Citrus Lane [infant] Box Review: October


We loved this box as much as the toddler box this month.  Everything was so cute and, most importantly, age relevant!  Tiny man is just starting to grasp objects and show interest in feeling different textures, so we’ve already gotten a lot of use out of this box.  I rate this box a 9/10.


The contents included a donut rattle by North American Bear Co. (plus coupon code), a cage bell by Hohner Kids, a soft book by Tiny Love, and two Calendula Baby Care samples by Weleda.  



So, the rattle.  So cute!  It’s a gender neutral, and has a soft texture with a soft rattle noise to go along with it.  My almost-three month old loves to feel it, listen to it shake, and attempt to hold on to it.  I like it because the noise isn’t too loud or startling, it could easily be taken with us while traveling and be entertaining without annoying everyone around us.  And, did I mention it’s super cute?!



The cage bell is a fun one too.  It pairs nicely with the maracas that came in my two-year old’s box, and now my children can start a family band.  Tiny man hasn’t taken to holding this one so much as he has watching me or big brother make noise with it for him to watch.  It’s not something I’d take on an airplane, but it’s fun for home.





We sat down together to look at the Where Do I Live Soft Book this morning.  It’s a nice little book full of simple colors, animals, textures and stuff to grab at (or gnaw on if the mood strikes).  Tiny man loves the different textures and the crinkly pages.  The first page has felt “grass” and he played with it for a few minutes (which is basically hours in infant time).  It’s also sturdy; it’s soft and made of cloth but it’s not floppy like other soft books we have which makes page turning so much easier on little, tiny hands.  



The Weleda samples included baby shampoo/wash and a diaper cream.  Not too much to say about them as we have not yet tried them out, but it’s a company I’m already familiar with and I’ve enjoyed their products in the past.  In general, samples aren’t my favorite items to receive, especially one-time-use samples, but I suppose it never hurts to toss them into the diaper bag for emergencies.  Plus, they came with a 20% coupon code.
