September Kiwi Crate Modern Art and $10.00 discount code

When the little green box shows up on our doorstep, it is a great day in his household.  My son L loves his Kiwi Crate.  He always wants to start on it right away.  He knows I take pictures of everything and do videos, so he is always anxious for me to get done.  Kiwi Crate is $19.95 a month and each month you get a box of at least 2 crafts, a kiwi crate magazine, and a cut out scene to play with your box.  In you first Kiwi Crate, you also get a pair of scissors and a poster to put your Kiwi Crate stickers (more on that later).

Kiwi Crate July 2013 Wonders of Water.

My 4 year old L was so excited to get his Kiwi Crate today.  He saw the mail truck pull up to the house and he yelled “MY KIWI CRATE IS HERE!”.  Kiwi Crate is my favorite subscription box, at least for L.  I love that you can easily pause your subscription and skip a month if you want to.  Kiwi Crate is 19.95 a month, but you can try your first box for $9.95 by clicking HERE
The wonderful green box

Kiwi Crate: June 2013

I can't express how much my son (and I) love Kiwi Crate.  Of all the boxes we get, this is the box that I think is most worth the money.  I think it is a bargain for the price.  This month's theme is nature.  There are two main crafts.  The first is my starlight lantern and the second is my collection box.  There were tons of craft materials in this months box.  We got a surprise gift I this month, a deck of cards.

Here is the June Box

Kiwi Crate: May 2013: Feathered Friends

This is a late post, as I thought I already posted my review.  Don't forget to enter my contest to win a $20.00 gift card to Kiwi Crate.  The post is a couple posts down, or you can use the search box on the right.  This month's Kiwi Crate theme was “Feathered Friends”.  The two main projects were the bird mask and wings and a project to make a bird nest and eggs. This month's box was packed full of items.  There was also an 2 additional booklets of information.  The first booklet was a sneak peak at the June, July and August Crates!  I am really excited for the crates this summer, as I know my son will love them.  If you want to be surprised, stop reading after you see the picture of the booklet Camp Kiwi.  My son L is almost 4 and he didn't need very much help at all with the projects.
Here is what was in the box:
How the box comes

First Look
All the contents
Bird Nest and Eggs project
You put the glue in the cup with the yarn and mix.  L doesn't like getting his hands messy, but he did it.
Then you flatten the yarn around the bowl (stopping 3/4  the way down).
You let it dry for 24 hrs and then remove from the bowl
They included a white crayon so you can draw a pattern on your eggs.  Then you paint them blue. EVERY SINGLE item you need is included (well, minus the paper towels)
Bird Mask and Wings Supplies.  They included beaks for a kiwi, duck and woodpecker.  The child puts Velcro dots on each beak, so the child can switch out what bird he/she wants to be.
Making the mask.  The parent was instructed to tie the knot on each end of the elastic after the child threaded it through.
Lacing elastic through the wings
Completed Projects
Close Up of the Nest and Eggs.
This book gave information about various birds and then had space for the child to draw the  bird they talk about.

 Final Thoughts: I really love Kiwi Crate.  They have the best customer service and product for your money.  If I had to cancel all my boxes but 1, this is the box I would keep.  I loved this months box.  My son wore his costume and “flew”all around the yard.  If you want to try out Kiwi Crate, click HERE to save $10.00 off your first crate making it $9.95.  You can add materials for a sibling for only $7.95 also!  The other great thing is you can skip a month or cancel right from the website.  Keep reading if you want to see the sneak peeks for the summer month's kits.

June: Nature Explorers.  July Wonders of Water and August: Fun with Flight

My 3 1/2 year old son loves Kiwi Crate.  You get a box of materials to make 2 or more big crafts a month.  My son has been getting it for several months and loves it.  Each Craft is like a toy.  We have all the items he has made and he still plays with them.  He has made a penquin bowling set, board game, playground for a pet, Animals, rocket ball to throw into rings and so much more.  This month's theme is “Green” since Earth day is April.
