We are no strangers to the Learning Resources brand, in fact, it is our top brand for interactive, educational and fun toys for kids!
If you’ve ever asked your child, “How was school today?” and received a one-word response like “Fine” or “Good”—then this review is for you.
If you follow us on Instagram, then you’ll know that Gia started Year One, back in August 2024. It was a big deal for us! Naturally so many things changed in our daily routine, we became busier with afternoon sporting activities and engulfed with homework which lead to less time to really talk. I found myself casually asking Gia how her day was in the car while on our way to the next activity and her usual answer became “fine mom”.
We parents deserve better than vague answers and shrugging shoulders. Enter Learning Resources’ Unpack Your Day Conversation Kit—the game-changer in parent-child communication.
What Is the Unpack Your Day Kit?
This isn’t just a deck of cards with random questions—it’s a thoughtfully designed conversation starter kit that has really helped Gia open up about her day in ways I never imagined. Instead of basic, yes-or-no questions, it gives creative, engaging prompts that actually gets Gia talking.
What Makes It So Great?
Instead of “Did you have fun today?”, you’ll ask things like “What was the funniest thing that happened at school today?” or “If today was a colour, what would it be and why?” Genius, right?
Some questions are deep, while others are downright hilarious, making it easier for Gia to relax and share more.
There is also no need for an hour-long interrogation—you just pick a card and start a meaningful conversation. We like to set our Rainbow Visual Timer from Learning Resources too, we set it to 15 minutes (it can be set for 1, 3, 5 &15 minutes- it is AWESOME) and each day we have a meaningful conversation about Gia’s day!
The first time we used this kit, Gia and I laughed so hard they almost fell off their chair. Instead of the usual “School was fine” response, I got a full breakdown of who said what at break time, and the latest dramatic canteen story. It was like suddenly unlocking a behind-the-scenes look at Gia’s school life—without the guesswork!
Our final Verdict
A Must-Have for Parents!
Some children find it difficult to open up and this kit will truly help you connect with your child. Unpack Your Day is a total game-changer. It turns after-school chats into fun, meaningful conversations that deepen your bond and keep you in the loop about your child’s world.
Want to try it for yourself? Get your Unpack Your Day Kit here! Your future self will thank you when you finally know who swapped who’s school bag in the locker! 😆

Directions-
Add the strawberries and greek yoghurt to a Nutribullet blender or something similar. Blend until there are no lumps of strawberries.
Drizzle some melted peanut butter into the bottom of the heart shaped molds then pour in the strawberry and yoghurt mixture. Allow to freeze for a few hours or overnight. Then let your pup enjoy!
I used small heart molds to create treats which I will use as a food topper. I used a heart shaped lollypop mold for a bigger treat.
