One tree planted with each order
Step into the world of pharaohs, pyramids and hieroglyphs with a story-led Ancient Egypt activity box for kids aged 6-11. Every pack is built around an immersive story that introduces children to life along the Nile, then lets them explore it for themselves. Inside, they’ll find puzzles to solve, fun activities to try and pages to cut out and make, so what they read turns into something they can do, build and remember.
Delivered to your door, children can open the box and start straight away. That makes it a screen-free Ancient Egypt gift that works for birthdays, Christmas or any day you’d like to give a child a lasting gift. It’s designed to suit curious, creative kids from 6 to 11, whether they love stories, enjoy puzzles or need a gentle way into history.

Screens are the default for most kids’ free time, which is why a gift that gets them making and reading can stand out. This one works well for birthdays, Christmas, or “just because”, and a child can start it the day it arrives.
Kids love stories, and that's why this makes an outstanding gift for kids. Kids are curious, can follow a real story and love solving puzzles. Our Ancient Egypt activity pack suits kids who love adventure, a reluctant reader who needs a way in, and a younger or older sibling who joins in.
The pack works as a standalone Ancient Egypt unit or as part of a longer history programme for kids aged 6-11. It’s a good fit for homeschool families and for UK Key Stage 2 topic work. US families can find out whether ESA funds can be used, or whether we are already approved as a vendor for your charter school here.
