Creativity for Kids Review + Giveaway (Closed)

by Kate on May 8th, 2010 | 580 Comments » | In Giveaways, Giveaways, Reviews, Reviews, Spring Into Spring

I truly enjoy doing sitting down at the kitchen table to do crafts and little art projects with my son. The only problem? I really don’t have a big collection of supplies (or ability or creativity). So when it comes to tackling something  beyond doodling with crayons on paper, I need some help and I need all the supplies. Enter Creativity for Kids and their full-service art projects – everything you need to inspire your little one and get the creative juices flowing.

Big Fun Stamp Art

Use these washable ink pads, stamps, markers and your imagination to create clever works of art. Set includes 12 chunky foam stamps perfect for little hands, 3 ink pads, 8 markers, 30 page sketch pad and 2 adhesive back cardboard frames with hanging tabs. There is a colorful stamp art guide included too!

The Big Fun Stamp Art set literally contains every single thing you need  – from a pad of paper to frames – to create art with your child. Now, as much as I absolutely adore my son and think he’s perfect, I completely recognize that he lacks a little bit of skill in the art department. His talent is pretty much limited to scribbling. But, he does have all the skills necessary to use the Big Fun Stamp Art set. The stamps are in three different sizes and the largest is definitely the easiest for him to use and maneuver, but he can manage all of them.

The set comes with an art guide with great ideas for pictures you can create with the shaped stamps, such as a rocket and flower. While the set is recommended for kids 3 and older, Preschool Boy wasn’t interested in making any of the suggested pictures (and they did seem a bit over his head). He just wanted to get ink on the stamp and stamp and stamp and stamp. He really enjoys it even if he’s not creating anything recognizable. We’ve made several thank you notes (including for his teachers last week during Teacher Appreciation Week) and we have a stamp art masterpiece on the fridge.


Spring Craft Kits & Projects

Creativity for Kids has lots of kits and projects that are perfect for spring and a great way to help your wee one get inspired by nature. I love the Flower Press & Nature Cards. This is a perfect set to use to make end of the year teacher cards or notes for classmates.
