Description
The player helps serve the kids their lunches. The player has one minute to serve as many kids as they can. When a kid arrives at the serving counter, they will ask for a certain amount of a certain food. Each kid holds a tray that has areas representing fractional amounts. The player clicks on the food that the kid wants, and then clicks on the area on the tray that has the same fraction that the kid asked for. The fractions on the trays can range from one fourth to one whole, and the trays can be shaped like either circles or rectangles. If the player doesn't act for a certain amount of time, Miss Pickles will appear to suggest that they move more quickly.

Difficulty Level Differences

 * Level one: All trays have numbers on them to show what fraction each portion represents.
 * Level two: Some trays have numbers, some do not.
 * Level three: All trays do not have numbers.
