toucanBox produces themed arts-and-craft activity boxes for children aged three to eight. It operates on a subscription model that customers can pause, cancel or upgrade at any time. Activity sets are developed by educational experts and offered in three sizes—Petite, Grande and Super—with fortnightly or monthly delivery and personalization with the child’s name. The company is led by Virginie Charles-Dear and Sara Barokas and is based in London, UK. In May 2016 toucanBox completed its first institutional venture capital funding round, raising £3.2m. The company intends to use the funds to accelerate UK and international growth and to introduce new products.
