Such A Brilliant Idea!
“Bringing new a fresh ideas into the home and conversation pieces. Our grandson loves to get the mail and he overjoyed that something had his name on it. he just turned 4 so unable to read it himself but we enjoyed reading to him and he asked a lot of questions. The reading was long enough for engagement but short enough for busy working parents or grandparents etc. Excellent quality and easy to comprehend content.”

Month-to-Month Captain Mail plans can be cancelled anytime through your online account. You can cancel a monthly or auto-renewing subscription anytime after the initial prepaid term (6 month) has been completed. Auto-renewing subscriptions (pay every 6 months) can be turned "off" at any time so that after the current prepaid term is complete, it will not renew. Auto-renewing 6-month subscriptions cannot be cancelled. Termed subscriptions (6 month terms) are not eligible for cancellation - these subscriptions will expire after the original term is complete. However, plans can be transferred to another child. If there is no one to assign it to, we can assign it to a child in need.
