Educational short film about traffic accidents.
This is a 1996 sing-along VHS tape created by regional grocery store chain, Piggly Wiggly's "Piggly Pals Studio." A teacher starts things out by attempting to educate a bunch of 10-year-old preschoolers about nutrition. While, at first, this seems strange, their inclusion in the remedial class is soon justified by asinine responses to their teacher's simple, food-oriented question. None of the kids can properly identify even a single food group, but responses like "bubble gum" and "pickles" serve to illustrate that the two boys are a few steps behind either of their female classmates. Fortunately, the interaction garners the attention of "Inspector Quigley" and a giant grocery store mascot pig. The pair are bound and determined to tackle the seemingly insurmountable task of teaching the feeble kids their food groups.
A compelling presentation by Sue Dengate exploring how food additives and chemicals impact children's health, learning, and behaviour. The film combines insightful interviews with families and experts, offering support and information on managing food-related behavioural issues.
