Sally Macaluso, a special education preschool teacher and educational blogger at Tenderhearted Teacher, shares that her oldest child received a Kiwico subscription as a gift from a family member.

“We were able to keep many of the open-ended wooden toys, and his 1-year-old sister is currently using them… Our oldest has a newfound interest in them again as he shows her how to use them now. So, I am happy to say they are well-made and long-lasting.”
