Keep Kids' Lunchboxes Coming Home With Personalized Name Stickers
If you’ve ever opened your child’s backpack at 4 PM to find that their lunchbox isn’t there, then you know the lost-and-found just gained another expensive belonging. Between busy cafeterias, crowded cubby areas, and hallway mix-ups, there’s a lot of opportunity for kids to lose their lunchbox. But there’s a way to keep those lunch taxis coming home!
Name Bubbles’ Custom Lunchbox Name Labels Pack prevents loss and mix-ups, and keeps your child’s lunchbox where it belongs. Ordinary paper stickers, masking tape, or markers don’t stand a chance; they blur, smudge, or peel off after a single wash. We use heavy-duty, long-lasting press-and-stick vinyl that stays on your child’s lunchbox for the entire school year (and beyond). Not only does labeling your child’s lunchbox save you time from digging through the school lost bin, but it also saves you money by preventing costly replacements!
Custom Lunchbox Name Labels Made to Last
Parents are busy with everyday schedules, drop-off, sports practice, playdates, work, and a laundry list of other things. The last thing anyone needs is a name sticker that doesn’t work and creates a speed bump in an already packed day. Our lunchbox name labels for kids are made to last, and won’t peel or fall off after a couple of uses. You really get the bang for your buck with these labels!
- 100% Waterproof & Washable: They last through ice pack condensation, leaky juice boxes, and daily cleaning without cracking or fading. They’re also dishwasher-safe for when you run thermoses and snack containers through the wash.
- Bold on Lunch Gear: Each pack includes a large circle name sticker that stands out on lunchboxes, thermoses, and snack boxes.
- Matching Set of Stickers: The matching set of waterproof stickers keeps everything in theme, perfect for kids who take multiple lunchtime essentials.
- Kid-Proof Vinyl: Made with premium 3M material that resists scuffs, drops, and everyday handling. All labels and stickers are printed with fade-resistant ink and finished with a matte laminate that adds even more durability.
- Safe & Non-Toxic: Your child’s health and safety are important to us. Our name stickers are BPA-free, non-toxic, and made with no PFAs in the manufacturing process, and they’re printed with eco-friendly ink. They are completely safe to have on your child’s lunchbox!
Great for Character Themed Lunchboxes, Bentgo®, Thermos®, and Every Bag In Between
There are a lot of lunch bags and accessories out there, and our personalized lunchbox label combo pack is designed to stick to whatever setup your family uses. Whether you are placing the large name label on the main box or using the matching stickers on smaller accessories, they stay locked onto all your child’s lunchtime essentials:
- Character Lunchboxes: The strong grip sticks securely onto both smooth plastic and textured tin, keeping your kid's favorite superhero or cartoon graphics fully visible while ensuring their gear doesn't get swapped at the cafeteria table.
- Bento Boxes & Multi-Compartment Trays: The super-durable name sticker holds tightly to the outer lids and flat surfaces of popular brands like Bentgo®, PlanetBox®, and OmieBox®.
- Thermoses & Water Bottles: Our flexible name labels and stickers wrap smoothly around curved water bottles and thermoses without peeling at the edges.
- Snack Pods & Dip Containers: The matcher sticker set sticks securely to small plastic lids, snack boxes, and dip containers, keeping everything matching with the main name label.
A Quick Note on Silicone & Rubber Surfaces
Our adhesive name labels and matching stickers stick strongly to hard plastics, stainless steel, glass, and smooth metal containers. However, silicone and squishy rubber materials are naturally non-stick (it’s why food slides right off them!), and our labels will NOT work on these surfaces. If your kiddo uses silicone snack pouches or rubberized bottle sleeves, the labels will not stick. However, if there is a hard surface mixed with the silicone, apply the lunchbox or matching sticker there. If space is limited, we also offer extra-small name stickers.
How to Apply Lunchbox Name Labels So They Stay Put All Year
We want your labels to survive every messy school lunch and daily cleaning because you deserve it! To get the best stick possible, just follow these three easy steps before lunchboxes ever leave the house:
- Clean & Dry: If you’re labeling a brand-new lunchbox, it’s ready to go! If you’re labeling one that’s been used, give the lunchbox surface a quick wipe-down to remove grease, food oils, or dirt. Towel dry thoroughly.
- Press & Smooth: Peel the name label/matching sticker from the sheet and press it onto a smooth spot. Firmly rub your thumb across the sticker from the center outward to push out any tiny air bubbles and to ensure it goes on smoothly.
- Give It 24 Hours to Set: Let the name label rest for a full 24 hours before getting it wet. This gives the adhesive time to fully bond to the surface, ensuring it will last for the entire school year.
