August Kiwi Crate


We spent our nights this week doing crafts out of our August Kiwi Crate. I absolutely love these crates and each month they continue to get better. This month had a "flight" theme and we got to make kites, rockets, and other fun paper planes. Also, this month they introduced a magazine that will be added in each crate going forward. I honestly have no idea how they are able to cram so much stuff inside the box!!

Here is a peek at what was inside when we first opened the box....


 Of course both of my kids have come to recognize the green crate and insist on doing a craft as soon as it arrives. So our first activity was the kite!


Each craft has a great set of instructions and everything you need is in the box. So we gathered what we needed and got to work!


Of course I failed to take a picture of them outside with their kites. But both Liv and Bennett had a blast and surprisingly the kites held up! Plus their was enough material to make two kites for each kid so we will be doing this again someday (I opted to add extra supplies for $7.95 to my subscription so both Alivia and Bennett get to craft together and there is no fighting).

The next night we were short on time so luckily there was a small craft we were able to do together. It consisted of punching out pre-cut pieces of paper and putting them together to make different types of "fliers". The kids loved this and our living room was transformed into an airport as they tested each flier out. 



Our final craft for the month was to make rockets. Again everything we needed to make the rockets was included in the box. And the best part was being able to measure how high our rockets would shoot against our fancy backdrop.





Words cannot express how awesome these crates are. I love how all of us have fun and cannot wait until next months crate arrives. We are looking forward to the next 3 months of crates after getting a sneak peek....

 


Also, for a limited time they are running a great back-to-school sale. So if you want to join the fun definitely check it out!! It is definitely worth every penny in my opinion!
