My First Review and My First Giveaway
I was recently contacted by Creativity for Kids asking if I would like to be a part of their group of bloggers to review products for them!! This was after they saw this blog post about their puppet kit that I got for the boys to do and how much fun we had doing it! I was ecstatic to be a part of this!
We got our first product to review this week – a stocking kit! You can view this kit and purchase online for $21.99 here.
Let me say how much I love their kits!! They are so easy to put together! This kit did not require any extra tools. My boys are young (age 4 and age 2) and they were still able to help. I could have let them loose with it and we could have had a very interesting design but I decided to oversee the design of the stocking :-)!
The only downside was the fact that the kit only included one big stocking (it also includes a very small stocking…big enough to hold a few candy canes). We decided that since we have not gotten Alyssa a stocking yet that we would make this stocking for her. Here is what the finished stocking looks like! We were all pleased with it! (and the picture does not do it justice…you can’t see the sequence beads that are all over it)
I did let the boys loose with the little stocking. They each got to decorate one side of it.
Here is Seth’s finished side.
Here is Aaron’s finished side.
And now for the giveaway!!!
This company not only is gracious enough to send us a kit to review, they are also donating a kit of choice to give away to one of my blog readers! So you get to play a part in this fun as well!! Aren’t you excited?!?!?

I would like to try the Money Monster Banks kit. My son has a fascination with money and monsters. I think he would have a ton of fun making his own monster bank.

I would be happy with any of those kits but they tie dye is pretty cool/
ReplyDeleteThe "Ancient Eygpt Mummies and More" looks like a fun kit. I personally have never done a kit like these. I will be surfing around their site more! Thanks! Rusty. spencerrusty13@att.net
