Board Game: Mercado
Mercado is a board game that can be student led and easily integrated into the classroom, indoor recess, or afterschool activities to make learning about food fun and meaningful.
Mercado encourages students to discover, plan, and problem-solve as they collect the ingredients and kitchen equipment on their recipe card, and race to be the first to check out. With movement cards, action spaces, and twists like teleports and blocked tills, every round is full of surprises. This game is perfect for building food literacy and sparking curiosity through playful exploration.
