Even more magical than I expected!

I bought The Enchanted Slumber for my 9 year old daughter for Christmas. She loves mystery books and solving puzzles. I chose to have the mystery mailed weekly which made it SO fun. She checked the mailbox daily and dove right into the challenges. Not only is the process educational and exciting, the tangible clues (charms, keys, script letters) were so professional and gave the mystery a real-life feel. The book in the end was a total surprise and a perfect "keepsake" for all the work she had done. Worth every penny!!

Amazing!

My 7 year old LOVED this. All the materials were super high quality - from the crinkled old paper to the hand written calligraphy to the real metal necklaces. I was constantly amazed by the creativity that went into creating the physical materials that were sent. We loved figuring out the puzzles together - they were hard! I will say there is NO way my very smart child could have solved the codes on her own without parent assistance. I would buy this again in a heartbeat for her!

Impressive, fun, satisfying journey for my kid (and neighborhood)

Great experience for my kid, and really any kid just learning to read and learning how mail works. Had no idea a fancy memento would arrive at the end of it, and the opportunity to send a note to one of the protagonists was a stroke of genius. Real value for the money.

Mythical adventure

My daughter was absolutely immersed in the story. She eagerly check the mailbox every day next Omloop. Also loved detail the artifacts and the clues which inspired hours of conversation.
