Great size for a toddler under 4-5. Not too big not too small so they can handle it themselves. The picture is so outstanding and cool. And the price is not inflated which is very good.

Small backpack for 5 year old
Perfect bag for my 5 year old to start school. Thick, padded, soft straps, lightweight, small size is excellent right now and internal pockets are just right to fit everything he needs. Even has "secret" pocket for house keys or money

Frequently Asked Questions About Lunch Boxes
The best kids lunch boxes in NZ combine a leak-proof seal, BPA-free materials and a child-friendly latch. Happy Kid's large bento lunch boxes have 4-6 compartments, fit neatly in school backpacks and are trusted by hundreds of Kiwi parents — a versatile pick for primary and intermediate school.
Yes. Every stainless steel bento lunch box in our range uses a silicone sealing ring plus either a snap-lock or clip closure, so yoghurt, curry and saucy foods stay put on the way to school or the office. We don't recommend full water submersion — the seal is for food, not a canteen.
We stock insulated lunch box bags that keep meals cool for hours on warm Kiwi days. Stainless steel insulated food jars — the thermal option that keeps soup, pasta and leftovers warm until lunchtime — are launching soon. Subscribe for first access.
For adult lunches, our 2L stainless steel bento lunch boxes are the pick — large enough for a hearty meal, with an optional soup bowl and cutlery. Several sets come with a matching insulated lunch bag, making them practical adult lunch boxes for commuting to the office or uni.
For primary school kids (5-11 years), a 1.2L-1.4L multi-compartment bento lunch box is the sweet spot — enough room for a sandwich, fruit, snack and a treat. Teens and adults typically need 1.8L-2L. All Happy Kid bento boxes list capacity and dimensions on the product page.
The stainless steel trays are top-rack dishwasher safe. For microwave use, remove the lid first and never microwave the stainless tray on its own — it sits inside the plastic outer shell. Tritan kids bento boxes are fully microwave, freezer and top-rack dishwasher safe. Per-product details are on each product page.
Both are food-grade and BPA-free. 316L contains added molybdenum, giving it higher corrosion resistance against acidic or salty foods — think tomato pasta, citrus or soy-based dressings. 316L is used in medical and marine-grade applications. Most of our stainless bento boxes use 304; our Misanbroo Big Bento is 316L.
Chill the lunch box in the fridge overnight, add an ice pack to the insulated bag in the morning, and use leak-proof compartments to stop flavours mixing. For hot food, pre-warm an insulated food jar with boiling water before packing. Stainless steel surfaces keep food tasting fresh — unlike plastic, they don't absorb odours.
Yes. Every lunch box in our range is BPA-free. Kids bento boxes use food-grade Tritan inner trays; adult stainless boxes use 304 or 316L stainless steel on all food-contact surfaces. Outer shells are BPA-free ABS and PP.
Happy Kid ships lunch boxes NZ-wide from our online store, with fast delivery to Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Dunedin and rural addresses. You can also visit us in person at 5A Pinot Lane, Westgate, Auckland (Mon-Fri 10am-5pm). Order early in January to have them ready for back-to-school.
Great material very durable and strong. Well designed with no shortage of storage, the padding on the straps are very comfortable for my Miss 6yr old she loves her new backpack. The price says it all.
