The significance of “Il Gioco di inOrto”

Launched in 2012, “Il Gioco di inOrto” is an initiative by the Fondazione Louis Bonduelle designed to instill the importance of vegetable consumption in children. The program aims to educate young participants about maintaining a balanced diet and the importance of not wasting food and resources. By engaging over 4,000 children in the past 13 years, the initiative has successfully collaborated with Città del Sole to reach families across Italy. This partnership has allowed children to explore crucial topics like sustainability and healthy eating in an engaging and educational manner.

The tour’s itinerary and educational activities

Following the Mantova event, the “Il Gioco di inOrto” tour will stop in Reggio Emilia on April 5, Bergamo on May 17, and Lucca on June 14. During these events, children will have the opportunity to build an actual garden and learn the significance of integrating vegetables into their daily diet. The activities include soil preparation, planting, caring for, and harvesting seedlings. Participants will be divided into teams and guided by expert animators through interactive games that highlight the value of so-called waste elements, teaching them the impact of their actions within the food context.

Participation details and structure

The event is free and open to all children between the ages of 6 and 12. To ensure an optimal experience, children will be divided into shifts within the store, allowing for effective management of participant numbers and ensuring that each child can fully enjoy the proposed activities. This structured approach guarantees that the learning experience remains engaging and beneficial for all attendees.
