ALEX Toys Do-it-Yourself Wear Friends 4 Ever Jewelry

i bought this kit to share with my 9 year old niece. we are both very good at making bracelets with the round wheels, it is so easy. we were more interested in the square wheels which we had not seen before. the square wheels make completely different bracelets and we have had so much fun making bracelets for swapping at camps. the threads are lovely colours and very good quality and there is plenty of them. my niece loves the carry case. recommended for any crafter.

Fantastic, we are very impressed with this kit, the instructions are a little difficult to follow, but there are plenty videos on line to help guide how to use the looms

Bought for my nieces 9th birthday. Smaller than I thought it would be and not cheap. Saying that I think she will love it as is well into arts and crafts and making things. Very colourful and in a nice case.

I gave this to my 9-year-old granddaughter for Christmas, and she spent a couple of hours, straightaway, making her first cords. She was thrilled that she could use beads with the threads, as she's in to making bead bracelets for herself and her friends, and this will enable her to do something a little different. I use threading plates like this for Kumihimo, so I'm used to the technique. This would be a good starter set for an adult as well as for children.

I am an adult and I bought this for myself. The box is packed with everything you need to make bracelets of all shapes and designs. Highly recommend it for both young and old crafters.

I bought this for an 8 year old, who has every technical phone, games console, etc, so I wasn't sure how a conventional 'make it yourself' gift would be received. But it was a big hit!

Good and fast delivery. Bought for my 9 year old as a Christmas present, she didn't take long to catch on and we've been making bracelts together. We both love it.

My only complaint with this otherwise excellent kit is that the instructions came in several languages and thus weren't that detailed. I managed to download a copy of the instructions from the manufacturer's website and they were only in English and much clearer - the other languages for each step took up a lot of room, thus preventing more detailed information. Otherwise, a super selection of threads and the foam wheels are sturdy and make great bracelets - one you get the hang of it!

Piaciuto molto, offre tanti schemi di gioco

Se lo recomiendo a cualquier persona que tenga que regalar a una niña de 12 años, como fue mi caso.Esta en un maletin, con lo qual se guarda bastante bien y no es una simple caja de cartón, que la acabas tirando al abrir. Esta todo muy bien ordenado, los hilos son de colores muy bonitos y esta con todo tipo de detalles. Me gusto mucho tanto el contenido como el envoltorio. Es una buena manera de hacer manualidades y que a las niñas les gusta. Lo compre para el regalo de Navidad.

We bought this for our 7 year old daughter for her birthday hoping to interest her in a new hobby that would encourage her creativity (and keep her hands busy). The manufacturer suggests this product for 8-12 year olds and I would generally agree (based on dexterity and attention span). However, some younger children, especially those that have the attention span and can repeat a pattern with their hands fairly reliably, will be able to master this activity. Our 5 1/2 year old daughter has given it a try but needs help every once in a while when she gets off the pattern.We've noticed that the girls don't have as much problem with the circular looms. However, they've had difficulty getting the bracelets from the square looms to come out uniformly. It seems to be a matter of learning how to keep uniform tension on the floss and weave consistently. Not difficult; it just takes a little attention and practice.The "suitcase" contains four foam looms (2 square and 2 round); 22 skiens of floss; 2 small containers of beads (clear, and multicolored); a beading needle; and instructions.* Each loom has two patterns (one on each side) for a total of 8 patterns. The finished pattern design is printed around the center hole of the loom, and the notches are painted with the suggested colors used to create the pattern. It's easy to substitute out colors to create your own color schemes. After several months, we've noticed the paint start to rub off the notches on the foam looms (bound to happen over time). Repainting with nail polish may help though we haven't tried that yet.* The skiens of floss can get used up pretty quickly (only 22). We've found that the local sewing/craft store sells a pack of 50 skiens for around $10.* We haven't used the beading needle, so I can't comment there. The beads, however, are the right size for the floss and the kids fingers (bigger than seed beeds, smaller than pony beads). My girls haven't shown much interest in incorporating the beads into their projects. They seem to get caught up in the rhythm of the weaving and forget to use them. I would caution that the container lids don't secure down - they slip right off. I would suggest finding another container with a snug lid or taping the lids down to prevent spilled beads.* The instructions are fairly easy to follow. As has been mentioned by others, the YouTube videos are helpful, especially for those that learn best by watching others. A ruler for measuring out floss has been printed on the fold-out instructions, so all you really need is a pair of scissors for cutting the floss and a pen/pencil (for creating the first loop).* We still keep the materials, looms, and supplies in the "suitcase" which has proven to be durable.As our girls have used the product, we've found that they favor the round looms and bracelets over the square. I think this is largely because (1) the weaving rhythm is more continous on the circular looms, (2) it's easier to keep constant tension on the circular looms, (3) the consistent tension yields a more uniform and finished looking product, (4) the round bracelets are usually faster to complete (our experience has been 1 1/2 to 2 hours for the round bracelets compared to 3 for the flat bracelets), and (5) the girls favor the heart and flower designs produced by the circular looms.Our girls have had a fun time creating bracelets for friends (boys and girls) and themselves. They seem to enjoy planning out the colors and trying to invent new patterns. I would agree with the reviewers who would have liked to see additional patterns. We've also used the floss to create our own knotted/braided/woven bracelets using patterns we've found elsewhere on the web.Overall, a fun product that was worth the $17.50 we paid for it!

説明書は　英語だったけど　ユーチューブで説明動画を検索してやれば　簡単でした。小学4年生の娘も　楽しんで作ってます。思ってる以上の出来栄えに　私も娘も感激しました。

Es bastante complicado,cuesta coger el tranquilo, las pulseras quedan geniales!
