👩‍🍳 Kitchen

Walking around town makes Lily hungry, and the kitchen at home is where she gets her energy back. The kitchen is simple on purpose: big picture buttons, one tap per treat, and Lily says thank you.

The menu

How energy works

Lily has an energy bar on screen. Walking to places on the town map uses a little energy — a short walk to the Park costs less than the long walk to the Beach or Grandma's house. When the bar runs low, Lily says she's hungry, and a trip home to the kitchen fills it up again. Food never costs anything and there is no way to run out of it.

For young children this is a gentle first taste of planning: "we want to go to the beach, and that's far, so let's have pancakes first." Nothing bad happens if they forget — Lily simply asks for a snack.

What children practise here

• Counting and comparing: pancakes give more energy than an apple. Older children like to work out how many apples make one bowl of soup.
• Food words and categories: fruit, meals and drinks, and a natural moment to talk about what they like to eat themselves.
• Taking care of someone: the game frames eating as looking after Lily, which younger players take very seriously.

Ideas for playing together

• Plan a day out: pick three places on the map and decide what Lily should eat before leaving.
• Ask which snack your child would choose for themselves — and whether Lily agrees.
• After playing, make one of the menu items together in your real kitchen.
