My son always gets excited when he sees the Kiwi Crate box. This month's theme was Glowing Animals. Kiwi Crate packs so much fun stuff in one box, I don't know how they only charge $19.95 a month. L was so excited to get his Kiwi Crate, he did all the projects in one day. If you are new to Kiwi Crate, you can use this link to save $10.00 on your first box.

There is always an information card on top, that tells you what projects are in the box. This month, there was my glowing friend and my racing jellyfish.

The back of the information card has cut outs your child can color and use to play with the inside of the box.

Kiwi Crate includes a magazine in every box now. It is filled with activities and learning opportunities for your child.

There was a bonus activity in the Explore magazine, to make a glowing firefly
 |
| My Firefly Paint Jar |
There was another project idea in the Explore magazine, to make a firefly paint jar. This looks really fun.
 |
| My Glowworm Friend |
The first project was my glowworm friend. It was low on parental involvement and low on the messiness scale. Your child make a little glowworm friend, that really glows.
 |
| Stuffing |
L enjoyed stuffing the glowworm. It was really easy too.
 |
| Coloring |
Kiwi Crate included 3 markers to decorate the glowworm
 |
| Cesar |
L names his glowworm Cesar. He slept with him last night too. Great Craft
 |
| My Racing Jellyfish |
You child makes 2 jelly fish that can race against each other. This had low messiness and medium parent involvement.
 |
| Sample Instructions |
 |
| Assembly |
The jelly fish racers were a bit hard to do, but L stuck with it and had fun.
 |
| Finished |
To race, each person pulls the strings away from each other, and the jelly fish goes up. The person who gets to the top first wins. L won 3 out of 4 races (Fair and Square)
