MEET RIA

I’m Ria, a mother of two (ages 5 and 9), a science communicator, and an illustrator. 

I long for my children to grow up with curiosity, creativity and confidence, yet I found it difficult to create ways to support this development with all the demands of daily life.

I want my children to grow up passion and excitement about nature, to cherish their belongings, and to value the world around them, but I struggled to find resources that didn’t add to the throwaway culture I so wanted to avoid.

Curiosity Club is my answer to this struggle. It’s the resource I wish I could find: a simple, stunning and sustainable way to connect with my children, nurture their love for the natural world, and help them grow into confident, creative individuals.

I hope it can do the same for your family.

    I am blown away by the Curiosity Club pack we received, it is such a beautiful high quality subscription, I wanted it for myself! My daughter has loved learning all of the facts and reciting them to everyone she meets and spent a relaxing morning colouring in the postcard to send to her best friend. She loves the patch too and is already excited about what is coming in the next box. So fabulous to see classic kids fun like this in a world of technology and screen time. And the best bit is that she’s learning too! So excited for the next box!

  • Anna, Cheshire

    I had the best childhood. A nature filled, nostalgic, old fashioned one that lives on in me. I worry about creating this for my daughter. I saw Curiosity Club and instantly connected with the concept, it’s just what I want to do. I’m really looking forward to some peaceful, special time with my daughter enjoying the booklets. The embroidery patches are unique and almost have that nostalgic vibe about them which I’m really pleased for my daughter to collect.

Absolutely beautiful

I bought this for my 6yo and me to do, reconnect with nature, and enjoy some creative and interesting activities together. Our first impression is that these packs are so incredibly beautiful, well thought out, and totally unique. They’re very inspiring and, although it is taking us a bit of time to get through them (short attention spans for both of us!!!) this is by no means a reflection of the packs. They’re filled with art, information and a huge variety of activities so there’s really something for everyone. We’re motivated by the curiosity club achievement tracker, and look forward to filling it up.

Just what my screen-loving child (and I!) needed

It’s so hard to pry my eight-year-old son from his screens — movies, shows, games, Minecraft, YouTube videos of… other people playing Minecraft — but he’s filled with joy and life whenever we step outside. I subscribed to Curiosity Club for him with this in mind, and, though we’re only one month in, it’s already a hit. Highly recommended.

Happy Child!

My Daughter has recieved her second little box of fun and loves it. She finds the crafts inspiring (she made bird wings) and the pins and patches lovely. In fact, she is struggling to decide where to affix them! She immediately reads everything when they come in the mail. Thank you.

Early winter box

What a beautifully presented box! My 5 year old son loves nature and being outside so this was the perfect gift for him. He had been learning about hibernation at school and we have built a hibernation station on our allotment. We are heading to the woods to do the scavenger hunt. He is also excited to start filling in his field journal. Would highly recommend this product for any young nature enthusiasts!

It"s such a cool thing!

I really like the artwork, it is so pretty and so amazing. I love the affirmations accompanying the patches; I will definitely be putting them on my bag, and you can also give it to somebody as a gift.
I love learning all the different facts and I love how the science and the story go together when you do the discovery walks, the crafts and the other activities. I especially like how you can go out and find stuff using the discovery guide; I can do this with my little brother so he doesn't feel like he's not getting anything.
I love how it brings art and mindfulness and science together. I definitely want to continue receiving these boxes.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What age group is Curiosity Club designed for?

Curiosity Club is created for children aged 7-12 years old. We’ve designed our materials to be age-appropriate, but as every child is different, we encourage parents or guardians to decide if each activity is suitable for their child.

We also highlight where adult assistance may be sensible, such as with crafts involving sharp tools or cooking activities.

Additionally, some items, like pin badges, contain small parts and sharp elements and could pose a choking hazard or risk of injury if handled carelessly. These items are not suitable for children under 36 months and should be handled with care, so please ensure they are kept out of reach of young children and individuals who may have difficulty with small parts.

How much time will the activities take each month?

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.

Do I need to be involved in every activity?

Many activities can be done independently by your child. We encourage parents to join in when possible. The included parent guide offers tips on how to support your child’s learning and make the most of your time together in nature.

What are the sustainability credentials?

The Curiosity Club is 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

Will Patch or Pin designs repeat?

Patch and pin designs will not repeat within your subscription.

Is Curiosity Club suitable for families outside UK?

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 from October's edition 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.
