FAQ's
What is the recommended age range?
Our Junior Discovery Boxes contain more crafts than science and encourage play based learning for kids between the ages of 2 and 4.
Our Discovery Boxes encourage hands-on learning and experimentation in science and build confidence and creativity in kids between the ages of 5 to 10+.
While our boxes are designed with kids ages 2-10 in mind, we have subscribers as old as 14 and have even spied a number of adults having fun with our projects! We provide open-ended instructions that are intended as a jumping off point for kids to encourage their creativity and ensure that small kids can practice basic creativity skills while older kids can get more sophisticated with their projects.
What types of materials do you use, and where do they come from?
Some of our favorite supplies to include in our boxes are recycled felt, recycled paper, and recycled ribbon. We also love to include natural materials like wool, yarn, colored sand, clay, canvas, noodles, cruelty-free feathers, shells, jute twine, cotton fabrics, and wood. We source project materials and packaging supplies from reputable, sustainable companies that have a green standard.
How many children can use one box?
We provide a lot of materials for one child – many of our projects, but not all, can accommodate two children. Collaboration is a great part of any project, and we encourage children to work together as they explore each new art and science concept. You can also choose to order an additional subscription. This way, each child gets their own box in the mail! What kid doesn’t love getting mail?
Can I order a past box or other exclusive items on Amazon?
- Yes! We offer past boxes for sale on Amazon.
