We homeschool, so teaching kids to use scissors falls 100% on me, and I consider this craft set to be both fun and very educational for little ones. There are 8 different cutting crafts packed inside, as well as a practice sheet for cutting techniques (i.e. a circle to cut, a square, wavy lines, etc.) and a bright, colorful picture-instructions sheet that shows how you can make all 8 crafts. Each craft is individually wrapped--making this kit the sort of thing you can spend a whole rainy day on OR spread the projects out over time and do a craft every week or so--with cutting sheets and stickers inside each bag. The kit is very organized, in this way.
Of course, also included is a pair of safety scissors and a glue stick. The glue stick is nice and big, the glue goes on bright purple and dries clear rather quickly. The scissors are true safety scissors: there is no metal blade, and they won't cut hair (I tried). The blades are plastic and not even really sharp. They are tightly assembled to help them cut, though I noticed after 2-3 crafts that both of my girls' scissors were dulling and becoming looser. Suddenly they were having a harder time cutting. That said, I LOVED the special little spring attached that pushes the scissors back open after cutting down--what a brilliant idea! My little ones got the concept of cutting much faster because of this design, I think, and it made little hands cutting paper just that much more easy. Since we homeschool and will get a lot of use out of safety scissors, I went looking for a safety scissors with both a metal blade AND the special spring that helps little ones cut. Here on Amazon I found the "Westcott Preschool Training Scissors", so I think I'll be ordering those.
Scissors aside, this inexpensive craft kit makes for a fantastic gift and hours of fun. I can't recommend it enough. Even my almost-three-year-old loved it and she was a little young to be learning cutting. I helped her by holding her hands hand cutting with her, I can tell she's catching on. The crafts are all so cute and original--a princess crown, a monster mask, a snake to cut out and decorate--I think this kit is wonderful and I definitely recommend it!
