Question: I'm interested in your resources but would like to try the site first. What do I need to do?
Answer:
If you are interested in our ABC Twiggles membership, please go to www.abctwiggles.com/letter/A for a free preview of all resources for the letter A. All the other letters will have the same type and number of resources.

We offer samples of our themes and resources on www.kidssoup.com. Click here to purchase your subscription. No refunds are available for the KidsSoup Resource Library after purchase.
Pay per Purchase Order
Question: Can I pay per check or Purchase Order?
Answer: Yes! We accept checks and purchase orders. Please follow our check payment instructions.
Receipt for my purchase
Question: How can I get an invoice?
Answer: To view and print an invoice, click on Log in or My account and click on the order number. Use the "Invoice" link to download a copy of your invoice in PDF format.
Printing:
To be able to view and print our PDF files, you will need to have the newest version of Adobe Acrobat installed. Please use the following link to download the newest Adobe Acrobat Reader:
PDF file won't open or print
If you have problems viewing or printing some of the files, then there is a problem between your Internet browser and the Adobe Acrobat program that is installed on your computer. Please try to use the Google Chrome Internet browser. Chrome seems to have less problems viewing and printing high quality PDF files. Go to https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/browser/ to download the browser. That should fix the issue.

Automatic Renewal
Question: What is the Automatic Renewal Service?
Answer : The Automatic Renewal Service is a fast and convenient way to maintain access to all the resources offered by the KidsSoup Resource Library and the ABC Twiggles Program by automatically renewing your subscriptions before the expiration date.
Question: How do I know if I am enrolled in Automatic Renewal?
Answer: If you purchase a membership to the KidsSoup Resource Library or the ABC Twiggles member site using a credit card or PayPal, you are automatically enrolled in the Automatic Renewal Service unless you cancel this service.
Question: What credit card number will be used for the Automatic Renewal?
Answer: Please contact our customer service department at customerservice@kidssoup.com and we will provide this information for you.
Question: When will the Automatic Renewal occur?
Answer: Subscriptions expire one year from the purchase date. If your subscription is purchased using a credit card, your subscription will typically renew 14 days prior to its expiration date. If your subscription is purchased using PayPal, PayPal typically will renew your subscription on your behalf on the expiration date.
Question: How do I update or use a different credit card for the Automatic Renewal?
Answer : You may change your billing information by purchasing a new subscription. During the checkout process, please login as a returning customer instead of a new customer. In addition, please remember to cancel the Automatic Renewal for your current subscription to avoid attempts by our payment processors to renew your current subscription.
Question: If the Automatic Renewal is processed before my membership expires, will I lose any membership time?
Answer: No – a full 12 months of membership time is credited to your membership once a successful automatic renewal is confirmed.
For example: if you have 14 days of membership time remaining on the day the automatic renewal is processed, you will receive a total of 12 months plus 14 days.
Question: Will I receive email notification prior to my Automatic Renewal?
Answer : If your membership was purchased using a credit card, our payment processor will send you an e-mail notification 7 days before processing the Automatic Renewal. If your membership was purchased using PayPal, you will not receive notification prior to your renewal as PayPal does not notify customers prior to renewing memberships.
Question: I received an e-mail informing me that KidsSoup is unable to automatically renew my membership due to invalid payment information. What do I do?
Answer : Please visit our secure online store and purchase a new membership. You should also cancel the Automatic Renewal of your current membership to avoid further payment attempts from our payment processor.
Question: What if I purchase a new membership before the Automatic Renewal occurs?
Answer: The new membership will be treated as an additional membership and the Automatic Renewal will be processed unless you cancel it. Depending on the type (number of users) of each membership, the memberships will combine into the corresponding multi-user membership during the period of overlap. For example, if a One User membership is purchased on January 1st and a One User membership is automatically renewed on January 15th, the memberships will combine into a Two User membership from January 15th to January 1st and then revert back to a One User membership from January 2nd to January15th.
Cancel Membership
Question: How do I cancel the Automatic Renewal Service?
Answer: If your membership was purchased with PayPal you need to cancel the automatic renewal using the PayPal website. Please click here for more information.
To cancel the Automatic Renewal for a membership purchased with a credit card send an e-mail to customerservice@kidssoup.com. Please do this at least 15 days before your membership expiration date to avoid an automatic charge.

Question: I requested a new password but didn’t hear back from you.
