Harmonizing health & biodiversity, our melodic food for health rhymes initiative can ignite kid’s love for diverse foods in a fun and engaging way

Srinivasa K. Rao, Ph.D.

Recognizing that children’s limited diet impacts both their health and the planet’s biodiversity, we propose to foster a love for diverse foods through the universal language of music. We created nursery rhymes each featuring a different food item, set to familiar tunes. We hope these rhymes will not only educate children about the nutritional benefits of various foods but also stimulate demand for diverse crops, ultimately contributing to biodiversity.

This initiative promises a fun, engaging way to cultivate healthier habits in children while safeguarding our planet.

Chia Seed: Chia Seeds’ tiny might, in every sprinkle, a healthful sight!

Tune: “London Bridge Is Falling Down”

🎵 Chia Seeds, tiny and black,

A nutritional powerhouse, never lack.

Sprinkled or soaked, they’re here to stay,

With omega-3 and fiber, leading the way.

🎵 Packed with antioxidants, a healthful team,

Chia Seeds offer benefits, it’s no dream.
