It has puzzles, jokes, facts, & coloring items that are a small taste of what's to come with the mailings every 2 weeks from one of the animals.

It's Day 24 - the last of our box item reveals!!!
Did we save the best for last? We think so because we worked hard on this one, and we're very proud of it. It's the introductory activity booklet, with a colorful spread for each animal.

Are you ready for Day 23?
Two days ago, we revealed the stickers specifically for the “Battle of the Butts” animals, but there are sooooo many other stickers in the boxes. It’s a totally random assortment of glitter and shine and encouraging animals!

Day 22 is finally here! And it's a silly one - brown air dry clay for making poop shapes!
It's an activity included in the initial box to experiment with various shapes to learn why wombats poop cubes. It's silly fun but also educational!🤪

Are you ready for the Day 18 reveal?
Probably not because today's delightful item is ... doody!
But it's the friendly poop emoji kind & this time it's taking the form of sticky notes. Using these rump-tastic reminders will surely help you remember things!

The Day 17 reveal is related to yesterday's color-your-own stuffie.
We wanted to make sure everyone had a way to decorate theirs, so we're including these vibrant washable markers in each box. And we tested it to make you can wash them out and design again.

The Day 16 reveal is ... a color your own stuffed animal!
We're team STEAM in our quest to mix art and science, so we looked for box items with flair. On the surface these stuffies have no color, so the kids must turn them into vibrant creatures!

Day 15 reveal - it's a stackable crayon!
Since the activities have both STEM *and* art components (aka STEAM 😁), we wanted to make sure BUTTS IN A BOX recipients had various colorful tools to use for their projects. And we thought these were super cool!

Ready for Day 14?
It might not be as exciting as some of the other booty-rific items, but a blank notebook is very powerful!
A budding writer can start crafting stories.
A budding artist can start creating masterpieces.
A budding scientist can start coming up with theories.

What do we have for Day 13?
Yesterday, we revealed that one of the items is a set of colorful paints to decorate the wooden snake. Well, today's reveal is a wooden poop emoji to use the extra paint!
Will you paint the poopie in a creative way or stick with the usual caca color?🤔

It’s time for the Day 12 reveal . . .
It's a set of paints! The Day 10 reveal was a wooden snake for the Sonoran coralsnake, and today’s item helps kids make the wooden snake bright and colorful!

Ready for the Day 11 reveal?
Since sea cucumbers do so many weird things with their butts, we decided to go outside the box (like literally outside!) to encourage kids to grow their very own cucumbers. Of course, these seeds are for the land variety not the sea kind. 😆 #kidlit

What could the item be for Day 10?
It's a wooden snake for the Sonoran coralsnake that's also a fidget toy. You can make it do a kind of sidewinding dance that is super soothing when your brain is racing.

It’s time for the Day 8 reveal!
For the beaded lacewing we picked a bead kit to match the “beads” on them.
And it fits the STEM theme because you’re supposed to form words in binary code on the necklace!

We've been so busy today working on <secret> for the boxes that we almost forgot to do the Day 7 reveal of What's in the Box?!? 😱
This is for the silver-spotted skipper caterpillar, which flings its poop incredible distances.

Ready for the Day 6 reveal of What's in the Box?!?
It's for the bombardier beetle, and it's a fire extinguisher squirt gun!
Since the bombardier beetle shoots burning chemicals out of its booty, you need to cool things down.

Day 5 reveal of What's in the Box?!?
It's a fortune teller fish! While herring use toots to talk, this fish sends messages by curling and twisting.
Turns out there's cool science behind how they work, which the herring will share with BUTTS IN A BOX kids. So buy now! https://www.buttsinabox.com/
A light green background with the words "What's in the Box?!?" and then a picture of a silver cookie cutter shaped like a turtle.
Or maybe there's science involved there! You'll have to wait until the activity book and letter arrive from the Fitzroy River Turtle!
Meanwhile, in the initial box, we include a tasty recipe for sugar cookies, so you and your kid(s) can make a bale* of turtles!
*Bale is the collective noun for 🐢🐢🐢
It's Day 4 of the silly surprises reveal for BUTTS IN A BOX!
It's a turtle cookie cutter for the Fitzroy River Turtle. This one might seem a little weird because what does a cookie cutter have to do with turtles that breathe through their butts?!?
Uh, nothing?😆

A white puzzle cube with one side red, one side green, and one side yellow. The BUTTS IN A BOX logo is in the background.
Day 3 - Wombats poop cubes, so a puzzle cube to represent their square scat.🟫💩
Stay tuned as we count down each of the silly surprises in the initial box!
A red-rust colored whoopee cushion, with the black outline of a cartoon manatee, and the wordsL Pudgy Pooter I swim using farts.
Day 2 - Manatees swim using farts, so a whoopee cushion to represent their fart power. I spoiled this a while ago because I was so excited about them!💨😆
A copy of BATTLE OF THE BUTTS in the foreground, with the BUTTS IN A BOX logo in the background.
Day 1 - A signed and personalized copy of "Battle of the Butts" since that's what inspired this whole thing!🏆📖📦
We've been so busy with the donation boxes for Reading Partners that we didn't get our Advent calendar to reveal "What's in the box?!?" up on Dec 1st, but that's okay because the first two items weren't really a surprise. So three reveals for today:
