I bought this for my daughter for her 5th birthday and she absolutely loved it! Sure I had to help her with some of it but she really enjoyed putting it together and loves the finished product! The stickers are pretty easy for 5 year old fingers to handle and while they adhere nicely you can also take them off if you need to reposition them. Additionally, there are enough extra stickers in case some are lost or misplaced.

I ordered this for my 6-year old daughter, who loves arts & crafts projects. It was perfect for her! She spent hours working on it, with hardly any assistance from me. The instructions were easy for her to follow and the stick-on "jewels" were easy for her to remove from the perforated sheets and apply to the jewelry box by herself. I would highly recommend this product and plan to purchase similar kits for my daughter.

I purchased this for my daughter, and we had a great time putting the stickers on. She's four, and I think that was the perfect time for her to follow the number grid directions - a year ago, she wouldn't have cared and would have just stuck stickers wherever she wanted. That's fun too, I guess! The only problem we had with the box is that the stickers came off relatively easily. They seemed pretty rugged at first but we had a lot fall off. I was very disappointed because it was such a fun project and my daughter was excited about putting her treasures in the jewelry box (the box is fairly rugged as well and would be perfect for little girls). To be fair, my two year old son helped some of the stickers fall off, so if there are no terrible toddlers around, you may be ok. I would buy it again and keep it away from my son! When you put the stickers on, make sure to put them on very firmly. This was hard for my daughter to do, so you may want to just go back and press on each one she puts on. This may help a lot.

My 5-year-old daughter loves art and I love that the sticker art is not messy. She could spend hours doing this stuff. The jewelry box was a lot of fun for her.

I bought this for my little neighbor girl's 7th birthday and she absolutley loved it. It was by far her favorite present at her party. She had all the stickers on it the next morning and actually came over to my house to show it to me. Very cute jewelry box and good value for the money.

I worked on this with my preschool child (just turned 5) and she had a great time. It was easy enough for her to follow, and she could have done it all by herself but it was more fun for us to work on it together. The end product is very attractive and appears as if it's going to hold together well.

Update 4/4/2010: Just several months later now, the sticky tiles are falling off slowly but surely. Only a handful have fallen off, but I can honestly say that I am very disappointed in this product. It was such fun to assemble though.

I bought this for my 10 year old. She was busy - making sure that each sticky was placed correctly. She loved all the colors and the designs! Great present! A winner!

I bought this and also Melissa & Doug Wooden Princess Mirror - DYO for my 7 year old niece. Both gifts were a hit, but this was a little more useful than the mirror as she can hide her "treasures" in it. This is a good introductory jewelry box for a very young girl. It allows her to be creative and personalize it, and the cost is low enough that we didn't worry about how long it would last. She happily used stickers and glue from both products on each other.

Overall, a great gift for any little princess and at a reasonable price. Highly recommended!

My daughter had a great time putting this together. She's 5 years old and even though it took a little time, she stayed completely interested. I think 5-7 years old is the perfect age for this project.

I discovered these Sticky Mosaic products when I was looking for some gifts for one of my girls, something crafty that required some thought. I found it! So many toys for girls just don't require much thought or skill. These sticky mosaic kits are great because they require a little assembly, number and pattern recognition, fine motor skills to remove and stick the stickers. And then they have a beautiful little butterfly box when they're done and they're so proud of creating it by themselves. The sticky mosaic kits are really engaging and a great project for long airplane or car trips! I think that they're appropriate for age 5 on up (maybe age 4 for some of the simpler versions). Even my older kids love joining in. They make great gifts for girls or boys - for boys they have some dinosaur and pirate themed versions. Such fun!
