FAQs
What age are Whimsy & Bug boxes suitable for?
Our learning and craft boxes are thoughtfully created for curious children aged 5–11. Younger children may enjoy a little extra help, while older children can explore many of the activities more independently. Every adventure is designed to encourage imagination, creativity and a love of discovering new things.
Do we need to home educate to enjoy Whimsy & Bug?
Not at all! Although our boxes are loved by home-educating families, they're equally wonderful for children who attend school.
Whether you're looking for meaningful after-school activities, weekend adventures or a little more screen-free family time, there's plenty of wonder waiting to be discovered.
What's included in a monthly activity box?
Each box is a little world of discovery! Inside you'll find:
- A beautifully illustrated 20-page learning booklet
- Three creative craft projects with their main materials
- A fourth make-and-decorate pocket booklet
- A letter from Whimsy and access to a magical Moonlight Tale
- Nature activities, science experiments and a recipe
- Stickers, a reading challenge and a collectable badge
Every month brings a different adventure through stories, nature, art, geography, history and science.
Is the featured storybook included?
The featured book is purchased separately and isn't included in your activity box.
Each month we choose a much-loved children's story to inspire part of our learning journey, but the adventures stretch far beyond its pages. Children will explore fascinating places, extraordinary people, wildlife, science and creativity along the way.
Do I need to buy additional craft supplies?
We include the main materials needed for our three featured craft projects, so you can get started without lots of preparation.
Some additional activities, such as baking, science experiments and outdoor adventures, may use everyday household ingredients or items you can discover in nature.
Can I buy just one box without subscribing?
Absolutely! You're welcome to purchase a single adventure for £25.50, with no ongoing commitment.
Or join our monthly club for £21.50 per month, saving £4 on every box, with some lovely subscriber extras along the way.
When will my box arrive?
Our monthly subscriptions renew on the 20th of each month, with boxes dispatched after this date.
UK postage is included in the price, so there are no additional UK delivery charges.
What if I have more than one child?
Wonderwood is even more fun when shared!
Our sibling craft packs are available for £6.50 alongside a full box. They include additional craft materials and templates so siblings can enjoy making their own creations without needing a second complete booklet.
What's the difference between a physical box and a digital edition?
Our physical boxes arrive beautifully packaged with your printed booklet, letter, badge and craft supplies, ready for your family to explore.
Our digital editions bring the same learning adventures to you as printable downloads. Simply print the activities you need and gather your own craft materials.
Digital editions are a lovely, more affordable option for families around the world.
What are Wonderwood Letters?
Wonderwood Letters are a lovely way to enjoy a little piece of Wonderwood without purchasing the complete craft box.
Each pack includes our printed monthly learning booklet, a letter from Whimsy and a collectable reading badge, with access to our Moonlight Tales audio adventure.
Perfect for families who love discovering, reading and creating but prefer to gather their own activity materials.
