American Girl Crafts Paper Flower Posies Activity Kit, 1326pc

Its American girl they make great stuff for girls i think the age is off a little I think its for a younger girl, girls these days are so mature. I got one for my Grand-daughter who is 8 and she said and i quote " that's baby stuff ' and grandma says, ugg! I like them but not my 8 year old. I would play with them they are pretty and the paper and colors are beautiful. I have a complaint they ask good money for their stuff. They are showing the flowers in a decorated can in a flower arrangement using pipe cleaners, its MISLEADING all kids have a can for free. American Girl add some pipe cleaners, their cheap, so girls or boys can make the project you are showing. I took a star for this reason!

It's hard to tell from the picture, but some of the flowers are not symmetrical, and the colors are just slightly more muted than they appear in the posting. Also, I was under the impression this was a 12" by 12" pad, but it's more like 9. That was probably in the description, and I might have overlooked it. On the positive side, the pad comes with leaves and butterflies that are really pretty, and there are two of each design. There are also 3 dimensional adhesive squares that come in super handy. There a lot of really fun designs, and as far as projects go, this pad will make for many really really fun afternoons, and I have no regrets on buying it at all.

This is one of my favorite crafts kits and we've tried many. You get a pad with lots of pages of flowers,leaves, butterflies, and bees that are easily punched out and then you layer them using the adhesive sticky tabs. The combinations and possibilities are endless. I purchased chenille stems which we hot glued to the flowers and added leaves to make a beautiful bouquet and we used the kit to decorate a cup to make a vase for them. There's still plenty of designs left for other projects such as cards and posters. The colors are beautiful and many of the designs are glittered for that extra sparkle. I wasn't sure about the bulkiness of the adhesive tabs at first but they stay secure and add dimension to the flowers. Crafts should be fun and not frustrating to foster creativity. You can't go wrong with this one. I'm very impressed with the quality and ease of this kit.

I bought these for the crafting birthday party that we had for my 6 year old. The girls decorated vases at the party, and then put together the flowers to put in the vases. It was a hit. The flowers are really nice, and the pads made LOTS of them - we had 12 kids at the party and had plenty of flowers using 2 pads. My only critique would be that we had a zillion leftover leaves, so I think the proportion is a bit off, but it didn't matter in the end. Also, note that these don't come with pipe cleaners, so if you want flowers with stems, you'll need to buy those separately. Overall, I was really pleased with these!!

Enough here for a whole party. Each page is printed both sides, and there are three of each page. They punch out easily nd withpout frustration. Several different pages of varying sizes of flowers, plus hearts, butterflies, and leaves, plus sticky squares. No glue needed. Easy enough for a young four year old or dexterous three. Complex enough for an 11 or 12 year old to have fun with. Hints: if you are giving this as a gift, go to the dollar store and get pipe-cleaners to give with it. I read that in other reviews and that was spot-on. Any pastel or neon colors and/or green. Also get a couple of sheets of scrapbook paper, and give that too. Instant happy craft project. Cover a soup can with the paper, and create an instant bouquet. These can also be added to cards or packages.

Therapy Tool and Free Time Craft.I love this book of poises. I got them for my clients to do when I am doing home visits. It is easier for children totalk when keeping their hands busy. Bonus, the parent got involved as well. There is a ton of choices. I've already ran out of the largestflower so I used the stencil to draw more on construction paper. Pipe Cleaners are good, but I also like colored popsicle sticks and magnets.The littlest ones like to stick them on the refrigerator. And we still have 3/4 of our 2 sided sticky squares.My daughter and I also made a bouquet together. Fun Fun Fun

My mom is writing this for me because I'm 9. It is very fun and easy. I liked mine so much that I got one for my friend too. It is very nice to use when making cards or decorations. I would prefer that they were all just regular flowers because I don't really care for the flowers with words on them. There are not only flowers to stick together but there are hearts, leaves, pink and orange bees, and butterflies too. There are tons of pages but I've used almost all of mine already! :)

Our daughter has had such a wonderful time creating with these. We find little flowers adoring different places in the house. She had made multiple cards, and other art projects. She has been so proud of some of her creations she has asked to have a safety pin attached to it so she can wear it to school. We love the sayings that some of the pieces have on them. They are all positive. When she finishes up the book we will definitely consider buying it again.

Lots of flowers and butterflies. Good for a group like a party. Maybe a bit too many for just one girl. I bought this and added pipe cleaners and pompoms for a little girl gift. Slightly overpriced but not too bad.

Lots of fun. Quick delivery.
