The April Kiwi Crate included two crafts: a “flying” dragonfly activity + make your own tic-tac-toe board!
The back of the main card. My son always carefully selects the right color for Steve the Kiwi. Each box includes a completion sticker to proudly display on their Adventures poster.
Kiwi Crate includes all the supplies you need for two main crafts, plus explore! magazine.
Each issue of explore! magazine features a short comic, experiments and puzzles or picture or word find type games. My son likes to complete the explore! activities cover-to-cover before proceeding to the crafts. Our daughter sneaks the book out first and reads the entire thing.
It has additional information and crafts and activities you can complete with household supplies to keep the fun going.
my dragonflyers. The project involved decorating dragonfly wings and a body and assembling a “flyer!”
Color change markers are super fun.
This project turned out great, with almost no assistance!
And it flies!
my bug tic-tac-toe. This was a cute, quick craft that allows lots of fun – and stops all the paper from my printer being stolen!
The instructions are clear and easy to follow, with step-by-step visual aids.
We helped her evenly divide the clay.
And she made each bug herself!
Tada!
Explore Magazine also sometimes has a fun recipe, and although this was total junk food, we made it for a weekend treat. The kids had a blast and helped with making and assembling the dirt cups.
After she wrote out a grocery list for this project it was hard to say no!
This month was a fun, low key crate, with lots of playtime – both active and thinking – so we thought it was good. I liked that it didn’t need too much adult intervention this month – I like to think the subscriptions are for the kids, not me!
