This is the second set of the 3 activity kits I got from Kidz Station. You can see the first one here.

Art activity is one good way to bond with your kids. It is inexpensive and both of you will learn a lot of things during the process.

Princess Wand

You and your little girl can make two princess wands in one set.

Each set includes the following materials:

1 – 14.5″ double sided tape
1 – 4″ feather boa
2 – 7.25″ wooden dowels
1 – 48.25″ pink ribbon
1 – 48.25″ purple ribbon
1 – 72″ silver wire
hundreds of beads

We came up with this!

The Princess and Her Wand

Each kit costs P50 (original price was P249) from Kidz Station.

I was roaming around Shangrila yesterday when I noticed that Kidz Station has several items on sale. I was broke but I know that I have to find a yoyo for Yona. They have no yoyos on sale so I scouted for more toys. I found imported art sets from Curiosity Kits. It was priced Php249.75 before but they slashed it down to Php50. I asked the sales girl if the contents are still intact, she assured me that it were. “Yung kahon lang mam, kasi medyo sira na.” Oh, no problem with me. After all, it was just a pasalubong for my little girl.

Anyhoo, I got three sets:

1. Tooth Fairy Pillow
2. Princess Wands
3. Make Believe Fantasy Fairy

I’ll discuss more of the second and third sets in my succeeding posts. Let me tell you something on the first art set that we opened, the Tooth Fairy Pillow.

Each set consists:
2-die cut white felt “tooth” pillow pieces
1-die cut pink felt pillow piece
1-2″x3″ self sticking black felt
1-5″ red yarn
1-plastic needle
1/4 oz. fiberfill
pattern sheet
tooth fact sheet
illustrated instructionsI let Yona sew the felt pieces using the plastic needle and the red yarn. She also got the chance to stick the black felt for the eyes and lips.

The finish product. A smiling tooth! =)

And a pillow pocket to hold the tooth!
