Looking for at-home activities with a difference? Junior Explorers combines online adventures with cool kits that take kids on a learning journey about wildlife and the environment
All parents are on the same hunt: how do we find new activities that will keep the kids entertained – and stimulate their minds? Junior Explorers is a unique hands-on, home enrichment program that makes learning fun. By blending cool kits designed to encourage problem-solving with educational online adventures, kids can discover the mysteries of planet Earth in an engaging, immersive way.
If you’ve ever tried a subscription box for kids, you’ll know the excitement that comes with the arrival of a new package filled with surprises and new activities to try. Junior Explorers has taken this experience to a whole new level: designed for children aged five to 12, online missions and a fun, hands-on kit combine to teach kids about important social issues, wildlife and the environment. The first of its kind, this cool children’s subscription box will bust boredom – and encourage curious kids to learn more about the world around them.
What do the kids get? It all kicks off with a starter trunk packed with a Junior Explorers water tumbler, field guide and a map to track missions. Decorate and personalise the trunk with stickers, and they’ll have a special space to stash mission kits and gear that will come with each new box.
Every month, a new adventure awaits! Each kit will focus on a different ecosystem: from the Amazon, to the Serengeti, to the Arctic. Along with puzzles and fun facts about the planet, it will arrive at your doorstep packed with cool collectibles: wristbands, badges, figurines, stickers and temporary tattoos the kids will love.
What really sets Junior Explorers apart from other subscription boxes is its digital component (and we all know kids dig that)! Each kit will come with a secret code to unlock an online mission. To launch the adventure, your child picks an avatar that strikes their fancy, moves on to the ‘clubhouse’ and collects a mission. Now it’s time to gear up and get started!
Your little explorer will journey through the world map (joined by explorer pals, Kia and Kyle), select different biomes and learn about the different animals that live in that part of the world. With each new mission, the adventures and story lines become more in-depth, and the games more challenging.
In Mission Serengeti, for example, Junior Explorers are faced with a mystery: field biologist Liloe has been tracking a pride of lions, which has run out of food – where has their prey gone? Packed with interactive elements, from navigating the journey to photographing the beasts encountered along the way, Junior Explorers must learn about lions and their prey, playing games of skill and unlocking clues that will save the pride and restore balance to the Serengeti plains.
Upon completion of the game, print a certificate to celebrate the achievement. Mission accomplished!
