More than one child in the same household?
You do not need a second full subscription. Add an extra explorer to include another Explorer ID, mission badge, micro-vision lens, and Field Notes page for each additional child.
Children at different addresses will need separate subscriptions so each envelope ships to the correct household.
Order by the 20th and your first adventure ships on the 25th. Order after the 20th and it ships on the 25th of next month.
