When children are young and just starting to learn about food, it is important to get them interested in a variety of flavors, colors, and textures of food. The preschool and elementary school years are the perfect time for teaching kids about healthy eating.
TURNING HEALTHY EATING INTO A FUN GAME
Kids love games. And they especially love games that are apps on their mobile devices.
So why not turn their natural love for apps into an opportunity to teach them about healthy eating?
HuePets By HueTrition is a must-have kid’s game app that will get your kids excited to eat more vegetables.
MEET HUEY AND THE HUEPETS™ APP
HuePets™ is a FREE nutrition game for kids that they can play on their mobile devices.
In the game, kids scan real-life food to “feed” their HuePet which unlocks prizes and makes their pet grow from a little egg to a HueMaster.
As a parent myself, I’ve found kids LOVE playing with apps that make characters grow and evolve.
The clever idea behind HuePets™ is to motivate kids to feed themselves and their HuePets healthy foods.
HuePets™ makes nutrition easy to understand for young kids. By teaching kids to eat a rainbow of colors, you can talk about how different fruits and vegetables contain different vitamins and nutrients. As they “feed” their HuePet a variety of colors, they can visualize their pet and themselves growing and staying healthy.
The app allows you as a parent to set rewards customized rewards for your kids to help motivate them towards their goals.
HUEPETS 2.0 BRINGS MORE CHARACTERS AND MORE FUN
We introduced HuePets here at 5 Minutes for Mom back in 2017 when it first launched.
And in 2018, we shared more ideas for how to get kids to eat vegetables including using the HuePets app to turn healthy eating into a game.
Now, we are excited to help celebrate HuePets turning 2! Yes, HuePets Version 2.0 launched in August with new characters, potions, and more.
The app works alongside a website that allows medical professionals, teachers, family, and friends to monitor a child’s dashboard of colorful choices and even assign rewards for their progress.
To celebrate the HuePets 2.0 release, HueTrition is releasing the First Edition HuePets Bundle!
