Yay! WB’s May 2014 Citrus Lane box is here! I received our other May Citrus Lane box on Friday, but WB’s shipped a little later so it took a bit longer to arrive.
If you aren’t familiar, Citrus Lane is a monthly subscription box for babies from 0 to 5 which contains four or more products selected especially for the age and stage of your child. Citrus Lane is $29/month, but they have a coupon code “TAKE20OFF” which lets you pick up your first box for $9! And if you order an annual subscription the price drops down to $19/month!
Citrus Lane ships via FedEx Smart Post and generally takes about a week to arrive to me. They ship from the West Coast and I am in Michigan. This one took 6 days which was right in line with what I expect.
Eeek! I never really know what exact age WB’s box is (25 months like he is? Or 26 months?), so I am never 100% sure what we will get. I was thrilled to open this box and see the contents. This was the box for this age group that I had seen and was hoping to get!
The May 2014 Citrus Lane box included items to get you in the spirit of summer and to help you to get ready to spend more time outside. Here is what was included:
~Hape Track Roller Sand Toy ($4.99): I just did a giant purge of all of last years icky gross sand toys and am in the process of getting the fresh ones put out, so this is awesome. Plus, I don’t think we have ever had any roller sand toys, so this is better than just a replacement.
~Hape Parthenon Sand Mold ($2.99): Again, a total win. The boys have already put this in the sandbox and it’s being put to good use.
~Goodbyn Hero (~$14.99): I was SO hoping we’d get another one of these and we did! And it’s a different color to boot! LOVE it! Now L has one and WB has one. I pack them picnic lunches sometimes in the summer – even when we are just spending the day at home – and these will be idea. And of course, L will use one for school too.
~Fresh Feet Wipes for Kids from Jasmine Seven ($3.32): These came in L’s box as well and I do not mind spare ones at all. Nobody wants dirty feet.
~Melissa and Doug Paint with Water ($4.99): I am putting this one away for a rainy summer day. And I know we’ll have some of those. I don’t mind a mess, so if WB wants to make a big painting mess, that is fine with me.
~Snack from Back to Nature ($1.50): These cookies are long gone. I think the kids ate them 30 seconds after they saw them in the box! Playing outside makes kids hungry that’s for sure!
All totaled I came up with a value of $32.78 for the May 2104 Citrus Lane box (for a 25 Month-Old Boy). And just like I was with the 4 year-old box, I am thrilled with this one! Everything is very useful to use right now and I love that we got the Goodbyn before you can even buy them in the stores!
