Description
This two-tier kids' bento lunch box carries the Fairies in the Garden print across its lid: little fairies with pink and orange wings dance among daisies, forget-me-nots, lily of the valley and fluttering butterflies on a deep teal ground. Beneath the printed lid sit two stacking teal tiers trimmed in cream, and a bright red elastic strap wraps round the whole box to keep everything together. It measures 17cm long, 9cm wide and 8cm tall, and weighs just 0.18KG, so it slips easily into a school bag or rucksack without adding bulk.
The two tiers bring a little order to a packed lunch. One has a cream divider to keep a sandwich apart from crunchy snacks, and the other has its own inner lid, so berries or chopped fruit are kept covered. A fork and spoon come with the box and sit neatly in a cream tray inside, so there is no hunting for cutlery when lunchtime comes round. We love it for school days, picnics in the park, trips to the seaside and long car journeys, and the cheerful garden scene makes it a happy pick for anyone who loves fairies, flowers and butterflies.
The base, lid and middle are made of plastic, and the elastic strap is nylon and plastic, which keeps the whole box light to carry. When it comes to washing up, the base can go on the top rack of the dishwasher, the lid is for washing by hand, and the box should never go in the microwave, so warm food is best heated on a plate first. Dry each part well before stacking the tiers back together. For an easy morning, pack it the night before, fasten the strap over the lid and pop it in the fridge, ready to grab on the way out of the door.
