I am so excited to be partnering with one of my favourite companies, Oak Meadow, to bring you this wonderful holiday giveaway!

Are you in the holiday spirit yet my friend? If not, get ready. After this post you are bound to have a Holly Jolly smile on your face …

It’s time for my BIG 3 DAYS of GIVEAWAY!!!!!

Join us in December as we #giveaway some of the hottest toys this year on How Wee Learn!

Oak Meadow and I are working together today to bring you our very first wonderful giveaway. All you need to do to enter is leave a comment below. Easy Peasy!! Winners will be announced on Sunday December 12th. And be sure to come back tomorrow for our next big giveaway!

Today is the very first of the three giveaways … and it is a ….

(Cheesy drumroll please … for those of you who didn’t read the title of this post anyways …)

A Grade 5 Craft Kit!

Oak Meadow curates these amazing craft kits using their immense knowledge on child development. This craft kit is ideal for children who love to do handwork – or who might not have had the opportunity to try out handwork just yet.

This craft kit is valued at $160!

Inside this craft kit you will find …

  • Artist grade colored pencils

These pencil crayons are perfect for your young artist. Beautiful colours and a soft line make them perfect for drawing and shading.

  • Embroidery needles (1 pkg, size 1-5)

Your child can try his or her hand at some embroidery and sewing using these embroidery needles.

  • 36 skeins of embroidery thread

Loads of embroidery thread perfect for beginning embroiderers (I don’t think that is an actual word). This thread is also perfect for making friendship bracelets.

  • Quill pens (2)

Calligraphy anyone? Let your child try his or her hand at this amazing lost art!

  • Candle wax mix (1 lb of premium soy wax flakes)

Do you know what makes a wonderful homemade Christmas gift? Candles! Your child can make his or her very own candles using this candle wax.

  • Candle wicking (3 feet)

Do you know what makes a wonderful homemade Christmas gift? Candles with WICKS! Ha!

  • Indian seed bead loom kit (includes loom, beads, thread, needles)

If your child has never used a bead loom, this will be a game changer. I used to spend hours and hours creating amazing bead loom bracelets. I even learned how to do letters so I could spell names. So much learning involved with this one!

  • Assorted round paintbrush set

Wonderful quality paintbrushes so your little artist can really hone his or her skills.

  • Drawing pad (9×12, 40 sheets)

Specialty paper perfect for drawing, shading, and sketching.

  • Watercolour pad (15 sheets

If you have never used watercolour paint on actual watercolour paper, you are in for a treat!

  • India ink (2 oz)

Ink to go along with your child’s brand new quill pens for calligraphy.

  • Compass and Protractor Set

These mathematician tools are perfect for a budding artist as well. The best tools to build in lots of STEM to your homeschool.

  • Heavy Duty Scissors

So your big kid can really get to cutting! Cardboard, sticks, whatever those creative minds think up.

  • Assorted Tissue Paper

Tissue paper is definitely a crafting staple in our home. This pack will build up your supply!

There you have it my friend! A big, huge, craft kit perfect for older children.
