When I was contacted by the wonderful mom who created Curiosity Box, I knew my girls would love it! They are 2 and 4 years old and crafting is probably their favorite thing to do!

The box came addressed to my kids and they couldn’t wait to open it!!! It was hard for me to take pictures as they just wanted to open everything up. We got the sibling add on, so both girls had fun crafting together…what an amazing idea!

Each Curiosity Box comes with an information card outlining each craft and activity in your box for that month complete with instructions. and any addition facts and activities you can do with your children to supplement the themed learning. The theme in May’s box is “Yee-haw”.

*We did receive two of everything in our box, but I will only review one of each item as that is what comes in a regular box.

Activity: Cowboy Boot Spur Toss Game

Simple and easy to follow directions, complete with a picture in the brochure, my 4 year old enjoyed helping her little sister do this craft. Followed by hours the whole family spent giggling and throwing the ‘spurs’ into the boot bag…priceless! I must say the little one, is probably the best spur tosser. 🙂

Craft #1: Cowboy Scene Tissue Paper Craft Kit

This craft is a nice challenge for the younger kids and takes a bit longer to complete, we are enjoying the diversity of skills for these crafts.

Craft #2: Foam Sheriff’s Badge

A simple, quick craft. My daughters were able to do this craft without me. They had a nice time working together and helping each other. Not to mention, they love using glue!

Craft #3: Ranch Door Knob Hanger Craft Kit

Daddy even got to help a little bit with this craft, although I secretly think these girls like doing the crafts all by themselves, then have the fun showing us what they made. 🙂 These door hangers have a permanent spot on their bedroom doors. Every time I see them I smile a bit knowing how proud they are of all their crafts!

What a fun added novelty bonus gift… small, plastic cowboy hat and slap wrist bracelet in western paisley pattern. My oldest daughter thinks this bracelet is just the coolest thing! We have all been the recipient of the slap bracelet. And these hats are adorable and perfect for our dress up bin as well as to wear while making western crafts. 🙂

I love how for each craft everything is included in the box. No thinking and organizing to be had by me, when we want to craft we can! Crayons, white glue, a themed notepad for more activities.

Images come alive and allow children to interact with them. The animals move and make sounds. This is possibly the most amazing thing I have seen! I am not sure who had more fun, the kids or us, parents?! Thanks for this fun look into a whole new world!

Verdict: This is a wonderful craft subscription box for kids. My girls love to do crafts, so they loved this box! There is a nice range of simple, to more complex crafts for all abilities. I really enjoyed having everything pre-packaged with all necessary items. This box allowed for a great mix of family time and sister play time. We all loved the theme “Yee-haw” since we are from Calgary, it is a perfect to get us excited and taking about all things Stampede! There were also so amazing added bonuses and surprises! I cannot wait to see what the theme will be in next months box!
