WHAT YOU NEED

The Culture Box contains everything a family

might need for a wild day out: onesies and mask

components to help the kids get into character;

a monster guide and binoculars for wild thing

hunting; the original story book and audio book;

and finally, an Instax camera to help them capture

the memories of the day.
