This box contains small parts that may pose a choking hazard. Adult supervision is required. Not suitable for children under 3 years old.
Do I need to buy any additional materials?
Most materials are included in the box! A small number of activities require nature-based items (like gathered flowers) or simple pantry staples (like flour or honey). A complete list of additional materials needed for each week is included in the parent guide.
Although very few activities require additional materials, our curriculum is designed to be flexible allowing these activities to easily be skipped without taking away from the overall learning experience.
Is the box designed for independent play or parent-led activities?
Both! The curriculum includes a mix of parent-led activities to encourage connection and independent play opportunities through sensory bins, play dough stations, and tinker trays. This gives your child time to explore and create on their own while giving you a chance to step back.
Do I need to follow the curriculum exactly?
No. The curriculum is designed to be flexible. You can adjust the pace to fit your family's routines and rhythms and adapt the activities to your child's interests/skill level.
