We invite you to take a look at: www.kidsbookbox.co.uk
NOW LAUNCHED with FREE Welcome Packs for UK subscribers
Covid-19 has had a phenomenal effect worldwide and children have found its impact particularly hard to understand. Children need a source of hope, inspiration and comfort in these times of the start of ‘returning to normal.’
Our new Junior Travelling Reader website is launching at just the right time, allowing children to explore the country of Britain while remaining safe AND giving them something exciting to do over the holidays.
This service brings a reading experience to a new level: British-set books and products to match either the setting or the book themes and delivered directly to their door. This is the perfect way for kids to stay home and keep safe, explore new places remotely, and increase their mental and physical wellbeing which, in these strange times, is essential.
The benefits of encouraging children to read have long been known:
* Reading develops language skills and competency in children
* Books help develop children’s imaginations
* Books make kids think in different ways, expanding their knowledge and thought processes
* Books are a brilliant escape from every day cares
* Many parents believe that reading is a better form of entertainment than screens (but don’t know how to encourage it)!
* Escaping into a book can improve children’s positive physical and mental health
Particularly, our subscription boxes offer the following benefits:
* We hand-pick the best fiction books so that parents know their child is reading appropriate material
* We source the very best gift products to accompany the book (they either relate to the book or the area in which the book is set!) in a fitting way thereby enhancing children’s reading experiences
* Our box experience engages children, keeping them occupied in a worthwhile pursuit
* Children can ‘travel’ to new and exciting areas around the British Isles, thus expanding their knowledge of places, history, culture, and customs
* Children can feel connected to the world at large without leaving home
* Children will receive a personalised postcard and be part of a group of other young readers, helping them to feel part of a larger community
Our welcome packs include a wall map and stickers for children to chart their ‘reading journeys’ thus enabling them to build a better understanding of their world.
Managing Director, Michelle Price, says, “In a world where everything is uncertain, children need to feel connected. Books can connect them to themselves, to others, to their imaginations, and reading can alleviate stress in a way like no other. Stories have that magical ability to transport you to another time and place and we’ve made it that much easier for parents to encourage their children to experience the joys of reading.”
Notes to editors:
The Travelling Reader is a British book subscription company delivering monthly British-based books to readers around the world. www.thetravellingreader.com
We have modelled our Junior Travelling Reader book boxes on our Original Travelling Reader boxes: we choose a different British junior (ages 9-12) fiction book based in an area of Britain, include the book and a place-related treat and gift in our boxes alongside travel information, a personalised postcard, exclusive bookmark and, at times, a letter from the book’s author. We also include 5 photos within the book pages to give children an even greater appreciation of the setting of the book without them ever having to leave home.
Boxes are available as a one-off gift box, previous boxes are always available in our shop, or readers can subscribe on a monthly basis. Prices start at £19.99.
We are proud to support British businesses especially at this present time.
