First Impressions
Little Feminist always includes a similar welcome sheet introducing this month's contents.
On the back of the welcome page is this month’s activity, which is “Sing a Song.”
Ronan enjoys music so much, in fact, anything he watches on tv has to have songs in it or he immediately gets bored. We sing A LOT in this house, and this song is just another addition to my musical arsenal. Sometimes he will hum along or try to sing with me, and he loved this song which is sung to the tune of "You are my Sunshine."
What's Inside This Box
May We Have Enough To Share by Richard Van Camp – Retail value $10.95
This is an excellent book to teach gratitude. Everything this book mentions it hopes to have enough of is not monetary or consumer goods. We hope every day that we can teach our children what matters most in this world, and this book does an excellent job of pointing out the things we cannot live without and emphasizes sharing them with others. I hope this holiday season we all have enough to share with the ones we love.
We Are Little Feminists Families by Archaa Shrivastav – Retail value $8.00
This book takes a look into so many different types of families; it is an excellent find to illustrate to our kids that no two families are alike! I enjoyed reading this to Ronan and seeing all the photos with happy, smiling faces. It is an easy read with each page rhyming with the next. Ro loved seeing all the babies and kids in each picture, especially the babies.
Discussion Questions
Little Feminist Book Club included discussion cards for each book this month. Laughter and sharing are two fun discussion topics, especially with the holidays quickly approaching and family coming into town. Ronan just turned 2 this fall, and sometimes he has a hard time sharing his favorite toys with others, but he definitely doesn't have an issue sharing his laughter. He is not stingy with hugs, kisses, or cuddles, and he also loves to share his food/feed his mom and his dog, Murray. When I asked Ro what made him laugh he pointed at Murray, and when I asked him if he would share some of his Goldfish with Murray, he happily handed a fistful to the dog. Baby steps, am I right?
Verdict
Little Feminist Book Club sent two great books this month. Although I missed the beautifully illustrated pages I am used to receiving from this subscription, I think Ronan enjoyed looking at all the babies in the photos, which made this month a little more exciting for him. He loved flipping the pages pointing and nearly shouting "baby! baby! baby!" The two books featured this month add up to $18.95, which is much cheaper than the actual subscription. Little Feminist is not a "more bang for your buck" kind of subscription, but the service is usually well worth the cost for me for their thoughtful curation.
After shipping, this subscription adds up to $25.90 a month; if you're someone who doesn't mind paying a price for an excellent curation and content, then this subscription may be worth it to you. The subscription holds a value that doesn't monetarily meet its cost, but I appreciate what they're doing.
