In a time where childhood obesity is an alarming problem, Fizzy’s Lunch Lab is a new and fun media property featuring funny characters that entertain and educate families about the importance of good nutrition, a balanced diet, and physical activity. LunchLab.com will feature animated shorts, recipes, food facts, and interactive games that teach kids to make smart food choices. The For Parents section will feature family activities, additional recipes, as well as a Twitter feed linking to additional health tips, recipes, and articles. Starting in November, PBSKidsGo.org will release a new animated short (with an original corresponding recipe) every week for 40 straight weeks.
PBS formally announced the press release today along with the Lunch Lab preview site.
