May is officially one of our favorite months here at SkillSprouts OT β€” and this month's box might just be our most fun yet! We've been buzzing with excitement getting everything ready, and we are so thrilled to share that the May Growth Guide is officially live! 🌱

This month we are diving headfirst into the wonderful, wiggly, wing-flapping world of bugs and nature. Whether your Sprout is a curious explorer, a budding scientist, or just loves getting their hands into something sensory and fun β€” there is something in this box for every child.

Happy May, Sprout Families!

We put so much love into every activity this month. We hope your Sprout explores, creates, discovers, and grows β€” and that you have just as much fun doing it together. From our family to yours, thank you for being part of the SkillSprouts OT community.
