These flowers are a lot of fun for the kids to paint. I bought two of them and my children really enjoyed painting them for their grandparents. The flowers themselves are very durable. The only thing is that we ended up losing one of them because we had it outside and when it got windy the little plastic cap which hold the flowers on blew off, and the flowers blew off in the wind. So that is something to watch for. But I would recommend this flower as a great activity for the kids...and a great present for the grandparents!

This pinwheel is a nice idea. My daughter loves working with me in our garden, painting, and pinwheels, so it seemed like a great combination of those interests. She was REALLY excited about it, and enjoyed painting the petals. There are two problems, though, which have to do with her being a preschooler handling this toy. First, the paintbrush easily broke into two pieces, which had to be stuck back together. Second, one of the black plastic components snapped, and this was a bit of a disaster, since it's the one that connects the "stem" to the back, larger petal. I tried superglue and a hot glue gun, but neither worked, because of the plastic and the weight of the flowers. So I had to find a way to attach the flowers to the base, and this doesn't allow the back set of petals to spin. But they don't really spin anyway, they're so heavy! When it's fully assembled and stays in one piece, this flower looks really pretty in our garden!

THIS CRAFT ITEM IS VERY COLORFUL AND STANDS UP TO THE WEATHER VERY WELL. IT IS A LOT OF FUN TO PAINT. THE GIRLS ALL LOVED THEM

We put this in my daughter's Easter basket and it was a hit. Due to it's size and being sectioned she didn't whiz through painting it in 5 minutes like most flat objects. It's a great addition in our garden and she continues to go back and look at it.
