Freds Box Subscription Box

Hi girls and guys i am back with a review on a subscription box for kids.

My daughter was lucky enough to be send a freds box for her youtube channel.

So she did her first video of an unboxing of the box which will be uploaded at a later date,

so i thought i would do a longer review on here for the adults to read and find out more.

What is fred's box?

Freds box is a monthly subscription box for All children aged 3-12 years.

Although a lot of adults also subscribe to it too because the contents are cool.

They are pretty much boxes everyone can in enjoy especially if you collect mini figures etc.

What boxes are there?

Mystery box

A mystery box full of lovely things, mixture of things you're children will love.

From collectable cards to fidget spinners, or collectable figures and more mystery box will contain a bundle of things you're child will enjoy including a lovely book to read,

Ooshie box

Ooshie box contains Ooshies, this box is great for those who collect Ooshies.

Ooshies are Squishy mini figures, which also double up as pencil toppers.

Twin box

You do not have to have twins to buy this box, you can buy it if you have two kids you want to buy boxes for, which means you save a little money so they both can get a box each,

which works out cheaper than buying 2 separate boxes, cool huh.

What kind of things are in the mystery box?

Mystery boxes are a mystery but you can expect to find things like collectable cards, Ooshies, pencils, books and other cool little things that you will find really awesome.

it is really a mystery which makes opening fred's box that extra bit exciting.  

(Some boxes have included a fidget spinner before)

My thoughts on fred's box

I think the idea is really cool, it is nice for children to have something to look forward to. which means when freds box arrives at your door your children can open their boxes and play with the cool things inside whilst you get on with what you need to do.

Chloes thoughts

I really liked my box it was very cool I was really excited to open it.

I did my first box opening video on youtube with my box, which was also fun.

I loved the cool things inside and would love to get more boxes.

Come find out what was inside chloe's box.

Overall Review

I really love the idea of kids subscription boxes, it gives them something to look forward to.

A box containing cool things just for them which come in the post very exciting.

I love the fact you can request what sort of contents ie unsex, girl or boy.

This works well because it means you're child will have a box of things to suit them.

I think it is reasonable value too because some of the collectible items.

Collectable figures and Cards can be worth more if they are rare.

Figures someone needs to complete their collection can also be worth more.

Which also could be a great investment for children if they collect a whole collection of something so when they're older they could be worth a lot of money.

I would recommend this box to parents who have a little money spare each month to be able to get this wonderful subscription box for their kids to enjoy each month.

So overall myself my hubby and daughter are very impressed with fred's box.

AMAZING MAGAZINE

(Amazing Magazine review and giveaway)

Hi guys and girls I am back with a review and giveaway for you all.

Hope you enjoy this review feel free to get your kids to come read with you.

To see if they like the sound of this fun educational magazine.

The world's most AMAZING children's educational magazine is not only fun to read for children but is full of really cool educational stuff that will help them learn and have fun at the same time. The magazines are also good to keep for any school work they may have on the topics listed in the magazines which is a bonus, as kids homework can be pretty tough even for us adults.

Amazing! is a monthly 36 page publication packed with articles, facts,stories And an annual subscription is just £49 for 12 issues (a whole year)

Teachers and schools receive discounts!

Some of the topics your find with this super cool magazine are the following.

MATHS

ENGLISH

SCIENCE

HISTORY

GEOGRAPHY

ARTS AND LOTS MORE

As you can see many great subjects and what better way to get your kids interested in learning then a cool magazine that makes learning fun for all kids aged 7+ although you could get them for young kids who may be advanced for their age with their learning progress.

Here is a few sneak peaks from the 2 magazines I have

Chloe says the magazine is brilliant, she says she really likes the funny boogy recipe which involves popcorn and Tasty gungy green stuff, She also really loved the cool word searches in the book and said they are not only fun to do but have cool words.

She said some of the words in magazine are tricky to read but she loves when mummy and daddy sit down with her to read it and laugh at silly bits and have fun talking about the wonderful things and playing the little quizzes Guessing the answer right before mummy and daddy makes me feel very clever.

My thoughts overall

I really enjoyed reading the magazines with chloe, normally with books i struggle and lose interest rather quick and reading hurts my eyes, but with magazines I can enjoy reading alot more so not only did it help me be able to sit down and read with chloe, it made her happy that we could sit down and learn cool things together.

I love how there is many different things in each magazine making it fun for adults and children so rather then been on one thing as you turn the pages there is always something new to find out the cartoons in the magazine along with the info makes learning fun.

I recommend these magazines  to anyone who has children who love magazines and comics and want to use that as a great advantage for their child to learn new things.

These magazines are a great way to get kids interested in history maths etc so would also be helpful for homework times especially if there is something in the magazine that they can write about for a history project, or science etc with the things to make in the book that also comes in handy too if you're stuck for ideas what to do on a rainy day.

As you can tell overall I am impressed with the magazine and its price.

the only downside to the magazine is there is no free gifts on the front, which is a shame even if it was little bits n bobs that is needed for the make and do things that would come in handy or even fact cards with science facts to keep or something to that effect.
