A bit about Peekapak – they are an emerging subscription box designed for families with children aged 4-8 to bring play-based learning into the home.  Play-based learning is important for a young child’s development as it helps facilitates their interaction with peers, materials and ideas.  Countless studies have documented the benefits which include increased creativity, imagination and better problem solving.  Although most educators are familiar with play-based learning, most families are not – and so Peekapak was developed.  They include all the materials to complete the crafts too!  I love the idea of combining crafts and books.  Peekapak is $24.99 a month with discounts for longer subscriptions.  You can also get a sibling add on pack for $12.99 a month.  If you click HERE you’ll be able to get your first box for only $5.  But hurry because this offer ends on November 2nd!
