The b.box lunchbox is a clever lunch box with compartments, designed by the Australian brand b.box to help children eat independently. On this page you will find the b.box lunchboxes for boys, in colours such as Blue Blaze, Midnight, Ocean Breeze, Graphite, Emerald Forest, Chill Out, Lemon Twist, Lemon Sherbet, Blue Slate and Spearmint. There are two models: the MINI for toddlers and preschoolers, and the large lunchbox from 5 years. Below you can see the differences at a glance.
MINI or large: the differences
- b.box MINI lunchbox: from 3 years, 18.5 x 17 x 6.7 cm, 1 litre capacity. With a flexible fruit compartment, two leak-proof compartments and a sliding divider. Fits in the b.box lunch bag.
- b.box lunchbox: from 5 years, 23.5 x 21.5 x 6.5 cm. With a large compartment for a whole sandwich or bagel, a removable sandwich tray, an included ice pack, a flexible fruit compartment and leak-proof seals.
In short: the MINI is ideal for small portions and snacks, the large lunchbox for a full school lunch.
Why a lunch box with compartments?
In an ordinary lunch box everything gets mixed up: the sandwich gets wet from the fruit and the crackers break. In a b.box, everything has its own place. Your child sees at a glance what there is and often eats a more varied lunch. Because the compartments seal tightly, you can also pack yoghurt, hummus or a dip, which makes vegetables instantly more appealing.
Which suits which age?
For nursery, playgroup and reception, the MINI is usually big enough: a small sandwich, some fruit and a snack. Does your child eat lunch at school, or have a big appetite? Then choose the large lunchbox from about 5 years. Children who stay for lunch often benefit from the included ice pack too.
The b.box MINI lunchbox
The MINI is compact and light, with just enough room for a toddler's or preschooler's lunch. The flexible fruit compartment has a stretchy seal, so it even fits a whole mandarin or small apple. The two leak-proof compartments suit purée, yoghurt or a dip. With the sliding divider you adjust the size of the compartments. A sturdy handle and a big clip make it easy to open and close the box independently.
The large b.box lunchbox
The large lunchbox is meant for children from 5 years. The large compartment fits a whole sandwich, bagel or wrap. Take out the sandwich tray and there is room for pasta or salad. Underneath the tray sits a gel ice pack that keeps food cooler and fresher for longer. With the movable divider you make room for a banana or wrap. The leak-proof silicone seals keep wet food such as watermelon and yoghurt in place. Wash this box by hand; it is freezer safe.
Colours for boys
The b.box lunchboxes for boys come in fresh and cool shades: deep blue (Midnight, Blue Slate), blue with red (Blue Blaze), sea green and blue (Ocean Breeze), grey (Graphite), green (Emerald Forest, Spearmint), light blue (Chill Out) and yellow (Lemon Twist, Lemon Sherbet). Almost every colour exists in both the MINI and the large version, so your child can grow up with the same colour.
A set in the same colour
b.box also makes snack boxes and drink bottles in the same colours. Combine the lunchbox with a b.box snack box and a b.box drink bottle for a complete set. With create a school kit you get a discount: 5% on 2 items, 10% on 3 items and 15% on 4 or more items.
Replacement parts
Lost a seal or ice pack? There is no need to buy a new lunch box straight away. Under lunch box accessories and replacement parts you will find separate parts. That way your b.box lunchbox lasts for years.
Cleaning
After use, remove the seals, fruit compartment and divider and wash everything with warm water and a little washing-up liquid. Let the parts dry well before putting them back, which prevents mould. Check the washing instructions for each model: the large lunchbox is hand wash only.
Tips for the school lunch
- Put heavy items, such as a sandwich, in the large compartment and small, wet bites in the leak-proof compartments.
- Do not pack loose liquids such as water or milk in the box; that is what a drink bottle is for.
- Put the ice pack of the large lunchbox in the freezer the night before.
- Practise opening the clip at home, so it comes naturally at school.
In the lunch bag
The MINI fits perfectly in the b.box lunch bag. On warm days, an insulated lunch bag keeps everything cool for longer, especially with the ice pack inside.
