Kiwi Crate Handmade Valentines

Kiwi Crate has a special crate for Valentine's Day.  We always buy store bought cards, but I thought it would be fun to make our own this year.  The KiwI Crate Handmade Valentine's Crate comes with the following: 24 pop-up cards, 24 Valentine-themed punchouts, glue stick, set of 10 washable markers, wiggly eyes, sticky-back jewels, plus 2 blank cards to create a DIY pop-up card design.  This special crate is $14.95.

This crate is low on the messiness and low on the parental involvement.

The instructions were easy to read and follow.  L had a bit of trouble popping up the card correctly, so I helped him with that part.  The rest of the gluing and creating was easy for him.  L created 24 Valentines right before dinner.

Final Thought: The Kiwi Crate Handmade Valentines are super fun.  They make really unique Valentines.  L and I completed them in a short time before dinner.  L loved sticking on the stickers and gluing everything together.  Other than me helping pop up the card, L did everything on his own.  If you want to get the Valentine's kit, click HERE, it is $14.95.

Binkabox Subscription Box Discontinued

Binkabox Subscription Box Discontinued

Binkabox Subscription Box Discontinued

Binkabox has decided to discontinue their monthly subscription box, but they will still have their shop.

This was posted on their Facebook page:

“Hi Binkabox Family, Your support has been incredible and we have been sad to share this news earlier this week. As you may have read we have decided to move forward with the Binkabox Shop but, will be discontinuing our monthly subscription model for the time being. : ( With this being said, we want to hear from you to help us decide what our customers would like to see in the future. What do you think of a one time purchase box with more items and a slightly higher price point? Rather it be a monthly surprise just a package to send for yourself or someone that might enjoy a package of children's delights. Message us your opinions or email us at [email protected]. We are looking forward to hearing your thoughts on what you think would be best for your family. Thank you for all of your support. – The Binkabox Team”

It is always sad to see a subscription box go, but I am glad they will still have their shop.  What do you think of the news?
