SKH Dietetics Food Mahjong

What is Food Mahjong

Food Mahjong is an engaging, interactive game that empowers seniors with essential nutrition knowledge for healthy ageing. Players learn about maintaining adequate daily intake of protein, calcium, vitamins, and minerals whilst having fun.

How to Play

Food Mahjong combines the familiar mechanics of traditional mahjong with nutrition education. Players use colourful game cards and classic mahjong calls like 'Chi' and 'Pong' to collect the right combination of nutritious foods to win.

The game accommodates 2-4 players and includes a comprehensive game manual and instructional video. It's perfect for Active Ageing Centres, Community Centres, and other community venues.

"What a clever way to teach nutrition! Even though I don't know mahjong, I picked up Food Mahjong after just one round. It kept me engaged throughout. Now I can play with friends at the Active Ageing Centre!"Madam Devi, 65
