Our Story

Made from scratch.
Literally.

These aren't boxes pulled from a warehouse shelf. With A Scratch experiences are designed, created, assembled, and packed with care—turning simple materials into something made for little imaginations.

Every felt piece is hand-stitched. Every sensory dough is mixed in small batches. Every box is inspected before it ships. Because kids notice when something was made with love.

Monthly Scratch Box

Everything you want to know.

What's Inside?

Each Monthly Scratch Box includes 5–8 handcrafted items: a handmade felt toy or stuffie, sensory dough and accessories, a paint-your-own plaster piece, pretend-play pieces, and a seasonal creative activity. Contents rotate every month—no two boxes are the same.

How It Works

Subscribe and receive your first Scratch Box within 7–10 business days. Subsequent boxes ship on the 15th of each month. You can pause, skip, or cancel anytime from your account dashboard.

Ages

Scratch Boxes are designed for children ages 3–8. Each box is reviewed for age-appropriateness and items are clearly labeled with safety guidance. We recommend adult supervision for children under 3.

Shipping

First box ships within 7–10 business days. Monthly boxes ship on the 15th of each month. Shipping rates are calculated at checkout. Expedited options available.

Subscription Details

Billed monthly. No long-term commitment. Pause, skip, or cancel anytime from your account. Your first box is charged immediately; subsequent boxes are charged on the 1st of each month.

Safety + Care

All materials are non-toxic and ASTM-certified. Sensory dough is wheat-free and made with food-safe colorants. Felt items are machine-washable on gentle cycle. Plaster pieces are sealed and non-porous.

One box. So many ways to play.

Customer Love

Little hands. Big fans.

"My son was absolutely obsessed. Such a sweet little kit — the plaster piece is sturdy and the paint colors are perfect. We did this at his birthday party and every kid loved it."

"This lion is unbelievably well made. It arrived beautifully packaged and my daughter hasn't let it go since. You can tell every stitch was done with care."

"Ordered 20 of these for a space-themed birthday party. Every single one was perfect. The kids were so engaged — way better than any generic favor we've ever done."

"The quality is unlike anything I've seen in this price range. The felt work is gorgeous and my daughter carries it everywhere. Handmade with such attention to detail."
