Shopping with My Mini Maker
Choosing a plan length
The subscription runs on monthly, three-month or six-month plans, and longer commitments cost less per month. A monthly plan suits anyone unsure whether the kits will hold their child's interest. The longer options make more sense once you know your child enjoys this kind of activity and you want the lower rate.
Matching kits to your child's age
The range is split by type rather than age alone. Activity kits are aimed at three to seven year olds, sensory kits suit three and up, and project kits are for seven to nine year olds. Younger children will need close supervision because some kits contain small pieces, and the brand says they may not suit toddlers under 36 months.
Things to check before you order
Everything for the crafts is included, but the sensory activity needs a tray, which is not in the box, and scissors are not supplied either. Child-safe scissors are sold separately. Some customer comments mention small plastic figures and bags of rice or beans that tear when opened, so it is worth knowing that before you start.
Gifting and changing your mind
Gift subscriptions are available for activity and sensory kits. You can skip a month or cancel at any time from your account. Returns must be requested within 14 days of receiving an item, and the item must be unused and in its original packaging. Perishable, personalised and sale items cannot be returned.
