Kids Food Festival – New York, NY 2015

March 3, 2015

The Kids Food Festival is an annually held culinary event based upon the philosophy of learning through immersion in enjoyable activities to promote sensible food choices and avert childhood obesity; through exposure to nutritious and balanced eating habits children can make better food choices and develop skills aimed towards establishing a healthful nutritious lifestyle while simultaneously enjoying themselves alongside family and friends. The Kids Food Festival took place on February 28 and March 1 2015 at Bryant Park in New York City; general admission to the event was free. Enthusiastic epicures and budding foodies engaged in a wide variety of offerings, ranging from the celebrated Balanced Plate Scavenger Hunt to hands-on cooking classes at the James Beard Foundation Future Foodies Pavilion featuring a variety of food choices taught by professional chefs. Families enjoyed live music, a dance party, and many flavorful activities designed to inspire a future generation of healthful eaters as well as support a charity dedicated to the reduction of childhood obesity– The Alliance for a Healthier Generation.

 

 

 

A friendly character from DreamWork’s 3D Animated film Home entertained the little ones.
