Ask any parent what their biggest frustration is at meal-times,
and almost unanimously you will hear:
‘GETTING MY KIDS TO EAT THEIR FRUIT AND VEGGIES’.
You can plead, You can offer bribes, You may even threaten punishment
BUT it always seems such a struggle.
You may have even given up!

The Frugies provide ideas to parents on how to encourage,
inspire and motivate your children to eat their fruits and veggies.

The Frugies
• “We’re Coming To Dinner” A frame book
• Toddler Program for toddlers and parents
• Primary School/Kindergarten “Rainbow Day” workshop incursions
are three tools we have available to you to get your kids eating their fruits and veggies.





As parents you treasure your children and you want what’s best for them.
You know one of the best things you can do is give them healthy nutritious food that includes fruits and vegetables everyday.

You know, good nutrition is critical for your child’s short and long term health, including both their physical and cognitive development. Healthy eating habits learnt during childhood are usually continued throughout life and these healthy behaviours can help to reduce the risk of diseases such as, obesity, diabetes, iron deficiency anaemia and dental caries throughout the lifecycle.

You need a way to make eating fruits and vegetables exciting; a way to encourage your children to ask for fruit and veggies; an easier way to ensure your child’s health.


You want children who are healthy, full of vitamins and minerals that fruit and vegetables provide so that they

• Have plenty of energy
• Feel bright and alert
• Concentrate better at school
• Suffer fewer illnesses
• Have clear skin, bright eyes and shine hair

That’s where we come in:

We’re The Frugies. Exciting fun loving characters based on Fruit & Vegetables each with their own “magical power”. The Frugies live in the land of Frugopia, where the Fruit live in Fruitaria and the Vegetables live in Vegurbia. There is a common meeting place – The Salad Bowl, which is where The Frugies meet to play.

Our mission is to make healthy food choices fun for kids and help establish good eating habits that will stay with them forever.

We get kids interested and excited about eating their “greens” not too mention the other six colours of the rainbow.
