Frequently Asked Questions

What’s inside a Sprouts & Stories Box?

Each Sprouts & Stories box is designed around a fun and meaningful theme! Inside, you’ll find a carefully selected storybook (we love supporting local authors!) along with six engaging activities based on our SPROUT framework. We provide most of the materials you’ll need—except for recycled or perishable items, of course!

Do kids need adult supervision?

Older children can complete most activities independently with little to no supervision. However, some boxes contain small parts that younger kids might need help with. That said, we highly encourage parents to join in! We’ve taken care of all the prep work, so you can simply enjoy quality bonding time with your child.

Do we need our own art supplies?

To stay eco-friendly, we don’t include basic stationery like scissors, tape, or colored pencils—things most households already have. But if any special materials are required for an activity, we’ll make sure to include them in the box!

Why do you only launch every quarter?

We’d love to release boxes more often! But each Sprouts & Stories box takes a lot of time and love to create. From brainstorming and prototyping to sourcing the best materials and designing the activity book from scratch—it’s a big process! Since we’re a small team, we focus on quality over quantity. Each launch is limited in quantity, and we take preorders so we know exactly how many to produce.

Can I order a box as a birthday gift? How long does delivery take? 

Absolutely! A Sprouts & Stories box makes a wonderful birthday gift. 

• For in-stock boxes, we deliver within 3-5 working days via registered courier.

• For preorders, delivery depends on the launch date. Our boxes launch at the start of each month, so if you’ve placed a preorder, you can expect it to arrive by the first week of that month.

If you’d like gift wrapping, just let us know at checkout, and we’ll make it extra special for you!
