Featuring flashing LED lights and the motivating message to "Play Hard to Eat Smart", these boards help schools promote both physical activity and smart food choices. Ideal for school cafeterias, these boards are a fun and engaging way to reinforce the connection between staying active and making nutritious meal selections.

​Since 2012, Green Edge Systems has been a pioneer in developing innovative menu board solutions specifically for school food services. Their offerings include LED Flashing Menu Boards, a unique segment of digital menu boards, and MyPlate dry erase boards, both of which have become vital tools in promoting healthy eating in school cafeterias. Serving over a million students daily in thousands of schools nationwide, Green Edge Systems’ menu boards not only deliver essential meal information but also help increase participation in school lunch programs by making healthy options more visible and engaging to students.


"Play Hard to Eat Smart" LED Flashing Menu Boards – Promoting Active Lifestyles and Healthy Eating in SchoolsThe "Play Hard to Eat Smart" LED Flashing Menu Boards from Green Edge Systems are designed to encourage students to embrace a healthy, balanced lifestyle by combining physical activity with smart eating choices. The flashing LED lights draw attention to the message, reminding students that to "Play Hard"—whether in sports, recess, or physical education—they also need to "Eat Smart" by fueling their bodies with nutritious foods. These boards help schools promote a holistic approach to student well-being, emphasizing the importance of both exercise and healthy meals.


Key Features:
  • "Play Hard to Eat Smart" Message: The motivating message encourages students to make the connection between physical activity and smart food choices. It serves as a reminder that eating nutritious meals gives them the energy they need to be active and excel in both academics and physical activities. This message helps promote a balanced lifestyle in a fun and engaging way.
  • Flashing LED Lights for Maximum Engagement: The flashing LED lights make the message board highly visible in the school cafeteria, ensuring that students take notice of the healthy living message. The lights add an element of excitement to the board, helping students stay engaged with the concept of fueling their bodies with smart food choices in order to "play hard."
  • Customizable Meal Displays: In addition to promoting the "Play Hard to Eat Smart" message, these boards can be customized to display daily meal options, specials, or other important cafeteria information. This flexibility allows schools to incorporate both the nutrition message and practical meal information, ensuring students stay informed about their choices.


MyPlate and Pick 3 Concept:The "Play Hard to Eat Smart" LED Flashing Menu Boards can also incorporate the MyPlate guidelines and Pick 3 concept, which encourage students to choose at least 1/2 cup of fruits and vegetables along with two other food groups. This visual reminder complements the message, helping students understand that making smart food choices, including fruits and vegetables, is key to maintaining energy for physical activities and overall well-being.


Designed for School Cafeterias:The "Play Hard to Eat Smart" LED Flashing Menu Boards are specifically designed for use in school cafeterias, where encouraging healthy food choices is a daily goal. These boards not only help promote healthy eating but also remind students that a balanced diet is essential for staying active and energized throughout the day. The flashing lights and engaging message make the cafeteria experience more interactive, while reinforcing positive habits.


Wall Mounted or Freestanding Stand Options:Schools can choose from two display formats for the "Play Hard to Eat Smart" LED Flashing Menu Boards:
  • Wall Mounting: The wall-mounted option is ideal for placing in key areas of the cafeteria, such as near serving lines or entrances, ensuring that students see the message and take it to heart as they make their meal choices.
  • Freestanding Stands: The freestanding stands offer flexibility and can be moved to different locations in the cafeteria. Available in single- or double-sided formats, these stands ensure maximum visibility of the message from different angles, helping to capture the attention of more students.
No Ongoing Fees or IT Support Required:
As with all Green Edge Systems products, the "Play Hard to Eat Smart" LED Flashing Menu Boards require no ongoing fees or IT support.

​If your district has already installed digital menu boards in some schools but is hesitant to expand to more - or to all schools - due to the high costs involved, we’d like to suggest a solution worth considering.
And if you're just now considering installing menu boards for the first time - but find yourself hesitating due to shrinking resources and the long-term cost of traditional digital systems - there’s a way to move forward without the financial burden.
Menu boards play a critical role:
  • They help satisfy USDA visibility requirements
  • They increase student participation
  • They support wellness goals through daily nutrition education
But expanding digital menu board use can be expensive - both up front and over time.


A Smarter Menu Board Option Designed for Real-World CafeteriasGreen Edge Systems’ LED Flashing Menu Boards offer the same high-visibility impact - without the screens, subscriptions, power infrastructure, or ongoing tech support.
* Choose wall-mounted or A-Frame models with integrated rechargeable batteries
* No power outlet required – perfect for entrances and high-traffic café areas
* Installed at student eye level, where choices are made
* Custom mascot headers and healthy eating slogans
* Fully USDA-compliant
* One-time purchase - no monthly or yearly fees, no IT involvement needed
