KiwiCo is the most inexpensive of the three subscription boxes and provides a great variety of developmentally appropriate toys. I prefer KiwiCo crates for kids ages 3 and up and frequently use the FREE resources and activities listed on their website. Unlike MontiKids and Lovevery, you cannot see exactly what items you will receive in each Kiwi crate. Out of the three boxes there are less items in each KiwiCo Panda Crate than in the other two subscription boxes. However, for the number and quality of items both Lovevery and KiwiCo’s Panda Crate are almost identical in price - that is the amount of money saved through the subscription vs if you were to purchase the items in each box separately.
MontiKids is the most expensive of the three subscription boxes and its items are montessori toys, not just montessori based or inspired. When comparing the three, it is easy to see how the lovevery items are based on Montessori toys found in the MontiKids box. If you are looking for a more modestly priced box of Montessori toys Lovevery is a great option.
