{Subscription Service Review & Reveal } May Reading Edition Kids Book Club Book Unboxing

Hi guys! Happy Thursday. How has your week been? Mine has been crazy - going into the office and working from home as well with homeschooling is a little intense ... I'll have to get used to the new schedule I have.

Today I'm sharing our May Reading Edition Themed Kids Bookclub with you. As I mentioned when I shared our Easter Edition one - with buying books being banned in Level 5 we quickly ran out of books to read just before sales were allowed again in Level 4. Luckily Kids Book Club was able to deliver in Stage 4 - so we got a bonus package of our May & June books. Alex was so excited when he saw the delivery stop and feeling the package was bigger than usual. 

As I mentioned here many times before- Alex does read every night before bedtime - this is a strong rule we stick to every night. He loves reading and he often walks around with a fact book or Encyclopedia in his hand reading everyone facts about volcanoes, dinosaurs or the human body.

I love that Kids Book Club send us a cute book, an activity something and a cute bag every month. April's theme is Easter super cute too. These bags are awesome if you go shopping to throw in your bag and let the kids help out packing groceries. I love how colourful the bags got as well - making them super cute and fun. 

So more about the service again if you missed it last time :

We picked the two-book Hedgehog Heroes (11-13 years) package - this month we received a book, a fun sticker activity book, the monthly activity booklet, The new storytelling mat and character, the cute new monthly bookmark and of course the cute bag. There was even a super fun MiniMag magazine added as an extra this month.

The activity book this month included colouring, tracing activities, matching activities, and stickers.  For us, this is a perfect filler for before bedtime where we already cleaned up all the toys and packed away any games and T.V time is done. 

So onto the books, we got this month - Swarm - Project Venom by Simon Cheshire -"The Secret Intelligence Agency has a new weapon - micro-robotic bugs that serve as undercover agents. SWARM suspects the scientist as the country's top research lab has gone rogue. The SWARM Team uncovers a sinister underworld and a deadly poison that is about to be unleashed. Can they foil the criminals' evil plan before the world is changed forever ?" Alex loves secret Agents and anything spy-related - so I'm sure he will adore reading this book once he starts. too 

The Second activity book we got was the Crazy Monsters Sticker Book - and let's be real this is even super fun for adults as well. We had a few bummer nights lately with Alex freaking out about going back to school too soon and getting sick - so to calm nerves before bedtime we did a fun crazy monster sticker activity book. The Kids Bookclub activity was also full of fun activities to do before bedtime - because with mom going back to the office some days Alex has been a little more difficult on those nights - and I'm sure for good reason. These activities were fun distractions while I checked my emails before going in the next morning.

Again, I love the cute Monthly Bookmark and new Character for our Story Mat. The magazine was also a fun addition this month - Alex grabbed that first when we got the package. He LOVES any Kid's magazine - so he was beyond excited to read this. He is one of those kids that will refer back to something he read in one of his magazine month's later - run to get it and prove his point. 

We picked the R240 package which included delivery as well as one book, an educational activity and activity book and cute theme of the month bag. I'm pretty impressed and can't wait to see what the next book will be (Although we have received it with this parcel I will share the June one next week )
