Functional Chocolate for Kids Packaging Series

FunCho Kids Packaging: A Playful, Thoughtful Design for Wellness The FunCho Kids packaging is a vibrant, engaging, and purposeful design that blends fun and function, perfectly reflecting the brand’s mission to make wellness a treat for kids. Created in collaboration between The Functional Chocolate Team, Steve Whittier of Contentious Inc and Chirag Ahir of Goodness, the packaging showcases unique, character-based illustrations that immediately capture the attention of both children and parents alike. Each product in the new line is represented by a playful character that embodies the specific health benefit of the chocolate inside, whether it’s relaxation, focus, pain relief, or sleep. Chirag Ahir’s original illustrations are inspired by the characters his daughter drew when she was younger, adding a personal and nostalgic touch to the design. The illustration style is simple and charming, with flat colors that evoke the way children color—think blue skies, green grass, and bold, solid colors, without gradients. This approach is not only visually appealing but also speaks to the pure and straightforward nature of the product, making it approachable and fun for kids. The characters are designed to feel friendly and relatable, bringing to life the natural, plant-based ingredients in each product, such as chamomile, ginkgo biloba, and turmeric. The use of flat colors and clean design ensures the packaging stands out on shelves, while the bright, inviting color palette resonates with children and parents alike. The layout is clear and accessible, making the product’s wellness benefits easy to understand at a glance, while also keeping the tone lighthearted and playful. The collaboration between Contentious Inc and Goodness has resulted in packaging that is both aesthetically pleasing and functional, communicating the core values of the FunCho Kids brand—wellness, trust, and fun. This design embodies The Functional Chocolate Company’s commitment to making wellness enjoyable for the whole family, one delicious square at a time.
