Cub & Bear's Monthly Sensory Play Subscription Box ~ July ~ Beautiful Butterflies

Flutter into Summer with Cub & Bear’s Beautiful Butterflies Sensory Play Subscription Box!

This month, we’re celebrating one of nature’s most magical transformations — the journey from caterpillar to butterfly — and the fluttering, colourful wings that bring summer meadows to life.

With vibrant shades, soft textures, and gentle scents, this box invites little ones to explore the beauty of butterflies through hands-on, nature-inspired play.

As flowers bloom and butterflies take flight, your little explorer can enjoy sensory-rich, imaginative play that sparks curiosity, storytelling, and a deeper connection with the natural world.

What’s Inside:

Yellow Door Let’s Roll Roller (butterfly and meadow or butterfly & flowers)
Receive one of two beautifully tactile rollers, each designed to inspire creativity and storytelling. Roll out meadow scenes or the stages of a butterfly’s transformation — from egg to caterpillar to chrysalis to butterfly — and bring nature’s magic to life.

Rainbow Eco Smooshy Sand (Green)
A generous pouch of soft, mouldable green Smooshy Sand — perfect for creating grassy meadows, leafy hideaways, or the perfect landing spot for fluttering wings.

Curiosity Corner Sensory Dough in Ruby Rose Red (Blackberry Scented)
A rich, berry-red dough scented with sweet blackberry — inviting little hands to squash, roll, and sculpt petals, butterflies, berries, or summer blooms.

Yellow Door Butterfly Sensory Stone
One of eight beautifully crafted butterfly sensory stones — perfect for small-world play and exploration. Their solid, tactile feel encourages mark-making and open-ended discovery.

TickiT Wooden Treasures (6x Flowers in Three Shades of Orange)
These warm-toned wooden flowers are perfect for creating meadows, decorating butterfly wings, or inspiring imaginative nature play. Ideal for sorting, stacking, or using as props in storytelling.
