YummiSquad turns mealtimes into a game you and your child play together, built on the feeding approach dietitians call "adult provides, child decides." You quietly curate what is on offer. Your child spins the wheel, chooses, and decides how brave to be. TWO DECISION WHEELS A Mystery Salad wheel and a Main Meal wheel, loaded only with foods you switched on. Big, high-contrast, and made for little fingers aged 3 to 6. A SQUAD BUDDY THEY INVENT Your child creates their own animated teammate - creature, color, outfit, energy - who cheers every brave try and dances when the beans add up. BRAVERY BEANS, NOT CLEAN PLATES Every step up the tasting ladder counts: looked, touched, smelled, licked, one bite, three bites. Beans reward the brave act of trying, never how much was eaten - and a refusal never costs a thing. THE DISCOVERY GREENHOUSE Each food grows its own honest progress, grounded in the research that young children often need many relaxed, no-pressure tries before they warm to something new. It shows a range, never a countdown, and never reads "done." FOR THE GROWN-UPS Behind a parental gate: curate both wheels, add your own recipes, plan the week, and let the grocery list build itself from what you planned - with pantry check-off so it never balloons. Plus an honest progress readout that reports what your child DID, not what they "like." SAFE AND PRIVATE BY DESIGN No ads, no third-party trackers, no location, and no photo is ever uploaded or stored. Choking-safety guidance is built in. Export or delete everything at any time. SQUAD PASS (optional subscription) The whole kid loop is free forever - both wheels, Bravery Beans, every earned Victory Dance, the Buddy's live words of encouragement, the recipe library, the weekly calendar and the grocery list. Squad Pass adds web recipe importing, more than one child, the full progress history, and extra Greenhouse accessories. - $2.99 per month or $26.99 per year, after a 3-day free trial - Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation; it renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage it any time in Settings YummiSquad is a playful feeding-support app for families, not a medical or therapy tool. If you are worried about your child's eating or growth, please talk to your pediatrician.
