#KidsCraft With @BayoBundles Monthly Activity Kits

September 22, 2014 By: MapleMouseMama76 Comments

bayo bundlesEarlier this month I shared an interview with the founder of Bayo Bundles and Mompreneur Riley with you. Riley’s creative idea of sending out Monthly Activity Kits to families is pure genius! Riley was kind enough to provide my two kiddos with one of her kits to try it out for ourselves, I mean themselves. My first impression was how fast the delivery service was.  Shipping is free with your Bayo Bundle order, but that did not mean it was slow.  My next gasp of surprise came when we opened up the box.  Here is what we found:

bayo bundlesAll of this came in one box! And it was not just one craft inside, but two, plus the activity part itself.  I was blown away with the amount of stuff that each Monthly Activity Kit contains.  The theme for our kit is “Make Your Own Organic Garden” and it held everything you could possibly think of to make a garden.  There was pots and paint, dirt and seeds, a kit for making a scarecrow (so smart!) and a wonderful instruction booklet with each step included.  It also has a few recipes to try out ways to use the result of your organic garden.  I was so excited to go through this with the kids and they were eager to start.

With such a wonderful array of activities to keep the kiddos busy we did not complete all of them, but that made it even better. Now we have another craft to work on and then the actual garden to plant.  Talk about value!  You can not go wrong with a Bayo Bundle Monthly Activity Kit.  The kids will have something new to look forward to each month and as their parent or guardian you can get involved for some quality time or relax while they create. It’s a win win!

Check out some of the photos I took of the kids painting their pots.  You can see how “into it” they were. Such concentration!  There was plenty of paint to go around and Riley even includes the brushes. 🙂 I’m telling you, lots of value to be had in this kit..

Stay tuned as the kids and I continue to make our way through our Bayo Bundle Monthly Activity Kit.  More pictures to follow soon! In the meantime head over to see Riley at Bayo Bundles and see how easy and affordable a monthly subscription is. You can find Riley and Bayo Bundles here on Facebook and also on Twitter.

What do you think of our creations?

    It’s great to hear that shipping is for free. But would that also hold true to international shipments? I would love to buy a box for my cousins.

    Doing such activities will not only allow kids to developed their confidence and creativity, it is also good bonding time for parents (with other kids’ parents), as well as with the kids if you are alone! Like how you share these activities to share and motivate other parents to do so too!
