I found the Little Spark website and was excited to see a company that only sent toys.

12 Months: $379.99
The day that you sign up, is the day you will be billed each month (or every 3, 6, 12 months). The age only goes up to 18 months at this time. The box arrived in a large brown box with Little Spark stamped on it. There were 4 cards that were written on front and back. My box is for a 13-14 month old. This month's theme was Social Clues and Cues. The cards talked about separation anxiety and the developmental milestones that form from attachment. They discussed social referencing (how your baby looks at you for cues in new situations). The cards defined attachment, secure base and social referencing as well.
There is a card for each toy in the box. Each toy is described, given the retail value and it discusses how you can help their development by playing with the toy. I was very impressed with this box. The cards are detailed and well thought out. I like the selection of toys (although we did get a duplicate). I am very excited to try another month. I hope they expand the program because my son will age out soon.
This is how the box came to my house |

Little People Lil Movers School Bus Retail Value: $21.99 |
Sesame Street: Who Are the People in Your Neighborhood Retail Value: $7.99 |
Sassy Look Photo Book Retail Value: $6.99 |
Final Thoughts: I looked up all the products on Amazon and could buy all of them for $30.60. That being said, I didn't sign up just for the toys. I signed up for the educational value in the cards and the cues for me to better play/teach my child. I think this box was worth my $34.99 and will be trying it again next month.
If my review inspires you to sign up, you can email little spark at contactus@littlespark.com and put Referral Program-Erin Hamm in the subject line. I will get a referral credit once the program is up. Thank you so much!
