Lunchables is taking over New York City’s iconic FAO Schwarz toy store and Rockefeller Plaza’s storefront windows with large-scale food sculptures that tie in with the release of limited-edition Lunchabuilds kits. Designed to fuel creativity, these kids encourage kids to play with their food as they create towering rocket ships, global landmarks and fun creatures.
Each pack comes with instructions for building the food model, as well as a real-world ticket to a certain destination. With these kits, families will not only have fun constructing their own snacks but also exploring places like space centers, zoos or famous buildings in global cities. The Explorer Building Kit, for example, encourages visits to Virginia Space Flight Academy, Camp Kennedy Space Center or the Space Center Houston.
