Holiday GIft Guide 2009: Project of the Month Club

Posted by Caryn Bailey 1 Comment

I talk a lot about how my son and I spend time coloring and crafting.  I believe it’s just as important to stimulate my son’s mind and creativity as it is to get his muscles moving and active outside.  Perhaps you’re like me, and struggle to come up with new and interesting crafts and projects. With winter here, we’re spending more and more time indoors and I struggle to keep my son entertained for long periods of time with books and play.  And I definitely don’t want him in front of the TV or computer all day.

The Project of the Month Club is a wonderful, educational gift that a child will enjoy all year round.  Designed for children ages 3-11, the Project of the Month Club offers much in the way of flexibility. You can choose from four different types of projects, depending on your child’s interests and personality (Woodworking, Future Designers, Aspiring Artists, or Seismic Scientists). If you’re purchasing a membership for a gift, you may want to consider the Mix & Match option which will offer diverse types of projects in all four categories.  You can also choose how frequently you want the child to receive projects from quarterly to monthly and everything in between.

So what comes in each project package?  We received a wooden bank and a tissue box cover to create.  Everything you need to complete each project is provided in the package.  For example, the bank project pack included the wood, plexi-glass, screws, sandpaper, paint, and paintbrushes.   This was definitely a project designed for children older than my son.  So my husband put it together and then painted it with my son.  I actually found the tissue box cover challenging, but not impossible. I like the fact that within each project there are diverse ways of making it unique.  For example, the tissue box project also offered ideas on making a purse and other projects using the materials in the project pack. Some projects are designed for younger children, others for older children.  I have not seen every project available, however, I think that parental involvement is important, particularly with younger children.

I like the idea of a child receiving different types of projects (including some that can be completed in an afternoon v. projects that require more time).  If you decide during your membership, that you’d like to switch categories, that is also an option (but may take a month or two).  Memberships begin at $65 (Project Two-Pack) and prices vary depending on how frequently you’d like the child to receive a project.  You also have the option of enrolling more than one child in the club.  Once enrolled, you’ll also have access to the Kids’ Clubhouse, Parents’ Area, and Grandparents’ Area where you can upload photos of your completed projects, submit your own idea for a project, or obtain ideas for projects you’re working on.

While the cost upfront may seem a bit high, consider what it would cost to purchase everything you’d need for one project individually.  I like having everything already put together in one package and shipped without having to worry about going to the craft store to find everything I would need for one project. Right now you’ll save 10% with the Promo Code 80304.
