With all the talk about the importance of healthy eating for kids these days, you could be excused for going crazy in the supermarket aisles, trying to figure out what to feed them!

This year at the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival’s Connex Sizzle! – Melbourne’s biggest backyard barbeque – as part of the Global Char Grill Showcase down by the river, parents and children will have the chance to join in fun filled activities; meet famous sporting stars; AND learn all about healthy choices for kids.

Joining with the Heat Beads® Company, Young Gourmet, will be demonstrating healthy BBQ alternatives for kids, every hour from 12.30pm until 5.30pm on the day.

Amongst the many highlights in the Artplay area next to the Global Char Grill stage, will be AFL Auskick activities, face painting and show bags.

Best of all, this is a great community event where the whole family can experience healthy char grill BBQ fare from around the globe!

Come along on Saturday March 14, 12 – 9PM down by the riverside at Federation Square. Entry is FREE.
