Does anyone else feel that their kiddos are a little too plugged in these days?  Can I borrow the iPad?  Where's the Kindle?  Can I play X-Box?  What happened to playing outside or using their imaginations?  Crayons and paper.  Paint and brush.  And with summer here, we need to keep our kids entertained!

Snoqualmie Valley residents, Diane and Julie, a mother and daughter team, and creators and owners of Creative Kids Unplugged want to help your kids unplug with activities that promote creativity, confidence and conversation!
"So often we hear adults and babysitters say, “What should I do with these kids?” and “My kids are too plugged in!”, and yet we don’t always know how to relate and engage with kids in a way that is fun for them. Our activity boxes and other products take the guessing out of trying to find something meaningful to do with a child. You don’t have to be creative; just follow the directions and have fun!"

Creative Kids Unplugged was nice enough to give us the Sports Activity Box and the Garden Activity Box to try out.  Can I say "FABULOUS IDEA!"  {wish I would have thought of it} From the Garden Activity Box my daughter created a bug board game with her friend (which we still play), painted and decorated a bird house and picture frame (both of which were Mother's Day gifts for her grandmother), and decorated and planted a pot of basil ... just to name a few of the things!

The Sports Activity Box had her build a soccer key chain (this varies per box), earn a trophy for playing sports trivia (which she played with her daddy and then again with our neighbor), create a book, play baseball with a blow up bat and ball (she still plays with this outside) and some other fun things!!!

The themed activity boxes are filled with lots of fun for you and a child to share! They combine crafts, games, and activities to inspire creativity, confidence and conversation between kids and adults of all generations. Each box includes all the supplies you’ll need (no need to dig around for glue and paper) so get ready to share some fun with the child in your life!  And these make great gifts too!!!

We've already decided to do the Spy Kit box the day school gets out ... my daughter can hardly wait!
