We received one of our two February 2015 Citrus Lane boxes in the mail today! I get a box for WB who is 2.5 and then have another box I get for a 4.5 year-old boy. The differences in the ages gives me a good variety between the boxes and generally the items in the 4.5 year-old box (which is this box) work for both WB and L (he’s 6)!
If you aren’t familiar, Citrus Lane is a monthly subscription box for babies from 0 to 5 years old which contains four or more products selected especially for the age and stage of your child. Citrus Lane is $29/month, but they always have great coupon codes that let you try them out very inexpensively!
Citrus Lane ships via FedEx Smart Post. They used to ship out of California, but it appears that they now ship out of Las Vegas. It still took about a week to get my box, but I thought I’d note the change.
I didn’t know which age group this box would be for before I opened it up and it took me a minute to realize it as the 4.5 year-old box!
My information card was totally wrong. It was NOT for the box I received. I am guessing that this was card for maybe a 1-2 year old? No matter, here is what my February 2015 Citrus Lane box contained:
~Hape Lacing Skate (Red) ($9.99): We were able to select between a blue skate or a red skate this month. We opted for Red. It’s used to help your little one to tie their shoes and littler ones (like WB) just like to push it around!
~Barefoot Books “I Could Be, You Could Be” ($6.99): Super cute book that L is able to read all on his own! It also has some instructions in the back to make your own masks to act out some of the scenes in the book.
~Tegu Magnetic Wooden Triangles ($15): We have some Tegu blocks and while they are super cool, they are also super expensive, so we don’t have a ton. They are magnetic and you can make all sorts of cool things with them. We will be adding these toy the ones we have and now we’ll be able to make even more cool things. I may even try and trade for more of these. They are fantastic and will last for ages.
~Yummy Earth Sour Beans ($3.34): I am going to save these for L’s lunch when he heads back to school next week. He’s had them before and totally loves them!
All totaled I came up with a value of $35.32 for the February 2015 Citrus Lane box. I got an awesome deal on my subscription and pay about $15/month so I am thrilled with this! I think this is a box you need to do a longer subscription for because you get SUCH a better deal!

My box should arrive tomorrow. While the value isn’t bad, I feel like the boxes the last 6 months or so have been missing something. They just feel a little incomplete for some reason.
I’m super disappointed with the box this month again. I understand that some of these boxes are just to sample items but what is your kid suppose to do with only 4 magnetic blocks? That is highly disappointing. They could have done one of the sets that at least a bit larger so that they could do something with it. I will def be letting them know again in their surveys. Not that they listen to them :/
