Never let your schooling interrupt your education.

Giveaway: Writing Caddy from Playful Learning

//  by 

This giveaway has ended. Check back on Saturday, December 4 for the winner!

Welcome to Simple Living Media’s Home for the Holidays! We’ve got 25 giveaways across the entire network this week to give you plenty of chances to win a great gift, just in time for the holidays.

Today I’m giving away a Writing Caddy from Playful Learning.

This sweet caddy is practical–holding all your child’s art and writing supplies in one place. But it is also beautiful, inspiring your little one to sit down and create more often.

Valued at $128, this caddy is the perfect present for the budding author or artist in your life.

Learn more about this inspiring gift and how to win it.

When I first pulled the writing caddy out of its delivery box, I honestly let out a little squeal of delight. It is well-crafted and lovely, and my mind could already envision my six-year-old excitedly opening it on Christmas morning.

The caddy measures 10 inches square by 10 inches wide, and comes with several movable dividers that you can alter to fit your child’s writing needs. Organizational enthusiasts like myself will love that feature! I dislike toys and supplies that have multiple small parts, which often end up all over the table in a mess. But this writing station keeps everything together.

The sturdy handle makes it easy to carry upstairs and back down again without spilling–my son does much of his creating upstairs during rest time, so I know our caddy will be trekked up and down often.

Check out all the writing goodness that comes ready to stock your writing caddy (pictured above):

  • 20 Color Grip Markers
  • 12 Metallic Colored EcoPencils
  • 20 Junior Grip Triangular Colored Pencils
  • Grip Set (pencil, eraser and pencil sharpener)
  • 742 Alphabet Stickers
  • 16 Colored Crayon Rocks
  • 8 Blank Cards and Envelopes
  • Alphabet Stamps
  • Multi-Colored Ink Pad
  • Alphabet Chart by Handwriting Without Tears

These are high-quality supplies, not the cheap version that will break within a week of use.

The Playful Learning website was created by educator Mariah Bruehl, a mother of two young girls who wanted to translate her professional experience as a teacher to her time at home as a parent. Playful Learning owns a brick and mortar store in Sag Harbor, New York and also makes some of her favorite items available for online purchase.

Do your children love kits assembled in cute cases or bags? If so, they’ll adore the Playful Learning botanist’s kit, sewing kit, and tool kit. You can even purchase an empty caddy for your own projects or order a complete writing center for your home.

The writing caddy from Playful Learning is an heirloom piece–one you and your child will enjoy for years. Made from the highest quality materials, it would make a wonderful gift for the little writer in your life.

One Simple Homeschool reader will win your own Writing Caddy from Playful Learning!

    My 9 year old son LOVES to write & draw. He will get up early in the morning to do his writing for school. It is so fun to see how he uses descriptive words and how his writing is truly budding!

  6. Leigh

    My daughter loves to “write” and even though she has just started knowing her letters, she “writes” pages and pages of stories. I love it.

  9. Rachel

    My daughter is definitely a budding artist. She loves to create pictures and projects. Give her markers, crayons, glue and scissors and she’ll create her own masterpiece.

  12. Deanna

    What a neat design! My four year old daughter is the artist in residence at our house. This caddy would be the perfect addition for her “studio” as she calls it.

  14. Candace

    My daughter just started a sketchbook (gift from Grandma) that she loves to create crayon self-portraits in. This sweet caddy would be a brilliant creative addition!

  15. Terrie Smith

    I’d love to have this little art caddy for when the grandchildren come to visit! They are all buddy artists!

  16. Sara Sophia

    My middle son is a FABULOUS artist and his creations amaze me.
    He has little stories that go along with everything he draws….and I normally try to build off of things in our homeschool curriculum for art projects.

    Whether its knights and dragons or dinosaurs in a modern styled home 😉

    I love encouraging him to be a creator and I love his originality…
    this would be a STELLAR Christmas gift <3

    Thank you for making me aware of such a great set!

    I have several budding artists in my family. My oldest two (twins) are in college – both taking art classes. One of my younger girls (almost 11) is can draw very detailed pictures . . . I imagine her going far with it as she uses it for God’s glory. Would so love to win for her! 🙂

    My son enjoys coloring a lot with crayons & markers…too young to create anything but scribbles at the moment.

  20. Julie Gonsalves

    I have a 5-year-old who IS an artist- just ask her! Almost every day she is busy making personal artwork and writing notes for people. She would love the art supplies and I would love to see them organized!

  23. tavia

    I have TWO budding artists – and a teeny living space that needs to be organized all the time so this would be wonderful. My girls (4 and 6) love drawing pictures of our family and making cards for our extended family who don’t live close. Love it !
