Melissa & Doug Stained Glass Made Easy Activity Kit: Mermaids - 140+ Stickers Kids Sticker Stained Glass Craft Kit; Mermaid Crafts for Kids Ages 5+

Arts and crafts offer children a range of creative opportunities. Their finished handwork can be gifted, used, or displayed. The Peel-and-Press line by Melissa & Doug requires little expertise beyond fine-motor skills and patience. There’s no mixing of colors, no tools or implements, no strength-based work, and no imagination is required with this kit. The Mermaid template is ready to go when your artist is. Mistakes can be corrected by reapplying the gel in the proper position. It’s an engrossing plug-and-play craft that yields a surprisingly beautiful piece of art that looks like stained glass. My kids made several of the smaller kits when they were in the single digit age range. Now that they are double digits, they enjoy working the large gel designs on rainy or wintry days. One-off projects like these are perfect “staycation” type crafts. Depending on the maturity level, your artist can do this 140-piece mermaid in one sitting, or stretch it out over a period of hours and days. Cleanup is as easy as rewrapping the gels until further use. The completed project can be a window or wall hanging to be enjoyed for many years. The gels they made more than three years ago still adorn our kitchen bay window and back door glass. Over time, the gels harden but still retain their vibrant color. We ordered several of these kits including the dragon , the butterfly , and the dolphins . Keep them on hand to ward off cabin fever, or to give as gifts. A great all-ages crafting project.

Bought for my 4yr olds birthday. She loves puzzles and sticker books. She put this together almost completely by herself. Love the low mess crafts. So cute! I wish they had more options! It’s pretty big too and kept her busy. Would definitely buy again!

It was easy to put the stickers on and made it a fun craft for our two granddaughter's! Turned out so pretty and they placed it on the window so the stain glass shows all the colors and patterns!

Loved it Took her 5.5 yes) attention for a long time and mess free

Easy to do. Fun activity but only took about 20 min. to complete.

My four year old granddaughter loved it. Easy enough to do - but occupied her a long time without losing her interest bc she had to pay attention to matching the shapes to the correct location. Her mom remarked that it was the nicest of this type of craft she had seen and A+ for ease of use. For a kid craft it is actually really pretty when completed.

These kits have several very attractive traits if you're looking for a gift for kiddos on the younger side (though I think they'd be fun for just about anyone who likes sticker books, crafts, etc.): 1. Relatively stress-free activity that doesn't require advanced skills; helps kids work on fine motor skills. 2. No mess. Your relatives will be relieved to see that your gift will not make a mess and doesn't require any special tools. 3. The designs are really fun. My little cousins adore these! 4. They're hangable after completion, so the child in question can display them out of the way in a bedroom window. When they see their pretty craft each day, they'll (maybe) think of their awesome auntie, cousin, etc. who is the best gift-giver. Success.

Fun craft to do with a 3 and 6 year old

My 6 year old granddaughter absolutely loved this project and had so much fun doing it.

Para regalo pero está hermoso y enorme.

Gave it as a gift for a 9 year old girl and she had lots of fun putting all the stickers on it and will hang it in her outside play house.

Loved this as a gift for my 6 yr old! Was easy for her to do on her own.

Bien fait et facile à faire , juste à décoller les stickers et les placer sur le faux vitrail aux même endroits. Ma petite fille a 5 ans et demi ,l’a fait seule.
