The Maccie MunchMate Silicone Bento 5 Compartment Lunchbox is a divided silicone lunchbox designed to carry a variety of foods to school, picnics and outings in one compact container. With five separate compartments, it keeps mains, snacks, fruit and treats apart so nothing mixes on the way, and it's made for children aged 4 and up who are starting to manage their own meals.
Made from BPA-free, food-grade silicone, the MunchMate is flexible yet durable, and the whole body is microwave-safe for reheating and dishwasher-safe for easy cleaning. The lid is designed to open easily for small hands while still closing securely, which is what makes it a practical option if you're looking for a bento box a child can open independently at the lunch table.
A place for everything
The five compartments give you room to pack a genuinely varied meal without needing extra tubs, which can help make lunch feel more interesting for a fussy eater and easier for you to portion. The full box measures 22 cm long, 16 cm wide and 6 cm deep, so it slots into most lunch bags and backpacks. The bright, child-friendly design comes in blue, green or pink.
Made to travel
Maccie describes the lid seal as leakproof, so it's built to keep food contained inside a bag on a bumpy school run. As a reusable silicone box, it's an eco-friendly alternative to single-use plastic, and the soft, flexible construction stands up to daily use.
Easy to keep clean
The MunchMate is dishwasher-safe, so it can go straight in with the rest of the load. As with any divided container, give the compartment corners and the lid a proper rinse and let everything dry fully before packing the next meal.
Best For
The Maccie MunchMate Silicone Bento Lunchbox is a great option for parents who:
- Want to pack a variety of foods in separate compartments for a child aged 4 and up
- Prefer a reusable silicone box over single-use plastic
- Need something microwave- and dishwasher-safe to fit a busy routine
- Are helping a young child learn to open and manage their own lunch
It may not be the best fit if you:
- Are packing for a baby or younger toddler still building the skills to eat independently
- Need a fully insulated box, as this relies on your own lunch bag and ice pack for cold storage
Pandylane Pro Tip
Pandylane Pro Tip: On warmer days, pop the packed MunchMate into an insulated lunch bag with an ice pack. Silicone doesn't keep food cold on its own, so the cold chain comes from what you pack it in.
Disclaimer
The MunchMate is available in blue, green and pink. If a particular colour is important to you, please note your preference in the order notes and we'll supply it where stock allows. As always, food shape, size and texture should suit your child's stage, and young children should stay seated and supervised while eating.
