Motherhood Survival Box is a quarterly subscription box for mothers that sends handpicked items specially designed to support them and give them a much-needed break. They offer two subscriptions: the "Original" box which comes with 4-6 handpicked items for $49.95 + free shipping, or the "Mini" mailer which contains 1-3 items taken from the "Original" box for $15.00 + free shipping.
FYI: The Mini Mailer for this quarter sold out and is not currently available on the Motherhood Survival site, but will be available for next quarter.
This review is of the Mini Mailer for $15 + free shipping.

Mini Motherhood Survival Mailer Spring 2020 Review
1 of 2
We received this card that tells us about our items this month along with a little note.

Home & Harvest Rose Gold Straws
Our first item is a set of rose gold straws that arrived in their own little pouch along with a brush to clean them with. These are nice straws that are eco-friendly and just a bit larger than traditional straws meaning they will be great for smoothies or protein shakes! While I like the rose gold color and feel that this is a useful item, it didn't really scream spring or feel like an item that "built me up" as a mom. It looks like these are unavailable right now so I was unable to confirm their retail value.

Seeds of Intention Cards by May You Know Joy - Retail Value $12.88
This set of cards is about the size of a regular deck of cards but this set of 42 cards features short intentions for you to apply in your daily life. These range from forgiving yourself to expressing yourself to more simplistic ideas such as "today I go play." I'd love to be that mom who gets up early and has some time to myself before the kids wake up to take a moment and actually set some intentions for myself, but alas, I enjoy my sleep in the mornings, so these quick cards could prove useful for trying to focus my energy for the day with limited time!
Verdict: I used to really enjoy the mini boxes from Motherhood Survival and I love the idea of these little mailers, but this month's items were a bit lackluster for me. The straws are nice and will definitely get used and I like the idea behind the intention cards, but they didn't really seem to go together and with only two items, I'd have loved for them to feel a bit more cohesive. The total retail value of this mailer is supposed to be over $25 which means the straws would have to cost around $12, and that seems a bit high for a set of 2 straws, so I'm not quite sure the value is really there this quarter.
To Wrap Up:
