School is wrapping up for the summer, but your kids can keep learning with educational subscription boxes.
We know how tricky it can be to keep the kids learning once school is out, and we wanted to make it a little easier for you and your family. Spending quality time together as a family is so important, and we think learning together is an excellent opportunity to do so. So, we did our research and put together a list of educational subscription boxes for kids that are perfect for the summer.
Raddish
As food lovers ourselves, we had to put a food subscription box first on our list! Raddish is a great subscription option for families that want the kids to practice cooking this summer. Here at Dream Dinners, we love Raddish because it brings families together to spend quality time in the kitchen, just like we do. This subscription box works by delivering a kid-friendly cooking class to your door every month. Designed for kids aged 4-14, Raddish brings the classroom into the kitchen and teaches math, science, and diversity through fun cooking lessons. If you’re looking to have some fun with your little ones in the kitchen this summer, Raddish is the box for you!
Kiwi Crate
Kiwi Crate is a great educational subscription box for kids looking to get crafty this summer. With crates suitable for kids of all ages, babies, toddlers, children, and teens alike can all find an educational and fun box to receive. When selecting a crate, you can filter by age and interests and choose the perfect crate for your little ones. If you have older children, the doodle crate is a great monthly subscription option. Get unique, hands-on projects delivered to your door monthly that spark creativity and inspire confidence in your little ones.
