I received month 1 and 2 for review.

The box shipped by USPS and came in a box, decorated with space stickers.

First Look

All the items for month one fit in this cute lunchbox.  All the magnets in each box, stick right on the sides.

Space Scouts sent a welcome letter and postcard that tells you all about Space Scouts.

Sticker Scramble: Your child peals each sticker off the sheet and sticks them on the appropriate box.

Wikki Stix (Toy): This is the toy in the box.  There is also a rocket connect the dots.  Your child uses the Wikki Stix to connect the dots.  I remember using Wikki Stix as a child, and I loved them.

There were three activity sheets, with various activities to do.  There is a word search, puzzles, decoding, and fun constellation activities.

In the first month, you get a constellation cover card with a key ring.  There is also information sheet to explain all about constellations.

There is a nice size poster.  This is really cool and every month your child gets stickers to put on it.

Complete First Month Box:  This is a great box and full of fun activities.  Keep reading and check out what happens on month 2.

All the second month's activities come in a little pouch.

The featured constellation this month is Ursa Major.  There is a constellation card for the key ring, and the story about how the constellation came to be.  I read this to my almost 5 year old and he loved the story.

There is an astronaut picture you child peels off the sheet (stickers) and  and assembles.  There small square is two stickers, that you stick on the rocket ship on the poster.  The Jett and Roxy magnet sticks right on the lunchbox.

 There were several activity sheets in this box.  You child can draw themselves as an astronaut,  learn about parts of a spacesuit, explore food in space and other fun activities.  Space Scouts really brings fun into learning.

Robotic Arm:  This is an awesome activity.  Space Scouts included a robotic arm to help teach kids about moving objects in space.  My oldest son really loves this activity.

Month 2 was really fun.  The robotic claw is really cool and fun for kids.  There were many activities for a child to do and learn about Astronomy.

Final Thought: Space Scouts is a really fun subscription, that lets kids explore and learn about space.  As a fellow science geek, I would have loved to have a subscription like this as a child.  This is a great subscription for children who are interested in space.  If you want to check out Space Scouts, click HERE.
