My seven year old had been asking for a kids sewing kit for awhile, and I had been looking for one that he might like when I came across this one. He's huge into animals, so this was perfect. It comes with the materials to make five woodland animals - a fox, a chickadee, an owl, a rabbit, and a bear, as well as the tools to make them (minus the scissors). He was very impressed that it had pins and a pincushion in addition to all the rest of it, since that meant he had his own pincushion like his older sister. The majority of the set is very well made - nice felt, nice embroidery thread, nice materials for the animals in general. The box itself is also well made, and he's taken to sometimes carrying it around even when he's not going to make an animal right then. (He's made two of them so far.) The only complaint I have with it? The needles - our metal needle broke the first time we tried to use it, and most of the plastic needles bent and/or broke even with the holes punched into the felt. (They're not very big, and not really lined up to sew the animals the way the instructions tell you to.) That being said, if you have any quality needles at home, you'll be fine. We just ended up using one of the needles from my sewing kit that I have to make repairs and so forth. And even if you don't have needles, they're easily obtained at craft and/or sewing stores for cheap.
The instructions are very clear and easy to follow. My seven year old did need help sometimes, but he had no sewing experience before this kit and did better with the stitches when shown them. It was much easier to get the two animals we've made so far sewn once I got out a better needle, as like I said before, the holes don't necessarily line up. He's very please with this kit, and I'm happy to have found it. It's definitely a 4 1/2 star sewing kit - better quality needles would make it a definite 5 star kit. But even with the needles it has, I'd still recommend it.

Great gift idea! Highly recommend!
What a wonderful gift! I bought this for a 7 year old girl in the family, and she had a blast making the cute little animals. I think that for the price of the set, you do get your money's worth and hours of fun. She loved making the animals so much, she finished the whole set in 2 days and even gifted a few to her friends.Just be careful with children handling the smaller felt pieces, as they do tend to get lost easily. Also, the directions are rather long for young children to follow without getting bored, so you may have to show/help them on their first animal.The only problem that we came across was how easily the plastic needles bent. Once they get bent too much, they become unusable.But overall, it was a great gift and she really loved it. Will be rebuying this again once the other children in our family are a little bit older.
