Curiosity Club is thoughtfully created for children aged 7–12 years old, a stage full of questions, creativity, and growing confidence. Each box is written and illustrated especially for this age group, combining story-led science, creative projects, and hands-on exploration they can enjoy independently.

Curiosity Crew is designed especially for 4–6 year olds, with age-appropriate storytelling, playful learning, and gentle science activities made to nurture curiosity, creativity, and confidence through nature-based discovery.

That said, every child is different. Some younger or older children may enjoy either box depending on their interests, reading level, and learning style. We have younger Crew members sharing activities with older siblings, and even a few grown-ups who subscribe just for themselves!

The contents of Curiosity Club and Curiosity Crew are completely different within each month, so siblings can enjoy their own unique adventures side by side, without repeats.

All activities are designed to be screen-free and developmentally appropriate, with opportunities for adult support during moments like nature walks, craft assembly, or science experiments.

Safety note: Please note that collectible pin badges and some other items may contain small parts or sharp elements. These are not suitable for children under 36 months and should be kept out of reach of young children and individuals who may have difficulty with small parts.

The activities are designed to be flexible and can be done in small pockets of time throughout the month. They are designed to give children a sense of achievement, but also lead to more engagement if they want to keep going.

Whether you have 15 minutes or a whole afternoon, there's something to engage your child.

We also include a wide range of different activities to suit lots of different learning styles and interests, so don't feel you have to complete everything! The key is to enjoy it and engage with nature.

Curiosity Club (ages 7–12) is mostly child-led, with projects your child can explore independently. Some activities, like experiments or crafts, may need a little adult support.

Curiosity Crew (ages 4–6) is designed for co-learning, with grown-ups playing a gentle guiding role as your child learns through play.

Absolutely! Curiosity Club is based on the seasons as experienced in the Northern Hemisphere.

The stories and activities are rooted in nature and the changing seasons, so while some details may be specific to the UK, the themes of exploration, curiosity, and creativity will feel universal.

Our species spotting exercises are carefully curated to include both European and North American species alternatives, so there’s always something relevant and exciting for your child to discover, no matter where you are. Whether it’s learning about squirrels, foxes, or the changing colours of leaves, these experiences resonate with children across the Northern Hemisphere.

Curiosity Crew is only available in the UK at this time.

The Curiosity Club and Crew are printed in the UK on uncoated stock made from 100% genuine de-inked post consumer waste and FSC® certified. Made in an industry leading mill to strict ISO 14001 standards for environmental management, the paper we use is processed chlorine free (PCF) significantly reducing water contamination from processing.
