So, I was reading a magazine recently (can't remember which one) and saw something about a subscription called Citrus Lane. Essentially these are care packages for parents. Every month you subscribe you receive a package with cute and practical items for your child. Each month has a different theme and the boxes are usually worth anywhere from $50 to $60 but you're only paying about $25/mo. We have received two boxes so far and I can't even tell you how excited I get to receive my monthly box. This specific monthly service caters to children ages birth thru 3 years. There are also other services for those that are older. There's BabbaBox for ages 3 thru 6 that includes a theme based box with activities, knowledge and experiences you can have with your child throughout the month. Kiwi Crate is another site that provides crafts and activities for children ages 3 thru 7. I'm not sure which one of those we'll do when Keira reaches those ages but I will definitely be doing one of them.
For those that don't have kids or just want to pamper yourselves I got Birchbox for Christmas and am loving it so far too. I had read about it on a friend's blog a few months ago and she just raved about it, but I never looked into it further. Now that I've received 2 boxes now I'm loving it. And it's very affordable at only $10/mo.
Check all these out. Let me know what you think. Seriously LOVING Citrus Lane though. I highly recommend it.
