Unlike last month, my Citrus Lane box(es) arrived in a timely manner this month. Citrus Lane is one of my favorite boxes and pretty much everyone I know that has a baby gets a gift subscription from me.

May Citrus Lane
The Box

Both of the boxes I received this month were the same size. I get one for WB (13 months) and I used to get one for L, however, since he has aged out of Citrus Lane (they go up to age 5), I changed the age of the box to 37 months (boy). I figure WB can use the items eventually you know?

First Look

I didn’t get any offers for add-ons this month, so my boxes looked normal. I don’t really know how they decide who to offer the add-ons too, but I’d get them every time if they offered them to me. They aren’t really a “deal”, but it’s a chance to try something new without the additional shipping expense. Other than some sort of infant blanket (I think), I am not 100% sure what the add-ons were this month. Does anyone know?

May Citrus Lane
The Information Card

The May Citrus Lane box includes some favorite brands from the Citrus Lane community, including Barefoot Books (if you haven’t checked out my giveaway, you should) and Green Toys! Two brands I know I love! Here is what I got in my 13 month-old boy (aka WB) May Citrus Lane box:

~Up, Up, Up!, Book and CD Set from Barefoot Books ($9.99): WB loves all things songs and music, so he is going to love this book. He’s okay with someone reading to him, but someone singing to him? OMG, he loves it. I can’t wait to play this cd for him! Singing can stop WB tears (no he really cries sometimes, I swear) in an instant. This is perfect!

~Race Car from Green Toys ($8.99): I love all things by Green Toys and, as luck would have it, we don’t have this race car yet! WB loves playing with L’s cars, so I think he’s going to be so excited to get his own. And I mention this every time I discuss Green Toys, but they are made from 100% recycled milk containers. I need to know how this happens. Genius!

~Happy Munchies Rice Cakes from Happy Family ($3.59): We’ve gotten these in another box (bluum maybe?) and loved them, so we are happy to get them again. Not only does WB like these, but L does too. And so do I. If you’ve never tried your kid’s / baby’s snacks, I totally recommend it. They are quite delicious.

~Happy Munchies Veggie & Fruit Crisps from Happy Family ($3.59): I can’t remember if we have ever tried these before? I thought we had, but looking at the picture, I am not so sure? They are gluten-free crisps, made from USDA organic fruits and veggies. They look good and I am sure WB will be enjoy gumming them up. He is STILL working on cutting that fruit tooth. You can see it poking through, but it’s just not quite there yet. B jokes that he’s just going to get his adult teeth in and skip the baby teeth ;).

~Moisture Stick from Deep Steep ($5.95): I got this last month from Stork Stack and loved it, so I love that I am getting another one. I love having it in my bag and reach for it instead of lotion 9 times out of 10. If you haven’t tried this yet, I totally recommend it!

All totaled, I came up with a value of $32.11 for my May Citrus Lane Box (for a 13 month-old boy). Once again everything is totally usable and we loved it! And I know a lot of people dislike the pouches in the box, but I was hoping to get one this month! Maybe next month ;). And I thought I’d spare WB a Citrus Lane photo session this month! He’s had a busy week and is trying to catch up on his sleep today ;).

Here is what I received in my 37 month-old boy box: We All Go Traveling By Book & CD Set from Barefoot Books ($9.99), Pizza Set from Green Toys (~$20 I can’t find the exact one online), Happy Munchies Veggie & Fruit Crisps from Happy Family ($3.59) and Meyer Lemon Moravian Cookies from Salem Baking ($1.99) for a total value of $35.57. And once again, I loved it. The Green Toys Pizza Set is adorable!!!

    We will be receiving our first Citrus Lane box for our 2-year old (29 months) Son this month. It’s set to be delivered on Tuesday and after reading your review I am so excited to see what he gets!

  2. Brandy Fisk

    My son got the same one as WB and loves it!

    We got a different book and CD set, a green toy airplane, the moisture stick, and rice cakes. That was for a 17 month girl. IT was a pretty good box.

    Lately we’ve only been getting 4 items instead of five..the last 3 boxes I think

    I had said I wouldn’t read spoilers….BUT sine WB is a year younger than Tuff Stuff MAYBE I am still spoiler free. I am SOOOO excited to see the Deep Steep moisture stick (ever since stork stack I am addicted) I have scooped them up off of swap groups and even ordered a couple scents from Amazon…I DO hope I get this in our 2 yr old box, how did such a wonderful thing exist and I not know about it until last month?

  5. Jill

    I got my first citrus lane box today! I have a 6 month old daughter. I got bear takes a trip from barefoot books, stacker from green toys, dish liquid from dapple, and both the moisture stick and the rice cakes! Love it all!!

  6. Shannon

    We got the same box for my 16 moth old daughter but of course the Green Toys car was pink! And as always she was more interested in what I got than her stuff…but ad soon as she realized there was food in the box…she was all over it:)

  7. Mackenzie

    We got Ella’s Kitchen goodies instead of Happy Munchies in our 12-month girl box. Everything else was the same. I’m happy with our box this month.

  8. HJ Yu

    My first Citrus Lane box has arrived today. Baby is due next month so most of the stuff I won’t be using immediately). My -1 month box include a book (Bear takes a trip), a rattle key from green toy, mommy’s bliss gripe water, travel size dapple dish liquid, and my favor out of all the mommy hook. Overall I am happy with my box.

  9. Becky

    We got the 13m boy but instead of happy we got an ellas kitchen pouch and nibbly fingers so happy this month was great my son grabbed the pouch right away and begged me to let him have it, luckily it was breakfast time.

  10. So I realize that my little one isn’t even born yet and I just subscribed today using your referral link! I also used the TAKEHALF code too and it still worked! I’m excited to be getting these boxes!!! Now everyone in my family is getting a subscription box, lol!
