Crafty

Dear founders of KIWI Crate,

I heart you.

Yesterday, we made paper rockets. Today, we made wind-driven cars. The arrival of your green cardboard box and the crafts inside bring crafty joy to our hearts. You make crafts sooo hassle-free. I didn't have to clean up huge messes. The kids could follow the instructions. I can follow the instructions.

Pricy? Well, maybe a little. But it's soooo worth it. Because by the time I drive to a craft store, go bonkers trying to keep the kids from pulling down all the stuff I don't want them to grab, buy the supplies, realize later I forgot some crucial element, and finally do the craft and clean up the mess and store all the extra odds and ends, I've killed all the energy I had for craft projects in the first place.


However, a box that arrives in the mail with all the supplies, clear and simple directions and additional information for further learning? Yessiree. That's my kinda thing.

If you are looking for a gift recommendation, I would strongly encourage you to look into a subscription to Kiwi Crate.
