Who doesn’t love ice cream? The hot weather may have passed, but this month’s lovely box of stationery goodies from Mila & Pheebs has some tasty treats to remind us of summer!
The brightly decorated box is totally letterbox friendly! Inside there’s a menu telling you the theme plus the list of goodies.
Open up the menu and you get the lovely newsletter! This is always fun to read, plenty of jokes, trivia, and even a few handy dates for your diary.
So many stickers! Mila & Pheebs always do a great selection, and this month we have a sheet of shiny alphabet letters, plus a bunch of cute foam ice creams.
There are always a couple of craft kits, and the first one was making this lovely little ice cream keychain.
More creativity with this Sand Art Kit.
This is a rare slightly messy craft, but it’s a lot of fun to do. The ice cream blank is self adhesive, and the different coloured sand is sprinkled on to the sticky parts to decorate. 
The extra sand is also fun to play with!
Mila & Pheebs always include a couple of blank greeting cards. The one on top has an embossed pattern of cherries on it.
I love these cards because I’m a big believer in children making their own greeting cards. Why buy something from a shop when your child (or you!) can create something beautiful and personal?
You can never have too many colouring pencils, and this is a nice sparkly set. They were also very useful for the next things in the box.
Colouring and puzzle sheets.
Little C loves doing these! Not only are they fun, but word puzzles such as wordsearches are a great (and sneaky) educational tool.
Every month Mila & Pheebs runs a creative competition. This month you can design your own ice cream sundae, and there are even some tiny sprinkles to add!
As it turned out Little C adored these tiny bottles so much she decided to keep them in her treasure box rather than use them. However the colouring pencils came in very useful here!
Finally, every month you get a different tiny eraser. These gorgeous erasers are far too nice to use, so we are building up a wonderful decorative collection on our bookshelves. This month, we decided that this mini ice cream might be appreciated elsewhere…
Little C’s Sylvanian Families have been lucky enough to have this yummy treat! It’s the perfect size for sharing.

What a delicious box of goodies. Mila and Pheebs boxes are a great treat for any child. They have creativity, activity, and lovely things to make and keep. A box can be useful in all kinds of situations, from taking on holiday to keeping children amused at a wedding or event. They would also make a very sophisticated party bag!
The activities are usually very low on the mess scale, this month’s sand art kit was definitely an exception, and it was tremendous fun.
And children can always clean up after themselves!
