LaLa Lunchbox

LaLa Lunchbox is a fun and easy way for kids to plan and pack lunches with their parents. It empowers your kids, teaches them to make smarter food choices and helps them learn about advance planning.
Your kids get to personalize and design their lunchboxes with fun monsters and colors, and then plan their lunches for a whole week at a time. They simply swipe their choices into their lunchbox from a large selection of fruits, vegetables, proteins, and snacks. Along the way, they learn that a balanced lunch includes items from each category. Parents can easily personalize and edit the items available to their kids.
