These [fun food boxes for kids](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/playtime-lunch-box) were created for Appy Food & Drinks by Clooci Creative to serve as the brand's new range of snack boxes. The origami-style boxes feature lovable characters like [Spongebob](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oodles-of-doodles) and [Peppa Pig](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/home-chef-x-peppa-pig), which are vibrantly printed on all sides of the boxes.

On the top flap inside the box, there's a small menu for kids to see what food and drinks are available. The bottom of the box serves as a tray where kids can stash small treasures and complete coloring activities, mazes and word games. Like little lunchboxes, the snack boxes are equipped with handles to make transportation ultra easy. Although the boxes could easily be recycled, they would make pretty good keepsakes for kids too, especially if they're big fans of these cartoon characters.
