Get that energy!
Grain group foods are full of carbohydrates.
Carbohydrates give our body the energy that we need to learn and play.
You used that energy when we were just moving/exercising a minute ago!

Go for the Grain Group!
Foods in the grain group come from plants too. There are many kinds of grain plants: wheat, oats, rye, barley, rice (and more).
