Space Scouts – A Fun, Educational Subscription Club

Our kids love learning about space! They love all of it – astronauts, stars, planets, etc. Of course, I always love when they’re learning new things and having fun at the same time!

Space Scouts offers a fun, educational subscription club (that is also affordable) that encourages kids to learn in exciting, hands-on ways through fun activities and exciting challenges. Each month children get to explore a new place in space! Space Scouts introduces children to space exploration, space science, and astronomy!
For our review we received two months of the Space Scouts Subscription club packages. The Introductory package includes:

• Introduction to the Space Scouts Program
• Space Scouts Lunchbox
• Space Scouts Solar System Poster
• Space Scouts Activity Sheet
• Space Scouts Sticker Scramble
• Space Scouts Souvenir Toy
• Space Scouts Constellation Card Startup Kit (cover & ring)
• Introduction to Space Scouts Constellation Cards

Additional Months Include:

• Space Scouts Exploration Plan
• Space Scouts Magnet
• Space Scouts Sticker
• Space Scouts Activity Sheet
• Space Scouts Sticker Scramble
• Space Scouts Souvenir Toy
• Space Scouts Constellation Card
• Space Scouts Constellation Activity Sheet

We were so excited to get it all out and explore! I love that the Introductory Package includes the Space Scouts Lunchbox to keep all of our activities as well as the Constellation Card Startup Kit with cover and ring. It really helps to bring it all together. We added our card from the 2nd month onto the ring, and it’s a great reference!
Space Scouts is recommended for ages 6+, and our 6 year old daughter and 8 year old son have really been getting a lot out of it. Our 4 year old, though, particularly loves learning about space and astronauts and would not be left out! Although many of the activities are definitely not in his age range, there is still a lot he could do and that his older siblings could help him with as well! In fact, we enjoyed it as a whole family!

The older two kids did more of the activities that were harder for the little guy, and they had FUN doing them! More than just having fun, though, they are also learning. We were discussing planets, stars, space ships, astronauts, and more! There is an amazing advantage to hands-on learning. Kids cannot play with something or create something without learning more about it!

We are thrilled with the Space Scouts Educational Subscription Club. The kids are having fun, we’re having fun, and we’re all learning new things! What I appreciate is that Space Scouts not only offers this great service, but they also know the importance of engaging parents in STEM discussions with their children. Through their social media outlets and electronic communication, they offer parents great tips and topics to engage in kid-friendly discussions about space exploration and astronomy with themes like “Get your family talking about the night sky!” and “You can be an astronaut too!”
