Aside from all the useful resources that are packed into each Think Outside Box, I love how well timed the boxes are with the calendar year.  The creators put a lot of effort into making the boxes relevant to each season.  Thanks to our latest Think Outside Box, the kids and have been studying WEATHER this month.

Isn’t spring, with it’s wild changes and features, the perfect time to learn about weather? We have been particularly focused on studying clouds: Identifying, learning about their characteristics, and using them to predict the forecast.  Thanks to the handy “Live and Learn” resource cards included in this month’s box, it’s been easy to quickly figure out what’s happening in the sky.

In this month’s unboxing video, you’ll see the rest of the Weather Box contents, plus some of our cloud study in action.  Not familiar with Think Outside Boxes? Here’s a quick rundown:

Think Outside Boxes is a year-long monthly subscription service that’s geared towards kids 7 and up! Each month, subscribers receive a box in the mail based around a theme.

After the intro box, each box includes up to 5 pieces of outdoor gear, an activity book, and a set of waterproof reference cards that goes along with the month’s theme.
