Kiwi Crate

For Christmas, my sister gave the older boys a three-month subscription to Kiwi Crate. Kiwi Crate is a fairly new service; each month subscribers receive a box with all the materials needed for several projects that center around a theme. While these crates are designed for use by one child, we are finding that sharing between two is no problem.

The first crate came in time for the boys to open it on Christmas, and they were immediately ready to jump right in!

The December theme was space-- Big Brother's passion!


First up: a mobile!


It took the better part of a day: working on and off and waiting for paint to dry, but by bedtime the mobile was in place!


The older boys have a space themed room, and so our new "system" is right at home!

The other project in the box was making a rocket-- also perfect for these two. We can't wait for the January crate to arrive!
