panda-pals-jan-letter

This letter to parents was included, thanking us for subscribing. It details the contents for the package and talks a little bit about what to expect in future packages.

panda-pals-jan-intro

The folder containing the goodies folds out to a map of Sock Island, with an introduction to some of the characters that live there (the Panda Pals).

panda-pals-jan-story

This month's theme is Shapes, which my seven-year-old is way too old for, but the younger kids would really enjoy. This is the story that was included. I thought the "story" would be more like a little book, but it's actually just this two-page comic. My son loves comics, though, and this will be good reading experience anyway.

panda-pals-jan-activities

This is the activity sheet that was included. The reverse has a big drawing space. It kind of reminds me of the activity placemats they give kids in restaurants.

panda-pals-jan-doll-stickers

One the left is a cut-out paper doll, which my son would never be into, but some kids would for sure. On the right are some stickers, which will be a big hit!

panda-pals-jan-socks

Now on to the main event: the socks! This is the first pair that were included, depicting one of the Panda Pals. Notice that there's a snap that allows the two socks to be snapped together. I've never seen that before! Ingenious!

panda-pals-jan-socks-2

This is a different angle of the socks that I am including so you can see that the ears of the panda actually stick out! So cute!

panda-pals-jan-yellow-socks

This is the second pair of socks they sent us this month, which also can be snapped together. Both pairs of socks are super soft!

Verdict: I think it's pretty clear that Panda Pals had me at the snap! I love that snap! I think this subcription is adorable and would make an especially good present for a child you care about. $15 is a lot for two pairs of socks, but I think the included activities and the specialness of the whole package make it worth it. It really turns a boring present, or the act of buying something boring, into something awesome for kids.
