KiwiCo in Australia: Everything you need to know
Table of Contents
Raising kids is not without its challenges. With so many toys, tablets and passing fads vying for their attention, it can feel like an uphill battle trying to provide enriching, educational activities for your kids that are actually fun. It can also be disheartening to spend money on expensive art and craft supplies that just end up collecting dust in a cupboard. Enter KiwiCo, which provides fun and educational material for kids via monthly activity boxes for kids, and is available in Australia.
KiwiCo’s mission is to deliver fun learning for kids of all ages, to inspire excitement, curiosity, and moments of discovery, and kickstart a lifelong interest in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics).
What is KiwiCo?
KiwiCo specialises in monthly and bi-monthly subscription-based educational products for children of all ages and interests. They offer a range of hands-on activity kits designed to engage kids in learning through fun and creative projects. Each crate is tailored to different age groups and focuses on various topics, including science, engineering, art, maths, cooking and more.
KiwiCo aims to provide children with opportunities to explore and learn about various subjects while also promoting creativity, problem-solving skills, and critical thinking. The company's subscription model typically involves delivering new kits on a regular basis, allowing kids to experience new activities and challenges over time.
What comes in a KiwiCo crate?
There are nine types of KiwiCo crate, providing a huge variety of options for kids of all ages, even newborns (and the young at heart). So, the answer to this question varies depending on your choice. In each crate, you will receive project supplies, detailed instructions, and educational content (with an option for additional reading materials, see KiwCo Deluxe below).
Three examples of Eureka Crates, with projects focused on Engineering & DesignCredit: KiwiCoOne of the more popular crates for teens is the Eureka Crate, which can cost as little as A$40.93 per month, and features projects centred around teaching principles of engineering and design. Since KiwiCo provides a recurring service, each month you will receive a new set of puzzles, games, and more, depending on the crate you have chosen. The exception to this is the Panda Crate for babies and toddlers, which gets delivered every other month, with two months worth of products.

KiwiCo crates are an exciting, recurring box full of play, with something to offer for children of all ages and interests. Above, we’ve focused primarily on the crates for tweens and above, with activities centred around enriching a young scientific mind. However, a great benefit of KiwiCo’s product lines are the range of topics, and levels of complexity for kids of different ages, skill sets and interests. The Yummy Crate is a particularly impressive option, which can teach important cooking and food science lessons to growing kids. In addition to this, the Panda Crate is a fantastic starting point for newborns and toddlers, which can take a lot of the pressure off new parents as they struggle to find fun, colourful activities that won't “rot their brains”.
