Kid's Boredom Buster Kit
A kit full of side quests for kids who need something to do — and a parent who needs ten minutes.
It happens. The tablet dies. The friends are busy. The day stretches out like a long hallway with nothing at the end of it. This kit was made for exactly that moment.
The Boredom Buster Kit is stuffed with games, activities, writing prompts, and creative challenges for kids who need something to DO. Not something to consume — something to make, play, solve, and invent. It arrives ready to unbox and immediately use.

The two paths — choose your adventure:
The Quest Map is a structured trail through the kit — each item is wrapped, numbered, and comes with a prompt card tucked inside. Open one at a time and follow along. Perfect for kids who like a plan.
The Wild Wander is for kids who want to tear the whole thing open at once. No order, no rules, no wrong way. Just go.
Both paths are included. Nothing is required.
-
Quest Map + Wild Wander prompt cards — bespoke to this kit, printed by hand. · $10.00
A note for parents
This kit is not a screen and it won't hold their attention for six hours straight. But it will give them options — real, tangible, interesting options — for the moments when they don't know what to do with themselves. Those moments are actually important. This kit supports them.
Ships beautifully wrapped, each item numbered and ready to discover. Ready to gift or keep.

What is so unique?
As two budding neurodivergent writers, we wanted to share things that inspire us (and spark our creativity and dopamine). We love creating writing kits as mini collections to celebrate a writer's uniqueness. Writing kits are packed with thoughtful gifts that inspire writers through touch, writing prompts, aesthetics, games, challenges, and a few things to celebrate you! As two ADHD writers, we know our inspirational brains are always active- but sometimes we need a change of venue or activity. Hence, a bookish kit with creative side quests.
Can I personalize gifts?
Yes! Our handwriting isn't perfect, but we would love to personalize your gifts with an included card. (NOTE: we are still updating our website and if the message option doesn't appear - just email us @ guildedmonocle@gmail.com and tell us the following: )
