There’s Science on Every Mat

VeggieMat™ is more than just mealtime fun: We’ve used four scientific studies in designing our mats to ensure every detail helps your kids eat more veg.

  • Involvement Encourages Eating

    Children who help prepare their meals, eat up to 76% more vegetables than those who don’t.

  • Colors Stimulate Interest

    Kids love variety, wanting as many as six different colors on their plate (in contrast to us boring adults who prefer just three!)

  • Playing Leads to Trying

    Playing with food actually helps pickier eaters try new things (but you might want to keep this a secret…).

  • Visual Appeal Is Important

    Kids eat more tasty-looking fruit than regular-looking fruit, and we’re sure it’s the same for veggies.
