Owl Crate Jr Subscription Box Review

There’s nothing better than getting lost in a good book!  Ok…as a former language arts/reading teacher, I may be a bit biased.  Books have always been a favorite of mine…from Sweet Valley High to Thank God it’s Me Margaret…books have always helped guide me through my childhood. I firmly believe that if you foster a child’s love of literature at an early age, you will create readers for a lifetime!  I would have LOVED having a subscription box like Owl Crate Jr when I was a kid!

Check it out…

What do I love about Owl Crate Jr?

 This box is curated for kids ages 8-12, and they make sure to appeal to both boys and girls.

What comes in each box?

Every box has its own theme

Each box comes with:

– a book that was published within 45 days of their ship date.

– 4-6 goodies that book lovers will enjoy

– one of those goodies is an item that encourages creativity, imagination, and exploration.

– A letter from the author and a signed book plate

What came in our Owl Crate Jr?

Our theme (March 2020 box) was: CODE BREAKERS

Our book was: City of Spies, by James Ponti

What kid doesn’t like a good spy book?  I know my youngest daughter (age 11) is going to eat this book up!  Take a peek at the summary:

We also received a note from James Ponti.  Having a connection with the author makes a book more meaningful.  Nice job Owl Crate Jr!

We also received a book called Over 50 Brain Games, that’s filled with lots of ways to make you think like: riddles, math games, wood puzzles, problem solving.  This is perfect for a rainy day like today!

A lined notebook.  Love the quote on the cover!

 A coding game you can create.

A travel-size game called Iota (the great big game in the teeny-weeny tin).  We’ll be testing this game out today because the weather is miserable here. It looks like a great game to throw in your carry-on bag.
