KiwiCo was built out of a belief in the importance of developing creative confidence. We believe that this confidence helps kids think big and act like creators and producers instead of just consumers. Kids with creative confidence don’t assume one "right way" to build with blocks, paint a picture, or solve a problem. Their unique way is the right way!
I had a deep appreciation for the creative, hands-on projects that encourage this kind of thinking, but as a parent, I often found that my best intentions fell short. It was tough to find the time to do the research and come up with a great idea, let alone gather all the materials.
KiwiCo was created to celebrate kids' natural creativity and curiosity, while helping parents who want to bring enriching experiences to their children. We want to make it fun, easy, and delightful for families to spend time building, exploring and creating together. Since its inception, the KiwiCo team has grown. We've added creative designers who dream up the projects, valued experts who review them, and a community of kid testers who keeps us on our toes and ensures the projects are fun and engaging.
We love working on creating new KiwiCo experiences, and we cherish the involvement that our kids have in bringing the product to life. We're excited about the opportunity to help provide these types of experiences for your family to share too.
Happy exploring!
Founder & CEO, Mother of 3 & the KiwiCo team!

My mission as teacher, as researcher, as professor has always been to help young, old, and in-betweens to see the world through the spectacles of science newly, to help children uncover the world they see through science, to help people find confidence and joy in explorations via science and so to escape the stifling dogma that is so often science as encountered in schools.

Children are naturally curious and creative, and we can support their creative journey by encouraging the free exploration of materials, asking open-ended questions about their discoveries, and exposing them to new ideas that feed their interests. When I facilitate a project with children, I focus on the process rather than the product because generally, this is what children are most passionate about. They care about how art materials interact with one another or making connections between a new discovery and prior knowledge. Kiwi Crate is exciting to me because it also embraces the goals of process-based art making while empowering grown-ups to be great facilitators.

Development Areas
Our projects have been designed to encourage children's healthy development and learning. Developmental appropriateness is important in ensuring that the activities are kid-led and driven, with grownup assistance - not the other way around. We've worked with our advisory board of developmental experts to outline the areas of development that our projects address for kids ages 4-8.
Low: With projects that are low on the messiness meter, you probably don&t even need to wash your hands. Examples: pencil drawings, cutting fabric shapes.
Medium: Be ready to wash your hands. If liquid is involved, we mark the project at least medium. Examples: stamping with paint, blowing bubbles.
High: Watch out for your workspace and/or clothing. Protect or be prepared. Examples: paper mache, some chemistry in action.
Prep Together: Get the project and your materials ready with a grownup.
Create Together: Work on the project with a grownup.
Explore Together: With what you&ve created, play and discover with a grownup or friend.
Children explore and learn about the world through creative exploration and imaginative play. Projects with this icon were developed to spark this creativity and imagination. The expression could be through art, music, dance, and imaginative play. Examples include painting with sponges and acting like an animal.
Discovering
Discovering activities pique kids& natural curiosity about the world and promote problem solving: they invent and test to learn. Projects with this icon include investigation and learning about science, nature, and mathematics. They encourage questions like why is the moon a circle tonight and a crescent another and recognizing the pattern of stripes on a bumble bee.
Moving - Gross
Encouraging physical development and health tees up ongoing fitness and well-being. Projects with this icon involve big or little motions. Gross motor skills control the large muscles and movement & like galloping like a horse and playing hopscotch.
Kids develop an appreciation of the world around them, as well as their role in their community. Through projects with the Exploring icon, kids learn about cultures, community, and diversity. These might include understanding what a policeman does, how children overseas celebrate different holidays, or who is in their extended family.
Communicating
Language development includes the ability to both understand and use language & by reading, listening, speaking, writing. The Communicating icon identifies projects that are focused on these literary skills. Examples include: recounting their vacation, following directions for a project, and reading traffic signs.
Developing self-awareness, expressing feelings, and respecting others build confidence and positive interactions and are important skills for kids. These projects focus on interactions with others. Examples would include taking turns playing a game and asking politely for help with a project.
Moving - Fine
Many tasks - from writing and eating to dressing and cutting - involve the fingers and hands. Projects with the Moving - Fine icon involve the little motions to encourage this development. Fine motor skills generally refer to these small movements of the hand which enable actions like twisting a cap and picking up pebbles.

毛孔粗大就用：新西兰Bee Kiwi碧卡维麦卢卡蜂蜜爽肤水
先自我介绍一下，本人皮肤为混油皮，鼻子两侧和鼻子毛孔粗大，在此基础上，偶尔也会化个淡妆，但是通常不会太持久就开始花妆。也用过猪油膏，当时效果会好一点，但是依然阻挡不了皮肤冒油，花妆。所以想从根本上解决这个问题，于是入了这款新西兰Bee Kiwi碧卡维麦卢卡蜂蜜爽肤水。之前都是用柔肤水的，快换季了，想换换护肤品，试试这款爽肤水。拿到手，我习惯性使劲摇了摇，很快就出现了细腻绵密，经久不衰的泡沫，因为以前看了一篇文章讲，水如果出现细腻绵密的泡沫就说明含有很丰富的营养物质。一打开就闻到好闻的蜂蜜花香味，让人心旷神怡，忍不住多闻了几次???。果然是添加了不少蜂蜜。说起蜂蜜，这里添加的是世界有名的麦卢卡蜂蜜哦，是蜜中极品。具有超强的抗氧化抗菌功能。在洗净的脸上拍打爽肤水，很容易被吸收，一点也不粗腻，我特意在鼻周毛孔粗大的地方多拍了些水，希望可以更快的缩小我的毛孔，不知道是不是心理作用，拍完了水之后，感觉脸的净了些，我想毛孔不是一天形成的，也不可能一天就缩小到看不见，坚持把这一瓶用完先。

网友印象：
春天里最想找到这样的一款水，清新、甜蜜，每一次使用都仿佛有春的气息迎面扑来。本来以为不会找到这样的一瓶水，但是踏破铁鞋无觅处，得来全不费工夫。闺蜜推荐给我BEE KIWI碧卡维麦卢卡蜂蜜爽肤水，有种一见倾心的感觉。
这款水看上去并不大，只有100毫升，能用一两个月。但是它的价格却超级亲民，买一箱都不会心疼呢。包装上都是英文的，它是一款来自新西兰的产品。
最吸引我的是它的香味，感觉自己打开了一个蜜罐哦！蜂蜜一般甜美的香味，让人沉浸其中，好像自己要变成一只小蜜蜂一样。
它的质地非常清爽，油皮的最爱，既补水，也吸走多余的油脂。它含有麦卢卡蜂蜜、玫瑰精油、维生素C等天然成分，让肌肤焕然一新，好像春风一样轻盈。
使用后，肌肤很细滑，补水的效果特别显著，水分测试仪都要爆表了。坚持使用，还可以进一步修复肌肤，击退黑色素，让肌肤自然美白，焕发迷人光彩。这款水一点都不闷痘，还可以调节肌肤水油平衡，真是油皮的最爱啊。
