Alyssa is really an arts and crafts kinda girl. Her teacher mentioned to me that although only 2, Alyssa loves doing arts and crafts and is one of the few toddlers in the class that likes to finish a project from beginning to end. From macaroni necklaces to beaded hearts, every week she comes home with a new creation.

It was therefore much to our delight when we were approached to try out the new Surpriso arts and Crafts Box.

Surpriso is a monthly arts and crafts subscription box delivered to your door with all the materials and step by step instructions, for kids to build, make, and develop their confidence. The crafts are ideally for children aged 5-8 but if you have a younger arts and crafts fundi like Alyssa, then its perfect too. We completed all of the crafts over 2 weekends and it was so much fun.

Each month a new themed box is delivered to your door with do it yourself arts & crafts activities. Each box contains 3-5 age appropriate craft activities and all the materials to create them and all delivery isFREE to all major centres across South Africa.

Alyssa especially loved the Magnet fishing project. She got to colour in the fish and after her Dad and I cut them out and attached the paperclips, she had fun fishing 🙂
