MyPlate Flip Wall Toy

Playscapes products are designed and manufactured specifically for healthcare facilities where infection control standards are most stringent. The MyPlate Flip Wall Toy is built from commercial-grade materials and should be included in the same cleaning protocols as furniture and other high-contact surfaces. Frequent cleaning with most commercial disinfectant solutions will not damage or diminish any product finish. Avoid ammonia-based cleaners on acrylic surfaces, which can cause cloudiness over time. Hardware and assembly instructions are included.

The MyPlate format is a standard nutrition education tool used by pediatricians and dietitians, which means this panel reinforces content that staff may already be discussing with families during visits. Children waiting for appointments are exposed to the diagram in an engaging, visual format before the conversation even begins. The images of active children connect nutrition to movement in a way that is appropriate and motivating for the preschool through early elementary age range.

WIC offices are a natural fit for the MyPlate panel, the nutrition education mission of the program aligns directly with what the panel communicates. Families waiting with young children see the MyPlate diagram presented in a child-friendly, visually engaging format, which complements the counseling and education that happens during WIC appointments. The 39-inch height makes the panel visible and readable from a seated adult's position as well as a standing child's.

The MyPlate diagram is part of national nutrition education standards and appears in school health and PE curricula. Mounted in a cafeteria, health classroom, or school lobby, the flip panel gives children a physical, interactive version of a chart they will encounter throughout their education. The images of active children connect the nutrition message to physical health in a format that is more engaging than a static poster.
