This unit is all about exploring the woodlands! Ready for some detective work? This crate includes an “Owl Pellet Mystery” kit where we will grab a pair of gloves and tweezers to carefully pick apart the pellets and discover some cool things about an owl's diet! We’ll also go on a scavenger hunt, create leaf imprints, and construct a diorama for the clay animals we create! Everything you need is included.

What age is this for?
Are your products educational? They are and the kids won’t even realize it! Our seasonal and unit crates will include an activity guide aligned with learning goals to walk you through each activity we have planned. We’ve also included general learning standards in both the preschool and elementary crates so if you’re using this as a resource for your curriculum the color-coded buttons will help navigation which areas of learning each activity covers.
What learning topics are covered? All of them! Seasonal and mini crates include activities that cover Art, Math, Science, Literacy, Social Studies, Physical Development and Social & Emotional Development!
Can the materials be reused? Yes! Most of the activities are created in a way that they can be used multiple times.
When are the crates released? Seasonal crates are released four times per year.
Once we have passed the release date, crates will be shipped within 3 business days of ordering.
Can I just buy one season? Yes, you can!
I have more than one child, do I have to buy multiple crates? The materials included can be used by one or multiple children at the same time. However, some of the specific materials for activities may only include 1 piece. To help with this, we have two options:
How do I decide?
Make learning a lifestyle. With resources for all ages and learning styles, your whole family can Explore the Woodlands together. Younger siblings can practice early literacy, math, and fine motor skills with our Preschool Woodland Pack. Busy hands big and small are in for hours of open-ended play with the Woodland Busy Bin, and the Forest Magna-Tiles are the perfect educational toy for expanding woodland play.
Just imagine ... it's a Tuesday morning, and your third-grader is intently building his forest diorama on the playroom floor while little sister plays hide-and-seek with the animal figurines in her Busy Bin. After lunch, brother curls up on the couch with The Wild Robot for independent reading and sis gets some 1:1 time playing Acorn Roll & Cover with you. Later, while you're making dinner, the two kiddos are working together to build a Magna-Tiles house for their forest friends (it's the raccoon's birthday!). That's the magic of family-style learning! And that's a Knowledge Crates Unit Study. 😉
