Introducing the new Rice Krispies Treats packages, specially designed for children with autism and those who are blind or have low vision. These innovative packaging designs allow parents to include "Love Notes" in their child's lunchbox by applying a sticker to the treat's writable wrapper. All Rice Krispies Treats come with a writable wrapper, enabling parents and caregivers to write messages of love and support directly on the packaging.
Building on this concept, the company has introduced tactile 'sensory stickers' and braille stickers. These enhancements enable parents of autistic and blind children to add their supportive notes meaningfully. The sensory stickers feature various textures, while the braille stickers are printed with eight messages.
Both types of stickers are heart-shaped to perfectly fit the white writable space on the front of the Rice Krispies Treats wrapper.
