Review of Penny & Grace Jewelry Subscription Box
I absolutely LOVE jewelry and it is so fun to switch them around depending on my outfits. I was so excited to work with Penny & Grace, a jewelry subscription box that has the CUTEST pieces of jewelry that is exactly my style! Every month you receive three curated pieces of jewelry tailored to your color/metal choice. I was so excited when I saw the package in my mailbox.
What do I love about this box?
Travelers will love their jewelry because they are versatile and will go with everything, so you won’t need to pack many. Their pieces were beautiful, with a simple, classic design. I like that they customize your look by taking their quiz and selecting your jewelry preferences. Then you can browse and customize your first box. After that, you’ll be surprise by all the fun pieces they choose for you. If you change your mind about the type of pieces you want to get, you can simply change your preferences. I love that their jewelry is authentic and unique. In fact, all of their jewelry is designed in house and manufactured by them, which is rare.
What did we get?
Each monthly order comes neatly packed in their signature faux leather clutch. They are beautiful and I can’t wait to use the clutches when I travel.
Then, each piece of jewelry is placed in a separate soft jewelry bag.
We were so happy to receive not one…but two boxes!

Review of Eat2explore
Like many of you, our family is so upset about having to put a hold on all of our travel plans. I’ve been spending this time ‘virtually traveling’ by experimenting with new meals and cocktails from different countries. Eat2Explore, a cooking subscription box, is the perfect way to do this. Since we are all at home practicing social isolation, it’s a great time to try new activities and create lifelong memories with your family.
I love that the creators of this box have the same beliefs as I do. They feel mealtime should be an experience and cooking are life-skills everyone should have. They also feel hands-on cooking and culture explorations is even more important in today’s world. My daughters and I had so much fun cooking with this box. I even played French music while we were cooking.
What do I love about this box?
I love that there are three different exploration options. The first choice is to explore a country (1 or 3 countries). You could also choose to explore a continent (4 countries). Finally, you could choose to explore the world (12 countries). With every package, you will receive a new country box each month.

Review of Chef Free Subscription Box
Although my children do not have any allergies, many of their friends do. In fact, my youngest daughter was in an allergy classroom for the last two years, so we became very familiar with the struggle of her friends trying to find meals that are both delicious and safe for them to eat. Chef Free Club is a wonderful subscription box that focuses on empowering kids both in and out of the kitchen.
What do I love about Chef Free?
- This box teaches kids essential skills such as reading labels, self-advocacy, and communication.
- Helps them establish a healthy relationship with food by encouraging them to keep trying new foods that are safe for them.
- Invites kids to join a community by getting them to interact with others through sharing tips and advice.
- Motivates kids to spread awareness by empowering them with a positive voice for educating others.

Little Sous: Cooking Subscription Box
My girls have been in the kitchen with me since they were young, and they love to help create delicious meals. During social isolation, they have been loving cooking and we are always looking for new recipes. We were so excited to get our box from Little Sous Kitchen Academy, a cooking subscription box for kids. We couldn’t wait to get into the kitchen.
What do I love about Little Sous Kitchen Academy?
I love that this box encourages kids to be curious about cooking and teaches them a life skill. When cooking together it’s the perfect time to talk about healthy eating habits and nutrition. It also helps them broaden their palate, so it’s great for picky eaters.
What comes in each box?
Step-by-step cooking lesson with kid-friendly recipes
Activity cards
Ready-to-color poster filled with games and puzzles
Fun stickers
High-quality cooking tool or a non-perishable ingredient
The box has a classy look but the quote “Messes will be made,” reminds you that it is for kids.

Review of Harlow’s Harvest
Since we’ve begun social isolation, I can’t get my daughter out of the kitchen. She’s been trying new recipes and surprising us with delicious treats. However, we’re starting to run out of ideas over here, so this box could not have come at a better time. Harlow’s Harvest is a monthly cooking subscription box for kids and we were thrilled to work with them. We were so excited when we saw out box on our front porch and couldn’t wait to get a peek inside.
What do I love about Harlow’s Harvest?
I love that this box teaches life skills and encourages a lifelong love of cooking. It promotes healthy eating habits and even teaches them about budgeting. I also love that they hold a strong emphasis on history, geography, STEM, and math. Kids can track their progress because each month they will receive a new academy pin for their apron. I also love that Harlow’s Harvest believes that cooking and eating is a worldly experience, so with this box subscription, you have the opportunity to experience the world without leaving your home.
