…and parents keep telling us the same thing
Hear how families use My ZOO Box to make animal learning fun, meaningful, and easy at home.
"Zebras are my son's FAVORITE! We gifted the extra Zebra because he had one. He helped put stripes on the Zebra, loved the Pumpkin Fritters and helped make them, and the Zebra tail is a hit! THANK YOU!"
"We just got our first zoo box and my kiddos loved learning about pandas! I did too!! So excited to get more!!"
"We use the zoo boxes as part of homeschooling. After noticing the mail was on our stoop, she says: 'Oooooo, a new zoo box!' It made my heart happy."
"We got Pippin the Panda, our son lovingly named his stuffy panda 'Peggy' and had such a nice time doing his ink painting, but by far his favorite part was learning about their anatomy."
"My daughter has kept all of the animal posters in a notebook. The stuffed animals are still well-played with. I will continue to recommend Zoo Boxes – an excellent program."
"The boys got their very first zoo box and they absolutely love it. Can't wait to try out the recipes and the stem project, and the little craft was easy enough for my 5-year-old to do almost all by himself."

FAQ
What is Zoologist Club?
Zoologist Club is a monthly animal-science adventure designed for curious kids ages 5–12. Each box explores a new animal through real zoology, hands-on STEM projects, and conservation missions. Kids learn how animals survive, adapt, and thrive while developing critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and a deeper appreciation for wildlife and the natural world.
What ages is Zoologist Club best for?
Zoologist Club is designed for kids 5–12. Younger kids enjoy the guided, hands-on projects and big visual science pieces, while older kids dig deeper into the readings, diagrams, and conservation challenges at their own level.
What concepts does Zoologist Club cover?
Every adventure weaves together zoology, anatomy, ecosystems, geography, and conservation. Kids study an animal's body, behaviors, and habitat, explore food webs and environmental challenges, and connect their learning to real-world wildlife issues through kid-friendly activities and missions.
Will my child be able to do these projects independently?
Most activities are created so kids can work independently or with light support, depending on age. Younger zoologists may need help reading instructions or setting up materials, while older kids typically take the lead on the projects and investigations. Each box is meant to grow confidence, curiosity, and problem-solving.
Do animals repeat?
Zoologist Club follows a three-year rotation featuring a wide mix of animals from different habitats and continents. During that three-year cycle, kids won't receive the same animal twice.
