Food Rhymes for Health—Broad Beans 26/365.
Harmonizing health & biodiversity, our melodic food for health rhymes initiative can ignite kid’s love for diverse foods in a fun and engaging way
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.
Broad Beans — Bountiful bites of broad bean brilliance!
Tune: “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star”
🎵 “Broad beans, broad beans, oh so green,
Rich in fiber, protein queen.
Iron, calcium, you provide,
In our bodies, you reside. 🎵
🎵 Broad beans, broad beans, in a row,
Vitamins B, make us glow.
Potassium for heart health too,
Broad beans, we do cherish you. 🎵
🎵 Broad beans, broad beans, full of might,
Your antioxidants fight the fight.
Lowering cholesterol, you’re a star,
Broad beans, oh how healthy you are. 🎵
🎵 Broad beans, broad beans, in our sight,
You make our health future bright.
In our meals, you play a part,
Broad beans, you’re good for our heart.”
