Stork Stack: June 2013: Picnic Party!

This is my second month with Stork Stack.  I wasn't blown away with my May box, and I was hoping June would be better.  I was really happy with my June box.  My box was for a 14 1/2 month old boy “T”. This month's theme was picnic party and I thought Stork Stack really kept with the theme.  Stork Stack ships their boxes from Chicago, IL on the first of the month.  I was really happy to get my box today (June 3), since the 1st was a Saturday.  I live in Indiana, to give you an idea on shipping times.

Julep Maven: June 2013

I was excited to get my Julep Maven box for June.  I got it May 31st!  Talk about fast shipping!  My main box is Classic with a Twist, but I decided to go with Boho Glam this month.  The box came with the theme card “Sail with Summer”.  There was also a card to enter a contest to win 2 months of Julep Maven.  I love how everything is wrapped and packaged.  I couldn't decide between boxes this month so I added on the Martha and Bunny polishes.

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

Bluum May 2013 Cover Up and Balancing Act.

This is my second month with Bluum. I really enjoyed my first box and decided to also get a box for my 3 year old.  My 3 year old is almost 4, so I knew going in I might get some things that are too young for him.  Bluum sends out boxes every month with a theme according to the child's age.  It is for 0-3 and you get 4-5 items every month.
This month, Bluum had a huge influx of customers from a Plum District deal (now expired) and they sent out their boxes a week late.  Their were several unhappy customers and Bluum finally released a statement about the late boxes.  While I admit, their customer service needs improving, I really do love the boxes.
I received two boxes this month: 15 month old Balancing Act and 3 year old Cover Up
Balancing Act 15 month old boy

The whole box
Theme card and coupon for $15.00 off a purchase at Chromatic Gallerie.  There were also coupons for Happy Family
mOmma spoon by Lansinoh (Bluum's Price: $4.99,Amazon price: 7.00)
I am excited for my son to try this.  It looks easy for babies/toddlers to hold
Reusable sandwich wrapper (or other foods) by Kids Konserve (Bluum's Price: $4.50 Amazon price $5.00)
I love this product and will use this.  I like the idea of re-using bags.
How do I feel set of 10 books (Bluum's Price: $ 10.00, Amazon Price: 9.99).
I love books and any box that comes with books will make me happy.
There are 10 books and each talk about a feeling
I love that there is a case for them, so I won't have them scattered everywhere
The book are also a very thick board book (Perfect for a teething toddler)
Melissa and Doug Butterfly Stacker (Bluum's Price: $10.00, Amazon price $11.99)
I love Melissa and Doug.  We have many of their toys, but not this one!

Happy Family Snacks Rice Cakes in Carrot flavor & Yogurt and Fruit Snacks in Mixed Berry (Bluum's Price: $3.00 each. Amazon Price $3.00 each)
We have never tried these, but I think my little guy will like them

Final Value: Bluum Prices: $39.00, Amazon's prices $39.98

 

Cover Up: 3 Year old Boy
Whole box
Cover Up theme card, coupon for $15.00 off a purchase at Chromatic Gallerie, and a card from Pocket People (free shipping with a $50.00 purchase)
Melissa and Doug Cinco Starfish Hat (Bluum's Price $9.00, Amazon Price: $12.49)
This is a cute hat that will protect my fair skinned little boy from the sun
My son loves this
Melissa and Doug Cinco Starfish Flip-Up Sunglasses (Bluum's Price: 7.00, Amazon Price: 7.97)
My son loves sunglasses and he loved this so much, he wanted to wear them in the tub
Pocket People Ball (Bluum's Price: $10.00)
This is made by Pocket People, which it a new company based on my research. This was a gift for mom but I gave it to my son.  He loves it.
BabyGanics Cover Up Kisses Lip Balm and Sunscreen in Apple Berry (Bluum's Price: 3.99, Amazon Price:  $4.99)
This goes on clear and it perfect for your little one's lips
Pocket People Sam (Bluum's Price: $10.00)
I was shocked by the price when I first saw it.  The doll is handmade and beautifully crafted.  Each doll has a little personality.  Everyone thinks Sam is shy but is is actually quite bold and brave.  I originally thought this was for my son but my email said it was for the mom.  I contacted Bluum for more information.  This is a collectible doll for mom.  I already gave it to my son, so it is sitting on a shelf in his room.  You can read more about the doll HERE
Two 7th Heaven masks.  These are one time use samples, therefore I am giving them a value of  $0, as you can request free samples from companies. (Bluum's Price: $2.99)
Luna bar (Bluum's Price $2.00)
I am not a fan of Luna bars, so my husband is getting this).

Final value Bluum's Prices: $37.98.  Amazon's prices (and other websites)$38.40)

 
 

Final Thoughts:  I really like both of my boxes this month.  I was disappointed in the doll, but both boxes were worth well over the $24.95 I paid.  I could remove the doll from my box and it would still be worth over $24.95.  I am going to continue my 15 month old's subscription.  I canceled my 3 year old subscription as he is turning 4 and needs a older box.
