Yummy Monsters: Kids Cooking — a cooking game for 2 to 6 year olds

What it is

A toy kitchen that eats its own washing-up

Eighteen stations. Eighteen real gestures.

Nothing here is a button that says “cook”. Each station asks for the movement the job actually needs, and the food answers back under the finger.

Slice with a swipe, stir in circles, sprinkle with taps
Shake the iPhone to scatter, tilt it to pour, blow at the screen to cool
Roll, peel, grate, fry, boil, spread, frost, stack, decorate, shape sushi
Every gesture has a plain tap alternative, so tiny hands never get stuck

Building a burger layer by layer in Yummy Monsters

The monsters do the reviewing.

Twenty-four of them, and they are honest customers. They sniff, chomp, cheer and dance, and a plate that came out a bit burnt is the funniest outcome of all — there is no way to lose, and no red cross anywhere in the game.

Taking a photo with a monster in Yummy Monsters

Not one word to read.

The whole game is pictures, sound and a friendly voice. Foxy shows the next step and your child copies it, which means a two-year-old plays alone, from the first tap, without a grown-up sitting alongside translating buttons.

Every instruction is spoken, never written
Eighteen languages, all of them fully voiced
The one screen with text on it is the one meant for you

Cakes, cookies and gingerbread houses in Yummy Monsters

Keep what you cook.

Finished dishes go into a photo album your child can flick through. Cooking also earns coins, which buy hats and outfits for Foxy, and stars, which fill the next surprise chest and raise the chef rank — all of it inside the game, with no money involved.

A photo album of every dish, kept inside the app
Hats, aprons and outfits to dress Foxy in
Ranks, surprise chests and a gallery of all 24 monsters
28 recipes to cook from scratch

Dressing up Foxy the chef in Yummy Monsters

Yummy Town

Twelve restaurants to open

The hot dog truck is open from the very first tap and stays free forever, with no subscription. The other eleven are what the subscription opens — stars are never spent on them, they go to the chef rank and the surprise chests instead.

Gingerbread House

Twenty-eight recipes across the twelve of them, from margherita pizza to a gingerbread house — and twenty-four monsters queuing up to eat them.

Eighteen languages

Every language, fully voiced

Because there is nothing written for a child to read, a translated menu would be useless — the language has to be spoken. So all eighteen are: Foxy talks, the monsters react, and every single step is said out loud, with a voice cast separately for each language. The written parts, which only a grown-up ever sees, follow Apple’s own wording for that language.

Safe is a design decision, not a promise

🚫

No ads at all

No banners, no pop-ups, no rewarded video, no promotion of our other apps inside the game.

🔒

Nothing collected

No account, no analytics, no third-party code. The app makes no network requests of its own.

Grown-up gate

Settings, subscriptions and saving photos ask for an adult year of birth, which is never stored.

⏳

Play timer

Set a limit and Foxy closes the kitchen himself, so you are not the one taking the iPhone away.

Subscription

One subscription, written out in full

There is exactly one thing to buy in Yummy Monsters, and it can only be reached by a grown-up who has passed the gate. Here are its name, its length and its price, with nothing hidden further down.

Yummy Monsters Premium — an auto-renewing subscription that opens the rest of the town: the other eleven restaurants and every recipe in them. It comes in two plans, and only one of them can be active at a time.

Yummy Monsters Monthly

$14.99

for 1 month, renewing every month

Yummy Monsters Yearly

$69.99

for 12 months, renewing every year
about $5.83 a month

One restaurant is free forever. The hot dog truck, with its recipes and its monsters, needs no subscription and never expires.
What the subscription adds: the remaining eleven restaurants, with the 25 recipes and the 21 further monster guests who come to eat in them.
What it does not add, because it is already free: Foxy’s wardrobe, the surprise chests, the chef ranks, the passport and the picture album. Costumes are bought with the coins earned by cooking and chests are opened with stars — never with money.
Free trial: new subscribers get 3 days free. If it is not cancelled at least 24 hours before the trial ends, it turns into the plan chosen and is charged then.
It renews automatically until cancelled. To cancel, open Settings on the device, tap your name at the top (Apple ID), then Subscriptions, and cancel there. Do it at least 24 hours before the current period ends.
Payment is taken by Apple, charged to your Apple ID when you confirm the purchase. We never see or hold a payment method.
Prices shown are for the United States App Store. Your own region and currency may differ; the App Store shows your real price before you confirm anything.
Nothing can be bought on this website. There is no purchase button here and never will be — the subscription exists only inside the app, behind the parental gate.

The legal bits. By subscribing you accept our Terms of Use; what we do and do not do with data is set out in the Privacy Policy. If a purchase happened that you did not intend, the refund page explains how to ask Apple for the money back.

Questions

The things parents actually ask

Does my child need to be able to read?

No. There is not a single word for a child to read anywhere in the game. Pictures, sound and Foxy’s voice carry every instruction, which is exactly why it works for two-year-olds.

Are the monsters frightening?

No. They are round, bright and silly, they wobble and giggle, and the worst thing that happens is that one of them eats a slightly burnt pancake and finds it hilarious.

Does it work without an internet connection?

Yes, completely. Everything is inside the app, so it plays on a plane, in the car or on a holiday connection that has given up.

Can my child spend money by accident?

No. The only thing to buy is the subscription, and it is behind a gate that asks for an adult year of birth. The payment itself is then authenticated by Apple against your Apple ID. You can also turn in-app purchases off entirely in Screen Time — the parents page shows how.

What do you collect about my child?

Nothing. There is no account, no analytics and no third-party code in the app, and it makes no network requests of its own. Our App Store privacy card says Data Not Collected.

Which devices does it run on?

iPhone and iPad. The game is landscape and the layout is drawn larger on iPad rather than simply stretched.

Can I limit how long it is played for?

Yes. The Parent Zone has a play timer — set the minutes and Foxy announces that the kitchen is closing when the time is up.

Which age is it really for?

Two to six. It is rated 4+ and listed in the App Store Kids Category under Ages 5 & Under, with six-year-olds at the upper edge of who still enjoys it.

Cook it, serve it,
watch it vanish.
