Then, the books are packaged in a box that isn’t just a box but another way to add creativity and fun with everything inside being 100% recyclable and reusable including packing peanuts that can be used to add to the fun! Check out the creativity that can unfold during the unpacking of one of Blue Manatee Boxes “Zoom Box”!

My boys were thrilled when their Blue Manatee Box arrived! My youngest two boys LOVE books and anything that “goes” so the Zoom Box was perfect for them! They have absolutely loved the colorful pages and engaging stories that share about trains, fire trucks, and even garbage trucks! The fun definitely didn’t stop at just the great books, they were thrilled with the included purple crayon that relates to the book “Harold and the Purple Crayon”. They box also includes packing peanuts that can be stuck to the box with a little dab of water and a sponge too. This box really is packed with creativity. The included board books had stories my boys loved to hear and it really encouraged reading and spending time together. Of course, reading also inspired lots of questions and learning, too! The add-on book for my older boys was great too and we could absolutely relate to the story told in “Too Many Toys”!

Blue Manatee Boxes Review

Blue Manatee Boxes offers a special themed box that features the award-winning Baby Unplugged series of books written by pediatrician Dr. John Hutton. The series was created to combat the growing number of “educational” video series created for young children that aim to make kids smarter without any engaging interaction and exploration of the world around them. Each book in the series explores children’s favorite parts of the world from blankets, to balls, to the beach and more.

Visit Blue Manatee Boxes to pick out your own fun and engaging gift that gives learning, creativity and fun all in one! Select a 3 book box for $30, 6 book box or $55, or 9 books for $80 and then pick your theme and any add-on’s and your box full of fun can be on its way.
