Girl-a-Tude Box May 2019 "Make a Splash" Review
Included in our box was a note for my four-year-old daughter from G-Girl that described our theme of "Make a Splash." These notes are always so cute and I love how Girl-a-Tude encourages your girl to shine or in this case to 'make a splash' by trying something new or by spreading their joy to others like a splash.
"Make a Splash" T-shirt
The t-shirts always come wrapped up separately, which is definitely a fun touch! She was so excited when she heard this month's theme and proceeded to jump up and down when she saw her shirt (see the blurry photo below). I really love this great blue color and she certainly loved the design!
This is a size Youth Small (6-8) and she usually wears a 6x so the shirts are a bit big on her, but they are soft and comfortable and the quality of the shirts we have received so far have all been nice!
Sticky Mermaid Tails - Buy 72 for $11.99
These mermaid tails are similar to the sticky hands you used to get from the grocery store toy machines, although since these are a bit thicker, they didn't stick quite as well. She still had a lot of fun playing with hers (while it lasted) and she promptly gave one to her little brother which of course, melted my mommy heart. I love that they included two!
Make a Mermaid Stickers - Buy 24 for $6.99
My daughter loves sticker dolls and items like these so she was super excited to have these mermaids to personalize with their own sticker tails and faces. This was another cute and fun item to go with our theme and while she did give one to her brother, she quickly decided he would be okay if she went ahead and completed his mermaid since it had been days and he hadn't done his yet. (Don't worry, he didn't even notice!) I love little activities like this for stashing in the diaper bag or my purse, so I might have to purchase some more of these anyway!
Inflatable Glow-in-the-Dark Pool Noodle - Buy 6 for $16.49
I really thought this was a beach ball at first until I unwrapped it and rolled it out! My daughter claims that this is her favorite item in the box, hence the reason she is hugging it here. She was so excited for her pool noodle and I admit it is a pretty fun item for a kid to receive. I actually had no idea that it was a glow-in-the-dark noodle until I looked it up just now, but I went and confirmed that the white stripes do indeed light up in the dark! She already can't wait to use it in the pool this summer, so I can't wait to see how excited she is when she finds out about this!
Personalized "Make a Splash" Puzzle
I LOVE when this box sends personalized items! It definitely sets them apart and this month's puzzle is such a great idea. It came in this cute paper bag and they included a little photo of what the finished puzzle would look like, which was definitely helpful! The pieces were super thin with a soft wood like backing and they were mostly sturdy.
We started out working on it together, but it was a difficult puzzle, as they warned us in the note, so I ended up completing the majority by myself so that I could get this photo of the finished puzzle. Some of the pieces were really tricky and seemed like they fit in multiple places, which is where the photo example came in handy! While she didn't sit still for it this time, I love that we can save this for another day when she is ready and we can even frame it and hang it up since it has her name on it.
Verdict: This month's Girl-a-Tude box was so great! I love the "make a splash" theme with the mermaid-inspired items and I know my daughter really enjoyed everything she received! The personalized puzzle was really unique and while a lot of the items may not have had a high retail value, they all worked together and served the purpose of matching the theme while also exciting my daughter. Plus that glow-in-the-dark pool noodle is also pretty awesome! The retail value of the known items is only about $3.66, but that doesn't include the personalized puzzle or the t-shirt, which I definitely consider the two main items. At $23.51 ($17.99 + $5.52 shipping) for this box, I think the value is there, especially when you think about the positive message they are sending!
