How Your Fearless Girls Club Subscription Box Helps Build Resilience In Girls Aged 8 to 12

If you’re reading this, then you’re part of a growing community of parents who are trying to raise strong, confident girls, but knowing how to build resilience in tween girls in fun and engaging ways is harder than it sounds. That’s why we started running our after-school clubs and then quickly expanded into creating the Fearless Girls Club subscription box too. It’s a powerful, creative way to help build emotional resilience in girls aged 8 to 12 by letting them try, create, mess up and keep going.

What’s Inside Each Box?

Every month opens the door to a new world through our carefully selected box themes – from encouraging curiosity and daring in our Adventurers & Explorers box or discovering cool things girls and women are doing in Spies & Codebreakers, to trekking Into the Wild or uncovering what Health & Happiness really means. All while quietly building her resilience along the way.

• A 20-page jam-packed magazine created just for girls aged 8–12 full of stories, articles, puzzles, our award-winning Club Quest challenges, mindfulness activities and more

• Hands-on crafts and goodies, linked to our theme and rooted in science – real resilience building activities for girls

• Empowering postcards designed by us (one of our favourite things to do!) with inspiring artwork and uplifting messages that can be pinned up at home, giving your girl a boost of confidence and encouragement that stays in her eyeline

• A fun gift that reinforces the theme and makes her experience of the box more tangible

• Themed stationery as a front-of-mind reminder of what she’s learning

• Stickers – of course! Affirming, encouraging, funny, sometimes silly messages to decorate her world with positivity and power

• A postcard just for you (parent-only), with ideas for connection – because you’re part of the club and the adventure too!

  
  

The Hidden Layer (Just for the Parent)

This is where it gets even cleverer (if we do say so ourselves).

You (the adult) get a monthly email explaining the science behind it all – the theories of growth mindset, emotional regulation and confidence-building that go into the creation and curation of our boxes. There’s no random tat (we’re parents ourselves and we’re fed up of pointless plastic filling our houses), it’s all very deliberately designed, chosen and included.

The email and box postcard for parents are specifically designed to help you raise resilient daughters, without the overwhelm of conflicting advice and content. We’ve pared it all down into a box you can both love and enjoy.

What Resilience Looks Like Here

Resilience isn’t always big or dramatic. Sometimes it’s this:

• A craft goes wrong and she figures out a new way

• She reads a story in the magazine and whispers, “I feel like that too”

• She keeps going even when it doesn’t work first time

• She learns different ways to manage her big feelings from our magazine Power Boost techniques

• You start to notice that she’s growing more confident

  
  

Why People Love and Trust It

Kids love it because it feels like adventure, not work – but it’s building life-long skills that will set them up for success, however they define it.

Parents love it because it’s thoughtful and practical. We’ve done the hard work so you can bring distilled empowerment to your girls and know that everything they’re reading, trying, saying and practicing is building resilience, confidence and a strong sense of self and purpose.

Teachers and educational psychologists endorse it because it consistently delivers self-development, resilience and growth mindset activities for girls that actually work in real life. 

And it’s SO MUCH FUN.
