If the pandemic has taught us anything, it’s that keeping kids entertained is the name of the parenting game. Idle, screentime isn’t always good, and keeping them busy is the best way to preserve your sanity.
Enter subscription boxes. Subscription boxes are unique in that when they are great, they are awesome. But, when they aren’t so great, they can be really bad. I like to think of them as a surprise box of goodies every month, you never really know what you’ll receive. Though filled with unknowns, subscription boxes are an awesome way to discover new products, and again, keep the littles entertained.
If you’re the kind of person that spends way too long thinking about subscribing before you pull the trigger, we have you covered. Check out our favorite subscription boxes for kids of all ages.
