please let me know if you would like further information about these
    marvelous games and how they could benefit your childhood obesity program.

    Best wishes,
