Here's what our Nature Mail community have to say about their experience:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"As a Primary Teacher, I appreciate the thoughtful care that has been taken to create meaningful connection to nature. From the lessons of mindfulness to seasonal themes, these activities are helping to shape my son's choices in life to be present and considerate. I’m forever grateful for the time it saves me to spend quality time whilst grounding us together in nature."
Nat ~ Mum of 3yr old Cali
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Watching my little ones hands explore their nature play experiences has been one of the most fulfilling parts of parenthood so far. Knowing that they are learning about nature, honouring the seasons of the world and also their own, and learning how to connect and care for animals, bugs, trees and everything in between is the best foundation for their lifelong learning I could have hoped for. "
Kat ~ Mum to 5yr old Olive
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Earth friendly, child centred and beautifully created activities that have left long lasting memories and joy in our hearts.Having the privilege for my kids (and myself) to take part in these authentically considered activities has truly been a highlight of their childhood."
Alex ~ Mum to 4yr old Lily

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Each month a new box is released with a nature inspired theme. Inside every box you'll find:
-
Four nature play activities with an instruction card and all the key resources you’ll need (sometimes you will need to go forage for some leaves, bark or dirt!)
-
One packet of Earth friendly, spray free seeds to plant in the garden
-
One children’s meditation script to support healthy nervous systems
Nature Mail is designed with children aged 3-9yrs in mind. In saying that, we firmly believe that every child can benefit from nature play. Children will engage in activities differently, depending on their stage of development and personality. Typically, children under 3yrs will not be ready to grasp some of the concepts included in Nature Mail (although they often surprise us), and are more susceptible to choking on small parts. For this reason we suggest 3yrs+, but you know your child best!
Every activity comes with a little card that explains the activity. Depending on the age of your child, generally activities require a little explanation and set-up and then children can lead themselves through an activity. Sometimes activities will require fine motor skills like tying a knot or cutting with scissors. It can be a beautiful opportunity for children to practice these skills themselves, but may at times need some support.
At our in person classes, there is a magical community element that just cannot be boxed up and posted to you! We start and finish in circle, and take the children on a guided journey from slow mindful activities through to busy and messy activities, before winding back down again.
Mostly, yes! Sometimes part of the activity will be to go and find something in nature like a pretty leaf. Those won’t be included; that would ruin the fun! You also might need something like scissors or a bit of tape. It’s not very Earth friendly to include a new pair of scissors every time they are required! So for common household items we will usually assume you can source these yourself.
The resources included for each activity consider families with multiple children. One box per family will be enough. Some activities have resources that will run out such as dried flowers for a craft activity. Other activities include a single item designed to last forever like a wooden puzzle or a handmade paintbrush. There will only be one of those included with the intention that families with multiple children will practice their sharing skills! It helps if you sign up under your children's names so we can see on your order it's for more than one child. Then we know to do what we can to make sure there's enough for you to complete the activities for all children.
How long is a piece of string? A lot of activities are surprisingly low resource and low mess. But I have seen children make an almighty mess out of very little. We recommend finding a space at home you are happy for mess to be made, and then letting your child take the activity wherever they’d like to! Uninterrupted, child lead play is so beneficial for their confidence and self-trust, it just might be worth the risk of a messy house!
Integrity is our number 1 value as a business, which means we can't guide children on how to love and care for Mother Nature without loving and caring for Her ourselves. All resources enclosed have been sourced with the health of the planet at the forefront. We make most of the box contents ourselves, or source locally wherever possible. We strive to be 100% plastic free in our resourcing (however this can at times be near impossible sadly!). All of our packaging is either compostable, recycled/recyclable or better yet, reusable! We use acid-free, soy-based inks for printing on recycled paper!
All activities are designed by The Wild Exchange Founder, Jaimie. With over a decade of experience as a psychotherapist and ecotherapist predominantly working with children, meeting particular social/emotional objectives through guided play-based activities is where she is most in her genius!
Sometimes Nature Mail will include dried flowers, herb based Earth paints, glues, clays, or small parts like gumnuts. If your child is in the habit of putting everything in their mouth, Nature Mail may not be quite right. All activities should always be supervised for young children.
You can subscribe and cancel immediately to receive a one off box. At the end of each month, any remaining boxes are added to the store as a one-off item. These are slightly more expensive than buying as a subscription and there's usually less than 3 or 4 boxes remaining (if any). When signing up on a monthly subscription with Nature Mail, you are entering into a subscription agreement which means you will be automatically charged every month unless you cancel or pause your subscription at least 24hrs prior to your renewal date.
On the 14th of every month, a new box with a new theme and four new activities will be released. Your first box will be the box for the month that you sign up. Occasionally the box of the month will sell out in which case pre-order for the following month’s box will open. If you sign up under pre-order, your box will be posted to you on the first business day after the 14th of the month.
After subscribing, your order will be dispatched on the following Monday or Thursday excluding public holidays. You should have it within 7-10 days of your billing date! We all remember the excitement of receiving mail as a kid, but with so many things online these days, our children rarely (if ever) get to experience that joy! Give the gift of joy-filled memories AND a month’s worth of fun and engaging nature play activities with a Nature Mail subscription.
