It’s the only app like it. You can plan with the kids, in a fun environment, what to pack them for lunch. figuring out what to make is always the most annoying part of making their school meals, and this app not only gets the kids involved (as we all know is vital to the success of the meal actually being consumed) but is a great planner that helps with checking what we already have and making that grocery list. With my child having a morning snack, a lunch and an afternoon snack that needs to be organized as such at this age, I originally found it restricting to organize. I sent an email to the support team to see if they could make it a little more customizable and not only did they respond within a few hours they also gave me a great idea on how to make the app work for me. Instead of using one monster for each child, we can use three monsters for each child. I label each monster ‘KidName Snack #1’, ‘KidName Lunch’ and ‘KidName Snack #2’ - that way the kids can choose an apple and granola bar for their morning snack, and cheese and celery sticks for their afternoon snack and I am clear on how to pack the bag. It’s a great idea and super helpful. Thanks for creating!

I really live this app and it’s really good, although... I would really appreciate if we were able to add other food items too. I hope they change that but other than that I do recommend getting this app!

The app worked great for about 3 days. My daughter was able to go in and choose her launches for 2 weeks. The first couple of days she could use the app to prepare her lunches, then is just started closing as soon as her name is picked.

Should be allowed to have a variety of items for lunch PLUS snacks as well. It really limits the child on what to choose for his snack period and lunch period. I'll give 5 stars if they can change this!

When I heard about this app I was excited, finally some fun ideas for the lunch bag. Sadly it is just a poor example of product marketing, I assume to be aimed directly at children. Sponsorship is a great thing, but this could have been a lot better if more creative combinations/recipes were offered, and you left the product placement on the sponsor boards. Deleted the app.

My kids love the idea and were very excited the set up their first weeks lunches. Customer support is great! Very helpful & quick to respond. Helped me with the sync.

There are proteins and fruits and veggies... What about dairy and grains? And the app is full if what I can only guess are ads for prepackaged foods. Great idea but not going to work for my family.

The idea behind this app is pretty clever: kids lunch meal planning synched with a grocery list. Takes an often tedious routine and involves parent and child in a fun tech-savvy way. However, food choices are limited and there's an awful lot of processed meats and packages snacks. I suppose this is normal and ok for many people, but not everyone feeds their kids cold cut sandwiches for lunch 4-5 days a week. There were a couple of pasta choices, but I honestly can't see this being too useful to any families (like mine) who eat (for lack of a better word) ethnic food (the only non-western selection I saw was sushi). Anyway, it would be great if the app were more customizable. Somehow allow people to add their own food items to the list, possibly even take their own pictures. Like I said, good concept but only so-so execution BUT there's definitely room and potential for great improvements.

This app has a simple and clean aesthetic which makes it easy to use for kids and parents alike. My 4 year old just started kindergarten and this has made at least one part of the transition waaay easier than I anticipated. As part of our evening routine, we sit down, select what is going to go into her LaLa Lunchbox and than make and pack her real lunchbox together. What's great is that she is enjoying eating what she has helped assemble. If you are looking for an app to give guidance/direction on the food pyramid, or break items down into all possible categories (eg. Carbs, grains, starches etc...) this app will not meet those needs. It will however, provide parents (if they so choose) with a simple way to introduce and discuss the importance of proper nutrition with their young children. There are some nice additions and adjustments that can be made in the settings area which I suggest exploring and, if you have any comments or concerns, their email response time is AMAZING.

This will greatly ease some of the pain of packing lunches every day! Cute & simple interface, beautiful colors. A few more animations or images of the monster eating the lunch, or small awards for kids filling their box would be great. The kids find if fun so far; we'll see how long it lasts! A small suggestion for improvement - It would be REALLY helpful if I could permanently delete an item I've added, but no longer want. Or to be able to move it to a new category. ie: I accidentally put granola bars in the fruit category & there is no way to delete or move the item to the correct category. Otherwise, so far so good!
