Buyer Evaluations
I am a working mom with a especially active 2.five year old and a husband who travels 50% time. This implies even even though I consider myself inventive, I appreciate the ability to whip out a pre-packaged craft project that engages my little one particular devoid of a) pre-preparing/hunting up suggestions internet b) taking her to decide to purchase supplies (in little quantities) for similar projects c) any consideration of weather or time of the day. Positive, there will be parents out there who take a appear at the content material and assume it is nothing at all specific. Properly, I have two comments: 1) a lot of of us wouldn't think of most activities for a 2-three year old particular but they are nevertheless fun and age-proper. 2) When my brain is fried from work but I'd rather not park my kid in front of the Television so that I can decompress, this is a enjoyable way to devote time with my little one particular.
Price smart, I take into consideration Amazon's cost affordable. I probably would have to spend extra if I gather the supplies myself and would have the hassle of dealing with all the leftovers.
Private factors and pricing aside, I am essentially rather impressed with the good quality of the stuff inside. The quantity for every project is either beneficial or on the generous side. Everything is vibrant/colorful and printed on top quality paper. The projects make surprisingly small or no mess. All age suitable -- some clearly require a longer interest span than my kid has or greater dexterity. That's ok I support her with some stuff or let her finish the project in a couple of sittings. I can also try to challenge her, making up related stories/asking her decoration preferences when we do these projects and encourage her to hold at it a small longer to expand her consideration span. These projects would perform greatest for 2.5-4 year olds. I like the individual packaging for most of the projects. That way, I can efficiently take 1 out at a time w/o letting my kid sees the rest and get distracted.
There are only two things that I would change: the box came with just one particular instruction sheet that shows how some of the projects are place together. For those of us who like reading instruction manuals, the only way to get an thought of what the final product appear like are the images on the massive box. Like I said, my kid gets distracted and wants whatever she sees, so I would have preferred not to have the box in front of her (albeit with all the content removed) whilst we do a project. Second, I observed that I did not get 1 of the projects pictured on the box but anything else of the same type of activity. That's sort of a disappointment due to the fact I honestly like the fish tissue art as an alternative of a star tissue art plus, I believe in you-acquire-what-you-see. I don't know how frequently Alex goods make substitutions like this.
This was a worthwhile investment. I adore seeing my kid receiving so excited during and following finishing a project. So proud and eager to hang up her most up-to-date masterwork!
We bought this for our daughter's 2 year old birthday. It is great for those rainy days. The sticker art was her favorite. I extremely advocate this for two-4 year olds.
