All About the Boxes
How old should my child be to enjoy Alltruists?
We design our materials for children between 6-12 years old. Each activity is created for parents and kids to enjoy together. For younger children, activities can be simplified and enjoyed quickly. For older kids, our activities can be more detailed and complex, depending on family preference.
What comes in a box?
We love that each of our boxes are different. Please visit our store for more information on what is included in each Alltruists box. Here you can explore a more detailed view of the individual activities, learning materials, volunteer project and other elements of each Alltruists box as well as our nonprofit partner’s information and each project’s impact.
Are the activities web-based?
Our boxes are designed as offline experiences. We include an optional “Do More” website to visit for children and families, which provides additional resources for taking further action to support box causes.
