Yes we got bitten by the Canary Crate Bug Craft kit and its all packed with fun and creative ideas! Yes as moms we have many choices of subscription boxes so we need to make informed decisions. My advice choose your objective and most importantly see which ones your kids enjoy the most.
A Crate full of Fun!!
Canary Crate was surely different. Created my moms on themes and topics that kids would love and with the final nod from experts it is packaged in a box for all children to enjoy. These boxes include craft activities and role play activities that the kids are sure to enjoy.
What we heart:
- Crafted by moms. You know that’s the key to my heart
- Open-ended learning: Projects encourage children to draw their own conclusions
- Family Time: We had mom, dad, dadi everyone keen to get their hands on the colouring and activities and join the daughter
- Development Goals: The activities promote learning, social skills, emotional growth and fine motor skills.
- Play-Date Icebreakers: Get your child to forge stronger friendships through pretend play and sharing. This is such a well thought through concept. As moms we always struggle to get kids to do something constructive when we have play dates and this is crafted just for that.
- Doesn’t end at just the box. They provide a lot of DIY stuff in the box and on their website. Recommend browsing this here to see how resourceful it is with recommended books and materials that can reinforce the themes.

What we would love
- To have craft activities that are more utilitarian just like the Dino clock which the kids can use and the parents can keep after the activity. We often get so much craft from school and what the kids make at home that it loses its value for parents as it stashes upto be junk and for the child when he sees a new theme.
- Frill Free Box: While each box is priced at Rs 900 we would love to have a more functional box that has supplies just unique to the box and the general ones like paints, scissors, glue etc could be skipped. This would probably make the box more accessible
 Money Matters
Each themed box is priced at Rs 900 while their annual subscription is priced at Rs 9000 + 2 free boxes. Their special theme boxes for playdates, Rakhi & Independence Day are priced at Rs 300.
