Gifting

A gift that keeps arriving

Most presents are over by lunchtime. A Classified Cases mystery keeps turning up in the mail for weeks, addressed to the detective, each delivery a little more intriguing than the last.

How gifting works

  1. 1

    Choose the case

    Pick the right mystery for the recipient's age and reading confidence. Our case pages list ages, length and difficulty.

  2. 2

    Mark it as a gift at checkout

    Enter the recipient's name and shipping address.

  3. 3

    Add a message

    Write a note and we'll send it along. You can also choose a date for us to email the recipient's grown-up that a case is on its way, or let the first box be the surprise.

  4. 4

    We take it from there

    Box 1 ships to the recipient. Later deliveries follow the detective's progress, straight to the same address.

Timing it right

For a birthday or holiday, order a couple of weeks ahead so Box 1 arrives in time. The rest of the case follows at the detective's own pace, so there's no rush once it starts.

One thing to pass on

The first time your detective signs in, the portal asks for the order number so the case can be linked to a grown-up's parent view. You'll find it in your confirmation email; share it with the recipient's family.

Who it's for
  • Grandchildren, nieces, nephews and godchildren who love a puzzle
  • Birthday kids who have everything except a mystery to solve
  • Siblings to solve together (one kit, one shared login)
  • Holiday gifts that last well past the holiday
