Child Meal-Planning Apps

LaLa Lunchbox is a Menu Planning App for Parents and Kids

Knowing that parents are busy and kids aren't always easy to please, LaLa Lunchbox was developed as a menu planning app to help kids take more of an active role in preparing their own food.

With the app, kids are put to the task of choosing one fruit, vegetable, protein and one snack item to fill up their lunchbox for the day. During the process of mapping our meals for a week, kids are entertained with customizable colors, monster icons and sounds. With a food library built into the app, parents don't have to worry about creating a grocery list for the week.

By empowering kids to make their own food choices, LaLa Lunchbox makes kids more likely to eat what they've set out for themselves since there will be no surprises.
