The Halloween toucanBox: A Spook-tacular Treat That’s Better Than Sweets

Halloween is just around the corner, and what better way to get the kids excited than with Halloween toucanBox? Forget the sweets this year, because these delightful boxes are packed with creative and educational treats that will keep your little ones engaged for hours. Trust us; you won’t be disappointed!

Now, let’s dive into the spectacular features of these Halloween gems!

Building the Glowing Ghost Lantern: A Whimsical Will-o’-the-Wisp

First on the agenda was the Glowing Ghost Lantern, a part of the toucanBox Subscription that captured our hearts immediately. Inside the box was a treasure trove of crafty goodies, enough to summon your very own ghostly lantern that—you guessed it—glows in the dark!

What’s Included?

Paper Lantern: The base of your ghastly creation.
Crepe Paper Strips: To give your ghost a spectral flair.
PVA Glue, Ribbon, Paint Brush: Your basic crafting essentials.
Felt Faces and Velcro Dots: These allow you to change the facial expressions of your lantern.
Light and Sticky Tabs: To bring your lantern to life, or should we say, “afterlife.”
Easy-to-follow Instructions: So, you’re not left hauntingly confused.

The kids had an absolute blast assembling this. The lantern was so easy to build that they almost didn’t need our help, thanks to the straightforward instructions.

And once it was complete, they could switch its face from a grinning ghoul to a shocked ghost. It now takes pride of place in their bedroom, and they’re already planning to make more crafts to decorate the Halloween party table.

Experimenting with the Wacky Scientist’s Ghastly Lab: A Cauldron of Creativity

Just when we thought things couldn’t get more exciting, we delved into the Wacky Scientist’s Lab box. Imagine a lab but make it haunted. Perfect for little ones who love a scientific twist to their Halloween adventures.

What’s Included?

Lab and Specimen Stickers: Your haunted headquarters.
Inner and Outer Tray: For all your scientific endeavours.
Test Tube, Bubble Bottle, Flask Stand: It’s experiment time.
Acetic Acid, Baking Soda, Green Colouring: The ingredients for your fizz-tastic fun.
Scientist’s Scoop, Pipette, Mixing Stick: Your tools for mad science!

The children couldn’t contain their excitement as they assembled the lab and started their experiments. Between the fizzing concoctions and mystery monsters trapped in haunted beakers, this box was a hit!

And let’s not forget the sticker sheet and Halloween-themed magazine full of colouring pages, puzzles, and other crafty ideas that come with every toucanBox.
