Kiwi Crate September 2014 Review
Kiwi Crate was our family's first subscription box and it remains our favorite. Kiwi Crate is $19.95 a month, and each month you get at least two big crafts along with Explore Magazine. Explore Magazine is a magazine that is included in every box. You can also add supplies for a sibling for only $9.95. The Explore Magazine is filled with cartoons, activities, and bonus crafts. My son L loves Kiwi Crate. He is always so excited to get this box and see what the theme is for the month.
The Details:
Cost: Month to Month $19.95
3 Months: $59.85
6 Months: $111.00
12 Months: $203.40
Sibling Add On: Get extra materials for a sibling to share the crate. Customers call it the “no fight” crate.

We've hand selected and kid tested projects that are open ended and encourage curiosity, exploration and creativity!
What ages is Kiwi Crate for? Ages 3-8 but older children can enjoy it too.

Your subscription will automatically resume after the pause period is complete. Pause by 7:00 PM EST on the 4th of the month to avoid being billed for the next crate.
How do I cancel? You can cancel right from you online account.

The theme for this month is “Castles & Catapults”
This month, Kiwi Crate gave members the chance to get adds ons. I loved the theme, so I bought almost all the add ons!
Kiwi Crate ships in a cute little green box. L loves seeing this box come in the mail
The two main projects this month was “My Medieval Castle” and “My Launching Catapult”.
The back of the information card has Steve the kiwi bird to color and a friend. There is also a sticker to add to your poster.
When you first sign up for Kiwi Crate, your child will get a pair of scissors and a poster to put all your stickers.
Add Ons: I added on the Book King Arthurs Very Great Grandson book, a flip and draw knight book, and a knight and princess costume set.
Kiwi Crate includes Explore! magazine which includes cartoons, activities and tons of bonus crafts to complete!
The first project was “My Launching Catapult” This was rating low on the messiness scale and medium on the parental involvement.
Kiwi Crate always includes colorful step by step instructions, so you child can follow directions, before they can read.
Everything was included to make the catapult
Work on the project.
The finished project. L had a great time playing with this. He was launching this everywhere.
The next project was “My Medieval Castle”. This rated low on the messiness scale and low on the parental involvement.
Once again, there was step by step instructions.
There were many pieces to this project, bit it all looked easy to complete.
Working on his castle.
Adding the stickers. L decided that his castle needed every sticker. It was cute to watch.
The finished castle. There were little figures to use to play with the castle.
Final Thought: This month was really fun for L. The medievel castle was easy for him to complete and lots of fun. The catapult was a bit more tricky, but the finished project was a huge success.
