Pollinators

Ages 7+

Pollinators make the world go round. We wouldn’t “bee” here without them. Our Pollinators Maker Box is designed to teach makers all about pollinators and why they're essential for our survival through hands-on projects. Makers will not only learn about pollinator anatomy through printmaking and paper mache, but they'll also help pollinators thrive by creating their very own wood bee hotel, pollinator-friendly wildflower seed bombs, and a sweet concrete pollinator watering station. This box is the perfect addition to your next insect study.

About Our Maker Boxes

Each Maker Box includes easy-to-read guides with photo how-tos, guiding questions, extension, and adaptation suggestions. Paired with high-quality materials and supplies to complete five projects, you’ve got a box of maker gold. Up to 15 hours of creative play in each kit. C&a Maker Boxes connect real-world concepts to creative exploration. Build, make & play while developing new understandings of science, art and math concepts. 

Age suggestions are for independent exploration. Younger kiddos may need adult assistance. You know your kiddo best. Choose accordingly. All boxes contain small parts and are not suitable for children under 3. Make at your own risk. 

Remember to go slow, have fun, it’s all about the process.

We will donate one box for every five sold!
