The good people at Kiwi Crate saw my post where I mentioned that I've been trying to come up with fun craft activities for my girls now that school's out. They have the coolest product (seriously, it's award-winning - all you design-loving moms will totally approve!) - once a month a box arrives at your doorstep, beautifully packaged with 2-3 kid-focused activities. (Here are the most popular past crates.) Subscriptions start at $16.99 and additional boxes for siblings are only $9.99. Shipping is always free.
They also send a copy of their adorable Explore! Magazine.
The Kiwi Crate we got this week was called Farm Fun and it had a little planter box where you can plant real seeds, and this felt finger puppet project inside.
The bookshelves were finished this week, so I loved that I could sort of let the girls loose on their projects on the floor of the library while I was putting away books. Each project comes with very clear picture instructions, so even my Evie could make the puppets on her own.
It ended up being hours of quiet play time, which have been few and far between around here lately. Two thumbs up from this tired and busy mom! :)
PS!! Get 25% off your first month's subscription to Kiwi Crate with the code LGN25. The summer crates will all be about exploring the great outdoors! :)
I love the rug! Tell me where its from, please.
ReplyDeleteThese look super great, though shipping is only free with purchase of $50 or more.
ReplyDeleteVery cute idea! Your girls are darling!
ReplyDeleteI'd also really like to know where the rug is from!
ReplyDeleteDitto on the rug. It looks like a great neutral. Inquiring minds want to know.
ReplyDeleteThanks guys! The rug is from here:

ReplyDeleteJenny, how do you keep the house so tidy with three young children! As someone contemplating children I keep thinking eek! How? I do not want a home looking like Toys R Us.
ReplyDeleteThese crates are pretty amazing and the best part is free delivery :) My kids love them and always have a great time playing with them:)

ReplyDeleteIt is a great idea for a funny and useful game. Would you be so kind to share some of the other games that came with Kiwi Crate because I am considering subscription. And are there packages for boys? Thanks in addition.
