{Subscription Service Review} Our June Kids Book Club Book

Hi guys! Happy Friday! How has your week been? Are you ready for the super duper cold weekend in Johannesburg ??

Last month I saw an awesome new subscription service pop up in my Instagram sponsored posts called Kids Book Club and I decided to check it out. They have a great selection of packages available for most age groups too. As I mentioned in a previous post - Alex reads a book every night before bedtime. (He reads more though - he has to read a bedtime story to me every night ) I love picking up a few new ones often for a before bedtime read. I decided this subscription would be an awesome add on for us to give a try and see how we like it.

We picked the single book Fox Favourites (5-10years) package and the theme for our June box was "Cozy". Our package included the starter pack, a cute book and two activity packs (the Cozy one that is the theme for the month as well as our starter pack one - which will come in handy this school holiday ). The starter pack also includes the wooden tribe mountain, as well as two, recycle stickers (that Alex's already stuck on our recycle bins). We also got a cute badge and the first figure for our wooden tribe mountain (which I will post a photo of later in this post)

Overall I think the intro pack is a very nice addition to the books - the activity book has some nice colouring activities as well as the cute woodland animals stickers for the scenery at the back. 

Our June book is Pip Street the Crazy Crumpet Kerfuffle written by Jo Simmons. I love how this is not a book I would normally have picked for Alex - but I'm excited for him to read it. He has already started reading it the moment we unboxed the book for the photos. 

So more about the book :
"Pip Street is having it's very own crumpet bake-off and everyone is taking part.

Harmless fun ??

Not exactly .....

The competition is doomed unless brave Bobby Cobbler can outsmart his nasty neighbour Pompey Pasty, who is determined to win by any means. "

 As I mentioned the two activity books has quite a few fun activities. The "Cozy" theme this month has some cute snap cards you can cut out and play with, a colouring-in picture or three, a fun recipe to make some homemade hot chocolate, a number matching activity a dress-up bear and the sticker activity. 

There is also a certificate of completion at the back of the book that you as a parent can fill in and give to your child. Overall this is a nice filler they added. 

We picked the R159 package which included delivery as well as one book and activity book and cute theme of the month bag. I'm pretty impressed and can't wait to see what the July book will be. Our July will be filled with lots of Eisteddfodd practice and events - but I'm keen to upgrade our August package to a two-book one. 

The wooden tribe mountain is already standing proud in Alex's room dresser with the first figurine added.
