***Mail Order service now accepting orders again!***

Our Mail Order service has now reopened to the public (see here for details of why we were closed).

We have streamlined the range of pre-packed boxes that we offer, as we still face limitations on some of the stock we previously had greater supply of, but we still have a wonderful variety of materials, and our boxes can be tailored for certain age groups or activities.

Shop information

  • Orders can be picked up at our Woolloongabba warehouse or shipped directly to you.

  • Shipping costs are calculated during the checkout process and our delivery services are currently provided by Sendle.

  • For local pickup, please ensure that you have received confirmation that your order is ready prior to coming to the warehouse. Typical lead times are 2 to 3 weeks.

  • Use the Categories list to search via Box Type, Learning Area or Year Level, or use the 'Search' bar to enter key words.

  • Once you have identified the box you wish to order, be sure to select  both the size and intended age options on the product page.  This ensures we pack things that are appropriate for the people who will be using the materials (ie, no sharp or swallowing hazards for the 6 and under intended age group).

  • We have discontinued the 'Maxi Pack' product options.  If you wish to order enough materials for 100-120 participants, you should now order 3 x large boxes.

  • By using the Educator's Shop you agree to the Website Terms and Conditions and the Privacy Policy.  Please ensure you have read and are comfortable with both of these documents prior to using the Shop.

  • The payment service provider is Stripe, which accepts most commonly used cards in Australia.  You will be directed to the Stripe website to finalise the payment during the checkout process.

  • If you are shopping for a school or a child care centre, you can pay after we've sent your purchases to you.  Choose the 'Pay upon Invoice' option during checkout and we'll contact you to confirm your order afterwards.
