Customer Reviews
I love doing crafty activities with my kids but it ends up really messy after they work with scissors and every thing else. Alex has put together these projects very effectively because the kids can skip the complicated stuff and go right to being creative. I never run out of these because they are great for when my daughter's friends come over. They stay occupied for at least an hour and end up feeling super proud of themselves.
My 3 1/2 year old son received this craft kit for Christmas. I love that everything we needed to complete this craft was included in the box. The "Loopy friends" are 6 different sea creatures - a fish, seahorse, jellyfish, turtle, crab, and an octopus. Each one is packaged in its own bag with the "loops" that you will need. There is one sheet of stickers and illustrated instructions to show you how to make each sea creature.
My son was able to assemble these almost completely on his own once I showed him what to do. He did need help with attaching pieces (for example, the crab has glasses that attach to the top of his body).
The pieces themselves are very sturdy. When I read "paper pieces" I was expecting something flimsy. Instead, they are very colorful, sturdy cardboard. The chenille stems (the "loops") are varied in size, texture and color for each sea creature.
The projects don't last long, but they are perfect for a quick project and short attention spans. I do wish they had included more stickers. My kids tend to over-sticker their projects and it would have been nice if there wasn't a fear of running out before we completed all 6.
Overall though this is a great craft kit that kids will enjoy.
