Buzzing Bee BizzyBox to help cure the
girls Holiday Boredom
I know it is meant to Spring with nice weather and all, but no matter
what we do or how much Orange juice and vitamins we take we always seem to get
sick this time of the year. When the girls get sick I really don’t like taking
them out as they get quite grumpy and just want to snuggle on the couch. When
my youngest is sick and the eldest is not I always try and find something for
her to do.
Thankfully BizzyBox has come to our rescue this time around and saved
Hayley from the holiday boredom.
So you may be asking What is
BizzyBox?
BizzyBox (www.bizzybox.com.au) is an
exciting monthly subscription service featuring educational and learning toys
specifically designed for children aged 3-7 years of age. Including arts and
crafts, science activities and imaginative play, BizzyBoxes are designed by
teachers and education specialists to help develop transductive reasoning,
stimulate imagination and refine fundamental skills of sorting, sequencing,
counting, memory and puzzling in an exciting way outside the classroom. Parents
too will look forward to playtime as their child cuts, pastes, draws, traces
and threads. Now, that’s Boxed up brilliance!
Packed with three exciting and uniquely-themed (from the Circus to the
Farm) educational activities, BizzyBox caters for varying interests and
learning abilities, to help keep kids entertained and at the same time develop
fundamental skills at each stage of early childhood. Heralded as a novel and modern
educative tool, these magic little boxes have already attracted the attention
of hundreds of children, schools, kindergartens and parents nationwide.

active interest in interactive play,’ says Founder Caroline Tate.
BizzyBoxes
will enchant and delight with interchangeable monthly themes which provide just
the right amount of instruction and inspiration for children to enjoy success
and stimulate imagination.
We were
sent the Let’s Explore Bugs Box.
In the box
we found things to make a
Butterfly Paint and Print- This was
my daughter’s favourite one to make was the Butterfly Paint and Print. I think
this was so because the second time around we let Hails use some finger
painting and created a second one with finger dots rather then using the paint
brush.
Flying Bee- This one was a lot harder for her to do by
herself but she was more then happy for me to help her and watch the bee fall
into place. We found it quite hard to
make it “fly” on a door knob so we ended up hanging it from my daughters roof
and watch it fly that way. In the end when it is all created it actually looks
really good!!
Bee and Beetle Tic Tac Toe- With this one
I helped Hails drawing the actual design on the bugs and beetles but apart from
that she did everything all by herself and loved being able to pop her smock on
again. This provided lots of fun and when she finished playing tic tac toe she
took the rocks (bugs and beetles) into the garden and made them a little
wonderland which I thought was super cute and imaginative.
Our girls
will get glitterized with the Fairytale BizzyBox, whilst boys can clown around
with a Circus related theme.
