Disclosure: I was provided with samples in order to facilitate this review. All opinions are my own.
Both of our kids have been scouts since the first year they were eligible. k started as a Daisy in Girl Scouts and is now a Cadette and n started as a Tiger and is now an AOL. Therefore, they were both excited to have the opportunity to check out SCOUTbox, a monthly subscription box for scouts, curated by scouts!
SCOUTbox sent us two of their previous boxes to review.
The first one was called “Tame the Wild”, which contained:
- First Aid Kit-Right Response
- Water Purification Drops-PURINIZE
- Trail Markers-VSSL
- Edible Plant Guide-National Book Network
- White Fandana-SCOUTbox
I was most excited about the Right Response First Aid Kit. With the recent earthquakes in Southern California, there has been a lot of renewed talk about the importance of being prepared in an emergency. It is a good idea to have an emergency kit in different places in your home as well as in your car(s). This kit is nice and lightweight for hiking and traveling. This particular brand can be sold by scouts as a fundraiser, which sounds like a great idea to me.
The second SCOUTbox was called “Communication”. It included:
- Self Reliance Outfitters-All Weather Notebook
- Nite Ize-Inka Key Chain Pen
- Waterford Press-“Signaling for Rescue” Waterproof Folding Guide
- UCO AIR Headlamp
I like how the notebook and pen are fun and useful. The notebook is waterproof, and contains helpful information such as knots, tarp-configuration and animal tracks. The pen can write upside down, in extreme temperatures, and at any altitude!
n really liked the headlamp. We own other headlamps, but this one is nicely padded to make it comfortable. It is rechargeable, its brightness can be adjusted, and it can change to red night vision mode for signaling and communicating. We will be sure to bring this on our next camping trip!
I was impressed with the variety of items that we received in each SCOUTbox. Each one contained products that would appeal to both kids and adults. SCOUTbox offers monthly subscription of varying lengths, as well as a unique selection of products designed for camping, hiking, etc. SCOUTbox would make a thoughtful and useful gift for any scout, as well as anyone who enjoys spending time outdoors!

I like the BioLite – Charge 10 Portable Power Bank.
I like the folding map compass, my Girl Scout troop is going camping in 2 weeks, I have been trying to encourage the girls to pack more items like this. So many of them only know how to use GPS or Google Maps, navigation is a skill too many are losing.
BioLite – Charge 10 Portable Power Bank looks great to use love to have one to use.
