Toys

Add a comment By Saskia

Buying gifts for any kid can be pretty overwhelming at the best of times, but when it's Christmas gifts for one, five, ten, or even more O_O it can turn into a full-on mission!

But don't worry! Just take a deep breath, make a cuppa, find a comfy place, and let us guide you through Our Top 10 – Toy Gifts Ideas for 2022! :D

BrainBox

This year, BrainBox has returned new & improved with all new packaging! Brainbox kits require no soldering or trimming, so kids can delve straight into building over 500 exciting experiments with the Maximum Electronic Kit, or maybe they want to see the inner workings of vehicles by experimenting via a Car & Boat Experiment Kit, find coins with a metal detector they built themselves – and if none of those sound enticing, check out the rest of the BrainBox range!

Māori Language Week at Mighty Ape

Company

3 comments By Che

Ngā mihi nui. Ko tēnei Te Wiki o Te Reo Māori. It's Māori Language Week and at Mighty Ape we will be marking the occasion in several ways.

Te Wiki o Te Reo Māori (Māori Language Week) presents us with a challenge to increase our use of the reo (language) and we're happy to accept the wero (challenge). So in the spirit of that you will notice some more kupu Māori (Māori words) on our Pukamata (Facebook), Pae Tīhau (Twitter), and īmēra (emails) this week.

Did you know that Mighty Ape's reo Māori name is Makimaki Toa? The name is comprised of Makimaki meaning ape or monkey, and Toa meaning mighty, brave, champion, warrior, etc. Coincidentally “Toa” also means shop or store.

Now Hiring! We're on the lookout for two full-time drivers...

Company

1 comment By Dylan

Keen to work for Mighty Ape? We're hiring two new full-time drivers for our new Jungle XL delivery service!

You’d be joining our growing Jungle Express team that prides itself on fast local delivery, backed up with personalised service that our customers can trust. We like to have fun and brighten the day of customers right across Auckland…

Key requirements for the job include a full driver's license (with no demerits), being physically fit, and a friendly demeanour when on the road with the team delivering to customers.

You'd be driving a Mighty Ape van or lite truck, starting and ending your day at Mighty Ape HQ near Silverdale. You'll primarily be delivering our larger format products (flat-screen TVs, flat pack furniture etc) but we ensure two team members per vehicle when delivering anything heavy that you're unable to manage safely on your own.
