Many children today face challenges in eating the right amount of food, which can lead to overeating, wasting food, and poor nutrition. Our Challenge-Based Learning project, CAPORTION, was created to help children learn about healthy portion sizes in an engaging way. The design features colourful portion cups, a digital calorie calculator, and a portable weight scale. These tools are simple to use and can be applied both at home and when travelling.

From our survey, we learned that most students wanted to improve their diet but were unsure about correct portion sizes. Using this feedback, we built and tested a child-friendly portioning system that encourages balanced meals and mindful eating. Responses from our trial showed that the product raised awareness and made healthy eating more approachable.

CAPORTION shows that teaching portion control can be both practical and fun, helping children build habits that support lifelong health.
