Such A Brilliant Idea!

“Bringing new and fresh ideas into the home and conversation pieces. Our grandson loves to get the mail and he is overjoyed that something had his name on it. He just turned 4 and is unable to read it himself but we enjoyed reading to him and he asked a lot of questions. The reading was long enough for engagement and short enough for busy working parents or grandparents. Excellent quality and easy to comprehend content”

- Deanna S.

Once enrolled, your Captain Mail plan will start and you will receive your first packet within 10 business days in the United States and may take longer for our international shipping.

Captain Mail educational packets are perfect for ages 5+. We suggest that you do it with your child during the younger years. That way they continue with the tradition on their own in the future.

In reality every kid is different and the age range is just a recommendation and we leave it to the parents' discretion to decide if their kids are ready for our packets.

Younger children will need support with reading the content. However, we suggest you do it with your child at the younger stages so that you can build a special bond and instill a lifetime love of learning. As your child’s reading skills improve, he or she will be excited to read Captain Mail packets alone.

Throughout our development process, we have collaborated closely with a panel of parents and educators who have direct experience working with children in our target age range. We also test our packets directly with children and incorporate their feedback to ensure maximum fun and engagement. All of our written content is provided by our award-winning partner Encyclopedia Britannica Kids.

You can contact us via email at: help@captainmailkids.com We look forward to hearing your feedback and suggestions.

Captain Mail plans can be canceled anytime through your online account or by emailing our support team at help@captainmailkids.com
