Review: Kids Faith Krate + Discount Code!

It’s always fun to get mail, and especially when it it something that will keep the kids busy for a bit.  We recently heard about Kids Faith Krate and were offered a June Camp Krate to check out for you guys.  I received crafts and supplies for two children, my 6 year old and my 11 year old.

About Kids Faith Krate:

Founder Lynsey is a former teacher, now stay at home mom of two. After praying about how the Lord wanted her to begin discipleship with her children, God revealed an even bigger plan that grew into Kids Faith Krate.

What’s Inside?

Kids Faith Krate crafts change from month to month and are best suited for ages 4-10.

1. Four weekly Bible lessons to do with your child!

2. Four crafts to go along with each week’s lessons.

3. A new stamp every month to add to your Stamp Collection for scripture memorization!

*Boxes ship on the 28th of each month and shipping is FREE!

Our Thoughts:

I have been very impressed with our box.  It shows each step in making the craft and also starts each craft time with scripture.  There are questions to chat about while the craft is being made to help deepen the lessons.

We kicked off our box with week 1.  We read verses and chatted about having compassion for the hungry.  The craft we made was a bread napkin!  It is encouraged to make bread and give the bread and bread napkin to a friend in need.  The kids both enjoyed making this and we loved our conversations.

They turned out so cute! I’ve been so impressed with the crafts and lessons that I am already considering these for future gifts.  These crafts and lessons made me think of VBS and how simple talks about Jesus can create a foundation for their lifetime.

Discount Code:

Ready to give Kids Faith Krate a try?  Head on over and create a subscription based on your family’s needs or sign up for a one time box.  Use code campinabox for $10 off the June Camp Rate!
