I am getting later and later with my Bluum reviews and while this one is also late it’s actually a lot earlier than our 32 month old boxthat we received last month. I love getting subscription boxes and while a few people may disagree about getting them, which their main reason being that they like to know what they’re getting, I love the surprises. If you’re new to the subscription world and have no idea what a Bluum subscription box is all about let me explain it to you. My regular readers already know so this is for the ones brand new to my site. Bluum is a monthly subscription box for both mom and babies from pregnancy all the way to age 5. Each month you receive a box of surprise goodies catered to your little one based on their age. Subscription costs $29/monthly but there are 3 other subscription plans, and the longer you subscribe the cheaper it becomes. You can get a 3 month subscription at $25/month, 6 months at $23/month and 12 months at $21/month all which needs to be paid upfront. You can take a look at some of our past Bluum boxes.
I will be 33 months in just 2 days so I was super excited to see what I got in my box. I like to think of these boxes as monthly birthday presents just for me. When I opened my box I saw a few things that I knew that I would like. Can you guess what they were? Book! Yes I was getting books. I was truly excited.
So lets get into what I got this month!
Folksy Foresters Bear by Manhattan Toy – $20.00

The total for my Bluum box this month was $41.57 which was a lot more compared to our last month’s box. This month I was really surprised that Bluum included so many books. I just love to read and you can find me “reading” a book sitting in my chair on a daily basis. The LunaBars weren’t really a hit since mommy isn’t a fan of protein bars. I enjoy stuffed animals but may pass the bear along. I’m just happy that I got books.
