General
A Womple is a yeti-like creature from Antarctica. Frozen for millennia and thawed only recently when an ice shelf broke away from the continent, Womples have an unquenchable thirst for exploration and adventure. They've missed out on thousands of years of fun and and now they're ready to travel and see the world - and they're looking for like-minded explorers to share their experiences with!
Coddiwomple (verb) - to travel in a purposeful manner towards an unknown destination.
We think that pretty much sums us up! At Womple Studios, we believe in the value of wandering and exploration. No one knows where they'll end up, but the best way to get anywhere worthwhile is to treasure the experience and enjoy the journey.

WompleBox Subscriptions
WompleBox is a subscription box that takes kids to a new country each month and teaches them about culture, history, science, geography, folklore, cooking, and so much more. Every kit comes with (1) an illustrated adventure chapter book, (2) two hands-on STEM projects, (3) a fold-out map with activities, recipes, and fun facts, (4) a souvenir keychain to remember the experience, and (5) a 'pen pal pack' with themed stickers, postcard, letterhead, and envelope.
Each month is a new adventure to a unique place in the world!
Subscriptions start at $24.99 per month. Check out our pricing details HERE. Shipping is free on all subscriptions and taxes are automatically calculated at checkout.
There's no "rule" for what's appropriate for your child. All kids are different, and you know yours better than anyone.
That said, WompleBox is designed especially for, and kid-tested by, children ages 6 to 11. For kids on the younger side, we encourage parents to read the books and do the projects & activities with their kids. For kids on the older side, we've written the materials and designed the projects to be fun and engaging without the need for parental supervision.
One WompleBox should do the trick. Unless, of course, your kids aren't super great at sharing...
Every WompleBox is sibling-friendly and includes two STEAM projects for sharing (hopefully) between two kids. Also, our books are exciting and enjoyable alone, together, in a classroom, and over and over again.
Womple is your child’s adventurous tour guide, leading them through the wonders of a new country every month. Womple visits some well-trodden destinations (such as Australia and France) and some that are a little more off the beaten path (like Rapa Nui and Nicaragua). No matter the destination, you and your child will learn something new. We guarantee it.
So far, Womple has had his passport stamped in:
- Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Ethiopia, France, Greece, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Japan, Mexico, Mongolia, Morocco, New Zealand, Nicaragua, the Philippines, Rapa Nui, Russia, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Tanzania and Scotland.
Where do you think Womple should travel next?
We never know where Womple will be off to next (and neither will you), and we’ve discovered it’s much more exciting that way! If you're planning a homeschool curriculum and need some advance notice in order to plan ahead, just reach out at help@womplestudios.com.
WompleBox subscriptions automatically renew so you don't have to keep buying the same thing over and over again. Your subscription ends, whenever you want, when you cancel it. Like Netflix!
Example 1: If you buy a monthly subscription to WompleBox, your child will receive a new WompleBox every month and you will be charged the price of one WompleBox every month until you cancel.
Example 2: If you buy a 3-month subscription, your child will keep getting WompleBox every month for three months and you will be charged the price of a 3-month subscription every three months until you cancel.
You can cancel anytime, and we'll always give you a heads up before your subscription is renewed.
You're charged the day you make your purchase and on a recurring basis on the 15th of the month on which your subscription term ends.
Example: If you purchase a 3-month subscription on June 12, you'll be charged for the 3-month term that same day, and then you will be charged for the next 3-month term three months later, on September 15. If you decide to continue your subscription, you will be charged again for the next 3-month term on December 15, and so on.
You can see upcoming orders and manage your WompleBox subscription by logging into your account or by clicking here: Customer Portal.
Great! If you purchased a WompleBox subscription, it will automatically renew at the end of each term.
For example, if you purchased a 6-month subscription, it will automatically renew for another 6 months at the end of the first 6-month term. If you purchased a 3-month subscription, it will automatically renew for another 3 months at the end of the first 3-month term.
