Introduction

From field research, we Found that grocery shopping with children was especially negative and frustrating for all parties involved. With ScanMe, kids can learn to eat healthy while their parents shop - all while staying occupied with the digital interface. Scan Me is a grocery-shopping game for ages 2-5. By scanning the produce and goods their parents pick up in the grocery store, children can help their on-screen character grow and develop. Healthy produce earns children points that they can use to grow and customize their character. Scan me keeps kids occupied, parents happier, and encourages healthy eating for everyone.
