I don't freezer cook, I buy my groceries weekly and use them up because I cook from fresh veggies and don't use much from a can or a box. My crockpot is my best friend. I don't have a set menu and I strive to give the children variety but once I learn their tastes I kind of serve the same things every week but in a different order. I haven't had any complaints yet, but I don't believe children get bored with food, I believe as long as you give them a good variety and they are hungry, they will be happy.
