Simple Bites readers are in for a treat with this next giveaway from Menu In A Box Meal Planning. With the mission to simplify menu planning for all families, founder Ruthie Chant does just that and more with her gorgeous, comprehensive website.

Menu in a Box Online Meal Planning is a subscription membership site created by a Mom for busy families to make meal planning simple, and that’s why I love it so much.

Everything you need is right there, from meal planning tools, downloads, recipes, how-to tips, kids activities, birthday and lunchbox planning, nutrition tips and plenty of inspiration. No need for time-consuming Google searches!

So, what does a $120 yearly subscription to Menu In A Box Meal Planing give you?

• An absolutely fantastic children section to inspire your kids to get in the kitchen and create, not to mention downloadable educational activities that help to teach your kids to meal plan and develop healthy habits from a young age. I LOVE this section; obviously Ruthie and I agree that, yes, pre-schoolers CAN cook too!
