Craft kits are a big hit in my house. We always have at least two or three sitting on a shelf waiting for a rainy day. Creativity for Kids make quite a few different kinds of kits and this household owns or has used quite a few. I usually can’t walk out of Jo-Ann Fabrics or Hobby Lobby with out at least one of their kits if my girls are with me. There are quite a few varieties, large and small to choose from. My girls usually go for the beads sets, nail art sets or coloring kits. My son, when he was younger, liked the art kits.
I was given 2 Creativity for Kids kits to review.

My Review:
I thought my daughters would think the monster kit was weird but they really got into it. In fact my 9 year old neighbor (girl) volunteered to help out making the kits.
My neighbor and my 4 year old made the headband kits and we really had a blast making them. The only critisim we had about the kit was that the glue didn’t work as well as we’d like, so I’d suggest keeping some strong craft glue on hand just in case you run into the same problem.
*Note my 4 year old dancing around in her new “princess” headband she made for herself. She was quite impressed with all the sparkles that came with the kit.
My neighbor and my 4 year old started making the Monster kit and my 11 year old daughter later joined in the when she saw how much fun they were having. I have to say even I joined in. This kit was really fun.
Fun!!!!
