Broccoli is seldom accused of being sexy. But it is, of course, good for you. If you (or your kids) don't like eating your vegetables, the pep talk fun of Foodplay may be just the spoonful of sugar you need to chomp down the cruciferous stuff. The troupe employs juggling, characters, music and magic to help add verve to the vegetable kingdom, and they bring drama, snacks and a book (Janey Junkfood's Fresh Adventure, by Foodplay creator Barbara Storper) to the Eric Carle Museum for your healthy pleasure this week.
June 7, 11 a.m. and 1 p.m., Eric Carle Museum, 125 West Bay Rd., Amherst, (413) 658-1100.
