What is a Bandit Box?
Bandit Box 1: Starter Explorer
Your epic monthly story-driven adventure starts here...
Like all great stories, it’s best to start at the beginning with Bandit Box 1: Starter Explorer. Our first box follows the story of Bandit the Crafty Cat through prehistoric times in order to find the missing items from the Workshop. Once Bandit finds a treasure chest, he sends it out to all the Bandit Box Adventurers every month to make sure everyone around the world can find the fun! Starter Explorer is jam-packed with theme-related art, craft and STEM-related activities and toys for children aged 4 to 12, and comes with 30 days access to our Online Workshop and 4 weekly Community Chats.
The Starter Explorer box contains 4 themed main-make items along with a whole lot of smaller extras, bilingual instruction manual, themed stickers, colouring-in book, stationery items, post cards, general knowledge scratch card, and more. The Starter Explorer box also comes with a starter kit that contains once-off items our Adventurers will need across all 12 boxes. These include a custom reusable sticker book, Bandit Box smock as well as our specialised reversable Messy Mat (that doubles up as a social media background), and other exciting surprises to help you find the fun in Bandit’s adventures through space and time!
