Citrus Lane April 2015 box for Kai...!

We received Kai's CL box today and it didn't disappoint.

This is his last box.  It was a fun subscription for us!

I had a $15/month subscription.

Info card.

Wonder Words from Barefoot Books

This is a really fun book to look at.  

It's educational and this will teach Kai a lot of new vocabularies.

Retails for $19.99

Dino Lacing Cards by Stephen Joseph

This is a fun lacing toy.  We got the dino version which is very cool.

This helps build hand-eye coordination and color matching skills.

Retails for $9.99

Mini Fastbacks by Green Toys

Luka also got a Green Toys airplane this month.

Kai got 2 stylish coupes.  This was the first toy he grabbed out of the box.

Retails for $8.99

Whole Grain Cookies by My Super Cookies - blueberry vanilla

I haven't opened these yet but I have a feeling Kai is going to love it.

Organic whole grain cookies. Yum!

I'll save this for one of our outings.  Maybe we will take it to the park tomorrow!

Retails for $0.70

The value of this month's box (roughly) comes to $39.67

Well, this month ends our subscription for Kai's account.

It was such an awesome kid's subscription and we certainly received many wonderful toys and books.

I learned about new brands and I love the new additions to our kid's 'library'.

Thank you Citrus Lane!

Citrus Lane April 2015 box for Luka...!

We received Luka's April box!

We did not get any customization options this month so I had no clue what we were getting.

Again, I pay $15/month for this subscription.

Luka has one more month left after this.

Airplane by Green Toys

Green Toys is a great toy company.  Their toys are made from recycled plastic and great quality too!

This airplane was a hit! 

"Vroom!"

Retails for $14.99

Wow, this item alone has paid for the box.  The rest are like bonuses.

Bear on a Bike by Barefoot Books

I love the cardboard books from CL.  Barefoot Books have a great collection and I'm happy to add this one to our kids library.  Very colorful and fun to read.

Retails for $6.99

Handprint Art Kit by Pearhead

This kit comes with non-toxic paint, paint tray and a paintbrush.

I'm excited to try this!  This will make for a very cute keepsake.

Retails for $14.95

Ella's Kitchen Nutrition Shake - *Coconut milk*

Eh...I've tried Ella's Kitchen products before (when Kai was a baby) and I wasn't a fan.

I'm not sure about this one...coconut milk rubs me the wrong way but I realized that my preferences shouldn't interfere with the kids.  So I may let Luka try this out and see if he likes it.

Retails for $2.50

The plane toy was definitely the big ticket item.

I'm glad Luka loves it ♥

The total value of this month's CL box (roughly) comes to $39.43

Kai's (last) box is on it's way and I have no clue what is in his box either.

Citrus Lane March 2015 box for Kai...!

Kai's Citrus Lane arrived today! yay!

Next month will be his last box.

カイの「3月ボックス」が届きました。

カイは来月で終了。

さ～て、何が入ってるかな？

This looks fun!

お～楽しそう！

Melissa & Doug Reusable Sticker Pad - Habitat (CL exclusive)

If you look closely, it says "Citrus Lane" on it.

This was made exclusively for CL members.

The original sticker pads are actually a bit wider.

They made a slightly smaller size for CL, I"m guessing so it fits the boxes better.

I prefer this size anyway--much easier to carry on the go.

I love this! and so does Kai.

It comes with 150 stickers and different 'habitats'.

The stickers are reusable.  This is never ending sticker fun!

シール本。

Retails for $4.99

Rocket Ship Apron (CL exclusive) by Handstand Kids

This is awesome!  Kai now has his own apron.

He will love this.  I think it's time for some baking!

子供用のエプロン。

これでキッチンのお手伝いお願いしま～す。

Retails for ~$20.00

Dinosaur Wallet by Stephen Joseph

This is a full functioning wallet for kids!

Another great item.

I think I'll save this for his 4th birthday.

He doesn't need a wallet just yet.  We haven't started teaching him about money but he understands credit cards I think.  Maybe I'll fill this up with empty gift cards.

お財布。

Retails for $8.99

Honey Graham Sticks by Back to Nature

All natural snack.

I've had this before and they are good.

We opened it right away and ate it all.

YUM!

オーガニック・クッキー

Retails for $1.00

All in all, this was an awesome box!

Kai loves the sticker pad, the apron is a nice addition and the wallet is a dinosaur, Kai's favorite!

I think Kai had the better box this month.

The total value of this month's box (roughly) comes to $34.98.

For only paying $15, that's a great deal.

Citrus Lane March 2015 box for Luka...!

(Unboxing this month's Citrus Lane)

This month's Citrus Lane has arrived!

Luka's box was delivered before Kai's.

He was excited to see what he got!

Again, I pay $15/month and Luka has 2 more months left on his subscription.

今月も届きました。

ルカの「3月ボックス」

今月はどんなものが入ってるかな？

This month, the customization option was the bow tie!

I chose the yellow and blue plaid pattern.

It's pretty cute!

Johnson & Johnson head to toe wash & bubble bath

I was a bit 'meh' about this one.

CL usually sends out 'new' products and/or 'organic' 'eco' products.

I was surprised they sent out such a normal standard baby wash.

The whole point of CL is to try new things so a few subscribers were unhappy about this.

I'm happy to have these since we use J&J but it would've been nice to get something that I don't already own.

Retails for $4.39 (for both)

Tweat Snack Ball by Ubbi

This is cool!

It's a snack container with a unique opening that prevents snacks from falling out.

I'm really happy with this one!

Retails for $9.99

My First Phone by Plan Toys

Unfortunately, this is a duplicate item for us. :(

We already have one... But now Kai and Luka can have their own.

Retails for $10.00

Baby Bow Tie - Blue & Yellow Plaid

This is super cute!

I'm not sure exactly when we will use this but I'm assuming this was added for the upcoming Easter.

It has a magnet that keeps it around the neck so it's safe and easy to use.

The size is good for 0~8yrs but I was able to put it around my neck so really, anyone could wear this.

We will use it for special occasions ♥

Retails for $25.00 (wow, that's expensive)

The bow tie is probably my favorite.

It looks really cute!

So the total value of this month's box (roughly) comes to $49.38.

A great value for only paying $15.  yay!

Citrus Lane February 2015 box for Luka...!

Here's Luka's box!

(Kai's box is in a post below)

Just like Kai's, I've extended Luka's subscription for another 3 months for $15/month.

I went to cancel last month but was offered this great deal.

今月もやって来ました。

ルカの2月ボックス。

さぁ～何が入ってるのかな？

This month, Luka's customization was for the Bath Squirters.

The rest was a complete surprise!

Info card.

Bath Squirters by Alex Toys

I chose this set--vehicles!

It comes with a plane, car, boat and firetruck.  I like the baggie too.

The other options were farm animals and sea animals.

I thought this was the cutest one. 

These are perfect for Luka's bath time.  He's gonna love them!

お風呂用のおもちゃ。

バッグもかわいい！

Retails for $11.00

Wobble-a-Round by Manhattan Toy Co.

This is the cutest thing ever!

It's a miniature version of those bead-maze toys.

Can you tell Luka loves it?  We took this in our car today while I ran some errands.

Retails for 10.00

Oogaa silicone bowl and 2 baby spoons

I was introduced to this brand by CL.

We have their silicone place mat, which we use.

Now we have their bowl and spoons.

I wish I bought these spoons earlier--I used it tonight and it was a smooth feeding.

(bowl) Retails for 8.99

(spoons) Retails for 5.99

Green Apple Age Defy Moisturizer by Juice Beauty

This item is obviously for the moms.

Why thank you!

I received a Juice Beauty hand cream in the past so I thought this was a repeat.

But it's a face moisturizer.  Very happy to have!

Retails for $11.25

Another awesome box by Citrus Lane.

We will use everything and I felt this was a well curated box for Luka's age.

The total value of this month's box (roughly) comes to $47.23

Great value for paying only $15

Citrus Lane February 2015 box for Kai...!

It's that time of the month again--Citrus Lane 

surprise boxes for the kiddos!

I've extended the subscription another 3 months for $15/month.

I went to cancel last month but they offered this great deal.

Now that I know I can get a $15 deal, I don't think I'll ever want to pay more than that.

If I don't get this offer again, I'll unsubscribe next time.

さぁ～何が入ってるのかな？

This month, we had the option to customize the Hape Lacing Skate.

The rest was a complete surprise--I didn't see any spoilers this month.

I like what I see!

Info card.

Hape Lacing Skate - color *red*

We had the option to pick this red one or blue one.

I liked the red ^_^

This is a 'lacing' toy--meant for kids to learn and practice tying their shoes, etc.

This is such a neat idea!

I think it might be a little early to start teaching Kai but I'll keep this out and wait for him to strike interest.

おもしろい！

Retails for $11.99

I Could Be, You Could Be - Barefoot Books

I love Barefoot Books--they have a great selection.

We received a couple already and they are easily my favorite kid books.

This book is about using your imagination and dreaming big!

絵本。

Retails for $6.99

Tegu Magnetic Blocks - Citrus Lane Exclusive set of 4

OOooh~ excited about these!

These are popular but expensive.  They are wooden blocks with magnets inside.

It looks like they partnered with CL for a small sample set of 4 blocks.

If Kai loves it, we can get more.  But I think he'll have fun with just these.

We have so many blocks!

Retails for $12.50

(This was an exclusive item so I couldn't find the exact price. This is an estimate based on their other sets)

Yum Earth Naturals Sour Beans - 2 packs

Organic, all natural sour beans aka gummies.

I haven't given Kai any 'candy' yet...he's had chocolate but I really don't want to start on candy just yet.  But I figured he's gotta start someday right?

Well these are all natural, organic and made with real fruit juice...so I let him have some.

We shared a pack together ♥

He loved it!

Retails for est. $1.15

He loved it!  

I'll save the 2nd pack for another day. 

Overall, this was a good month for Kai!

We loved everything in the box, YAY!

The total value of this month's box (roughly) comes to $32.63

Not bad for paying only $15♥
