How to ensure a complete meal for your child when he is away from home, without risking a food disaster? How can you keep food fresh when your child is on a school trip, when it's hot outside? The solution is the children's lunch box: a box specifically designed so that the little ones can carry their lunch or snack everywhere, safely, cool and intact. You don't know the principle of the children's lunch box yet? Find out more about it and choose the ideal model for your child, with the possibility of personalising it by writing his or her first name. You'll soon wonder how you ever lived without one!

What is a children's lunch box?
A children's lunch box is a box designed to contain ready-to-eat food and meals, and to take them with you when you travel. Thanks to his lunch box, your little one can take his breakfast, lunch, snack or dinner everywhere with him: school, school outings, holidays, picnics, snacks during sports activities, a day at grandma and grandpa's... It has never been so easy to carry his snack!
The principle of the lunch box comes from Anglo-Saxon countries and Japan (where it is more commonly known as a "bento"). In the United States, it has been an essential accessory for schoolchildren since the beginning of the 20th century: the child's lunchbox allows them to take their lunch to school, but it also represents a concrete link with the home and with the parents who have prepared its contents with care and love. This is why, in Uncle Sam's country, its choice at the beginning of the year is at least as important as that of a schoolbag - that's saying something!

Why opt for a children's lunchbox?
The advantages of a children's lunchbox are manifold: firstly, it is a practical solution for keeping food intact; but it is also a way of guaranteeing that your little one will eat better quality meals in optimal conditions. Let's explore these advantages in detail!

Safe food with a children's lunch box
A children's lunch box allows you to transport food safely and to keep your meals intact. Only a naïve parent would think that their little angel would take the time to carefully store their lunch box when they arrive at their destination. This is certainly not the case! Get used to the idea that your child's lunchbox will be carried around, shaken in all directions; that it will take a beating; that it will remain for a good part of the morning in the middle of the heat; and that it will end up in a friend's bag or in any other unlikely place.
As you can see, planning a meal away from home for your little one is a constant challenge. A children's lunch box makes it possible to meet this challenge at all levels:
- Hermetically sealed box (no peas that go missing, no sauces that spill out, no cakes that take flight).
- Removable ice pack (to keep food cool).
- Easy and practical opening and closing system, easy to handle for the little ones (and without the risk of getting your fingers stuck).
- Lightweight (just 360 grams without the ice pack).

The guarantee of a quality meal
The other big advantage of the children's lunchbox is the guarantee of a good meal. Firstly, because the ingredients are selected by you - we're not pointing the finger at school canteens and cafeterias, but we have to admit that "home-made" is much better! Secondly, because a children's lunch box is characterised by its organisation in modular compartments, allowing the food to be separated and cutlery to be made available.
In short, the children's lunch box guarantees the quality of the meals. Let's summarise its advantages in a few key points:
- Modular compartments (three separate compartments to keep the food separate).
- Capacity of 1,000 ml (because these little creatures have an appetite!).
- Microwave compatibility (to ensure hot meals almost anywhere).
The other good news is that the children's lunch box is dishwasher safe. You'll appreciate the time savings!

How to choose your child's lunch box?
Thanks to Étiquettes-Folies, you can choose a solid, watertight, secure, practical and modular children's lunchbox from a selection of standard models (plain lunchboxes or Japanese-style bentos) or decorated according to your child's taste. For the latter, we offer a choice of twenty or so themes (unicorns, dinosaurs, football, firemen, mermaids, pirates, flowers, etc.) and the possibility of personalising your child's lunch box by writing his or her first name, so that they can easily find their lunch box. Up to six colours are available depending on the model: blue, red, parma, green, old pink and petrol.
Please note that all our lunch boxes are made of Bisphenol A free plastic, for the safety of your children.
To complete your child's lunch box, let yourself be tempted by a customisable carrying bag with drawstrings or a tote bag, made of Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 certified cotton canvas, to be personalised with a name or text. And don't forget the drink, opt for a personalised isothermal bottle!
