Looking for the perfect preschool subscription box for your 3, 4, or 5-year-old son or daughter? Here are the 10 best preschool subscription boxes for your little preschooler.
Young children will love having a monthly theme delivered in a fun way! These are educational activities that arrive in a new box and make a great gift! They are a varied age range and are a great option for little minds.
If you want to improve literacy skills and try some new preschool curriculum, these monthly preschool activities are excellent! Perfect for busy moms and early childhood educators as well. Every pre-k box is full of creative projects, craft activities, and detailed instructions. The kids will love these monthly activities!
There is something so fun about preschoolers.
They are these cute, little people who are trying so hard to learn about everything, and do things for themselves.
They say things cute. They smile and laugh freely. They are just such a joy (well, amid terrible fours and terrible three tantrums, of course).
As they are little sponges seeking to learn, it’s a great time to seize on the opportunity to teach them.
However, I do not think kids need to go to a formal preschool, in part because you, as their parent, can teach them everything they need to know, and they’ll benefit so much from being with you (Note: this is not a judgment or condemnation to working parents or those who choose to send their kids to a regular preschool).
I love subscription boxes for kids, especially educational subscription boxes.
I had written another post featuring subscription boxes for toddlers, but decided it was time to hunt out the best subscription boxes for preschoolers!
I may homeschool my kids, but I am not all that crafty, and preschool crafts intimidate me, so I love when I can get a preschool subscription box loaded with all the supplies, materials, instructions, and teaching aids to help me help my kids.
I have tried out several of these monthly preschool subscription boxes on this list, and selected boxes that covered a variety of topics, and not solely ones which focus on the alphabet, phonics, and identifying the A-B-C’s.
While those are great, it’s also super fun to just explore all parts of our wonderful world with preschoolers, to get them excited about everything.

Preschool Subscription Boxes
The Preschool Box
The Preschool Box is an educational monthly subscription box that teaches your preschooler ages 3-6 basic reading and math skills, preparing them for elementary school.
They focus on ways to teach your child beginning phonics skills such as learning to identify, write, and sound out the letters of the alphabet and work up to sounding out and writing words.
Every box has a set of focus skills with hands-on activities, crafts, and worksheets, parent instruction guide, book, stickers, flashcards and other games.
We received The Preschool Box, and it’s really is a great box!
They provided all the beans to count with, numbered cups, flashcards, fuzzy things, instructions, folders, everything you’d need for the four weeks of learning a new letter each week.
My daughter has since called it her school box and loves working on those same activities again and again.
At $42.95/month with free shipping! They also offer 2-kid, 3-kid, and 4-kid subscription options for those who have multiple preschoolers at home!
Plus, a portion of all their sales goes towards buying school supplies and other necessities for children at the Rafiki Orphanage in Uganda, Africa.
Order The Preschool Box and start teaching your little ones!
Little Passports: Early Explorers
This monthly educational box for toddlers called Little Passports: Early Explorers is a great way to introduce geography to children.
Designed for kids ages 3-5, each package has a unique theme (like Art, Music or Food) and teaches your child about the world.
For example, the Oceans package contains an educational fishing game that teaches children about different sea creatures and contains a salt water science experiment and a booklet containing fun facts about each of the world’s oceans.
The first box sends a fun orange suitcase, a wall-sized world map, a 20-page activity booklet, a luggage tag, stickers, and photo.
Each subsequent box contains a 20-page activity booklet, fun souvenirs, trading cards, letters and photos, stickers and luggage tags, fun activities, educational toys, and learning games.
This preschool subscription box is a great way to inform your kid about themes like landmarks, music, animals, oceans, natural wonders, space, world discoveries, dinosaurs, science, celebrations, habitats, transportation, insects, and sports.
It’s only $27.95/month, but just $23.95/month when you do a year-long subscription with FREE shipping!

Music Adventure Box
Take your preschooler on a fun musical adventure every month with a Music Adventure Box!
I actually personally know the creator of this box, from my college days, and she sent me a box to check out with my 4-year-old, and she adored it, especially the paper dolls and the songs we sang. You can see my full Music Adventure Box review on Youtube.
Every Music Adventure Box is different and exciting, with a different theme every month. Each preschool box contains a music game to play together with your preschoolers, movement ideas and historical facts about composers and their pieces, musical instruments, and even a new children’s storybook that you can sing the words of with your children.
Sometimes you will receive stuffed animals, puppets, or other fun items in your box to play with.
In addition to the supplies in the box, your subscription comes with a subscription to the Mastery Music Academy website, an exclusive online member site where Miss Emilie teaches children’s songs and games through video.
You will also receive a digital file of the songs in the box so you can play them over and over!
Subscriptions are $25/month for digital access, $50/month for both digital and physical access, and $75 for digital and physical plus a once-a-week live class. All options include free shipping.

KidArtLit – Preschool Art Subscription Box
The KidArtLit subscription box is where art meets storytime and helps you build a family culture of creativity and reading.
Their aim is to help raise creative and curious kids, build a curated home library, help you connect as a family, make reading and art part of your family’s routine and give experiences rather than “stuff.”
Each month you receive a handpicked boutique-quality picture book with a related open-ended art project to go along with it for your family, a “ready-set-go pack”, and a mini-magazine.
All are geared toward children ages 3-8.
The art projects might focus on painting, printmaking, textiles or sculpture.
The art projects are not designed to be Pinterest perfect, but your own unique creations (though some structure is provided).
They also give you a generous amount of art supplies, enough for you to do each project twice which is pretty awesome, especially if you have multiple kids! They even give you the option to increase the amount of extra supplies they send you each month.
Their boxes are as low as $39.95/month for their Spark boxes (only 1 unique art kit) and $54.95/month for their Deluxe boxes (2 unique art kits), plus shipping and taxes. They also ship worldwide!

Each box contains materials you need to make 2 to 3 crafts with your preschooler. Some of their past boxes include making spiders with googly eyes, creating a Gingerbread house, and making cool face masks.
I love that they try to coordinate each box with holidays. I think this is a craft subscription box kids and their parents will enjoy doing together. They have great reviews, too!
It costs $34.99/month plus shipping, or less if you order a longer subscription (down to $30/month for a year subscription).

Bookroo
If you love the idea of children’s book subscription boxes to build up your child’s library, then you’ll love Bookroo!
Bookroo sends you 2-3 age-appropriate individually wrapped books each month. Not only does your child get mail, but he gets to unwrap presents inside of the box!
It’s such a great, and affordable way to discover new books with your child each month, and encourages parent-child bonding as you sit and read-aloud to your child.
We have received several boxes from Bookroo and we’ve loved all the books they’ve sent us!
They sell board books, pictures books, and chapter books (and if you have multiple children, they will switch off which months you get what type of book so everyone’s happy!).
As 3-year-old preschoolers, if you still want to get them board books, each board book subscription sends you 3 books a month. If you prefer the picture book subscription, each box comes with 2 hardcover picture books.
Either subscription is only $21.95/month plus a flat $4.99 shipping and handling charge. If you do a year-long subscription, it’s just $17.95/month plus shipping.
MEL Kids
MEL Kids provides you monthly science projects that are hands-on STEM projects, with AR lessons, and more.
More for the older preschooler (4-5+) these monthly science and chemistry kits are an awesome, interactive way to teach your kids science! The boxes aimed at this age group are the “Coding” boxes (which are currently out of stock at the moment, so check back).
We received a MEL Kids kit and it was super fun and interesting for my preschooler.
It’s $29.90/month ($20.90/month with year subscription) with free USA shipping to get a new project coming every month. You can also get up to three of the same box delivered every month too. Use code FAGAN25 for 25% off your first month!
