Let's Move!

Is Michelle Obama's campaign to end childhood obesity in the United States, and part of that campaign is the Apps for Healthy Kids competition. Here at Retronyms we're doing our part to help promote healthy behavior - we submitted an app.

The game's called Food Find, and it's kind of like what would happen if Seek 'n Spell left spelling class and decided it wanted to be an app for health class instead. Like Seek 'n Spell, you play outside and run around a large park or field. But rather than collecting letters to spell words, you collect foods and get points for matching foods in the same food group.

It's only available on the iPhone right now, but it's in the App Store and is free to download!
