I love spending quality time with my child & nieces. One of our favorite things to do together is arts & crafts. We were very happy to receive product samples from Creativity for Kids for our enjoyment and review. Over the last few weeks, we have been creating everything from a Gnome Garden, to beautiful greeting cards & trinket boxes, to feather headbands!
The Creativity for Kids Craft kits include everything you need for the project(s) and the quality is excellent. The kits are available for purchase both online at http://www.fabercastell.com/creativity-for-kids and also at many stores. I will absolutely be purchasing more of these kits, because we have had a blast using them!
Daydreaming Realist received samples from Faber-Castell and MomSelect. All thoughts are my own.
Mossy Meadows Gnome Garden
We had an amazing time creating the Mossy Meadows Gnome Garden! This craft kit contains some of the cutest decorations I've ever seen; each item is true-to-life. There's a brilliant little gnome home, adorable lady bugs, a precious gnome family and plenty of natural elements to make the Gnome Garden come to life.
|
Beautiful detailing on the container. |
My child really loved the texture of the soil mixture. Gnomes got hidden beneath the soil, which induced much laughter from everyone. I loved watching this project being created from a child's imagination. It wasn't just a project, it was an adventure to create a real Gnome Garden!
|
A work in progress. The gnomes are safely grounded during their garden construction ;-) |
What's included in the Mossy Meadows Gnome Garden kit:
"Everything you need to create an enchanting home for 3 wee gnomes. This all-inclusive garden craft kit includes a garden dish, potting mix, wheat grass seeds, bark house, leaf-shaped pond, mossy rocks, stepping stones, resin gnomes, toadstools, ladybugs, paint, brush and a mister - just add water and a little sunshine! The garden dish measures 11"w x 2"d. The natural wheat grass seeds are pet friendly and sprout in just a few days." quoted from Creativity for Kid's site.
I'd like to also add that the Mossy Meadows Gnome Garden would be a fantastic gift for adults, as well as children. I was madly in love with it the very second I laid eyes on it. You could very easily grow any small flowers in here & change it out with the seasons. I'd love to plant moss roses in ours, one day. I plan to do that very, soon, because that's one of our favorite plants. The kit comes with pet-safe wheat grass, so you don't have to worry about your pets checking out the enchanting Gnome Garden, too :)
Feather Fashions Craft kit
From hair extensions to headbands, add some feathery fun to your style! This complete set includes hairclips, headbands, ponytail holders, 40+ feather, rhinestones and enough accessories to make 12+ designs. Enough to wear and share! (Feathers are sourced in USA and inspected and certified by the U.S. Division of Fish & Wildlife.) quoted from here.
Feathers are really trendy right now in the fashion world. You cannot go into a store without seeing feather hair accessories, feather extensions or feather jewelry. This trendy Feather Fashions kit by Creativity for Kids is ideal for both children and the fashionista, alike. You can create many different feather hair accessories using the products in this fun kit. You have the option of creating pony tail holders, headbands, hair clips or flowy feather extensions for your hair. Children will love the bright, neon colors & assortment of jewels.

These are two hair clips that were created by us. |

You can add the clips to the headbands to create new designs.
The headbands are stretchy and were comfortable even on my adult head :) |
Deluxe Glitter Art craft kit
This is a kit that keeps on giving! The package is incredibly intriguing, but it's not until you open it that you realize all of the possibilities that lie within the contents. It has all needed materials to create greeting cards, paper gift tags/ornaments, trinket boxes and more. There are glitter glue pens--which parents know are very child-friendly, especially for younger children. I love using glitter glue, because it's not only less messy, it's good for self-expression and fine motor skills. The kit also includes real glitter to take each project to the next level. The glitter containers have shaker tops on them (like a salt shaker). You can create many festive projects using both the glitter glue & the gorgeous shades of glitter included in this kit.
Another great quality of the Deluxe Glitter Art kit is that it includes ribbons & glue for the gift tags/ornaments, envelopes for the greeting cards and even puffy stickers to use on any project. It truly is all-inclusive and is suitable for both males and females; boys like to create greeting cards & ornaments, too :)

GREAT post! I love doing crafts with Toodie. Craft kits are one of my favorite things to purchase because they come with everything you need. You don't have to run around the house looking for supplies! She would love the Deluxe Glitter Art kit mainly because it comes with glitter. I can see that disappearing rather quickly... leaving her looking like a sparkly fairy :)
ReplyDeletelol! We did glitter inside of a shallow plastic container to catch all of it. Then, I poured it back in the little tube with a funnel :) I just had to see if it would work lol ;) Wishing lots of luck to you and your sweet sparkly fairy :)
