Create colorful, three-dimensional paper artwork using the Paperoni Deluxe Studio. Designed for ages four to eight, this studio features a kid-safe paper cutter, several self-adhesive molds and templates, and Paperoni paper pieces and rods of various sizes. Simple instructions show kids how to safely cut the paper rods into different sizes, stick them to the templates, and create three-dimensional art. A free-form template allows kids to create a work of art from scratch.

Easy, Safe Art Studio for Kids
With the Paperoni Deluxe Studio, kids have the tools to make three-dimensional artwork independently. The Studio's paper cutting blade is set safely out of reach inside the cutter. Kids simply drop one of the paper rods into the small hole on top of the cutter, use the yellow dial to select a size from one to six, and press down gently on the lever to cut. To help keep track of pieces that have already been cut, the cutter features convenient storage compartments on top.

Cut, Peel, and Stick
Very young children may initially need an adult's help to understand the instructions. The studio includes three self-adhesive, color-coded templates, and the instructions show you what sizes and quantities of Paperoni pieces are needed for each template. Kids just cut the right sizes, then match the colors. Over-sized tweezers assist in sticking the Paperoni pieces to the self-adhesive templates, creating art that jumps off the page.

Create a Lion, Mouse, or Custom Design
Kids will enjoy sticking the pieces to the included two-dimensional template and watching a pink-and-blue mouse take shape. To ensure the pieces stick, kids should try to mold the pinched ends of the Paperoni pieces into their original round shape and evenly space the pieces on the template.

Another three-dimensional mold can be transformed into a lion. Kids decide how long -- or short -- to make the lion's mane. Additional panels let you add the lion's eyes, ears, and nose.

In addition to the mouse and lion, an additional free-form template gives kids the chance to make their own design. Kids can place the transparent template over a favorite photograph, and then stick Paperoni pieces to the template's sticky surface to make the photo three-dimensional. Additional jewels and stickers are included for giving designs added sparkle.

What's in the Box
One Paperoni cutter studio, 600 short Paperoni pieces, 32 long Paperoni rods, one two-dimensional mouse template, one three-dimensional lion mold, one two-dimensional free-form template, one tweezers, eight gems, assorted embellishments, and instructions.

The kit includes several templates for eye-catching, elaborate creations. View larger.

The Paperoni pieces come in a variety of colors. View larger.

This review is from: Paperoni Deluxe Studio (Toy)

The first thing to know about this toy is that the pieces are very small and dangerous if you have a young child or small dog that could put these pieces in their mouths. This toy stays at my house (the Granny) so that our younger granddaughter is not in danger of swallowing the little pieces. It had my 5 year old granddaughter entranced. She worked on placing the little pieces of noodles on the sticky surface for over an hour without loosing interest. If you buy the deluxe studio with the paper cutter, the kids really enjoy doing that. The instructions tell you the size to cut of each color. It's easy to follow the instructions. You take the yellow noodle and place it on the sticky surface on the yellow backgroun. If you put the colors in the right area, it will look just like the product says. Of course you can allow for creativity by allowing the children to cut different sizes of paperoni and placing them where ever they'd like. This is a good tool to help with fine motor skills. The refills are rather pricey, so take a look at that before you buy the studio. The studio comes with 2 projects.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the money., November 27, 2009

This review is from: Paperoni Deluxe Studio (Toy)

I bought this for my 5 yr old, who loves arts and crafts.
She loved the paper cutter, but if you push on the paper roll down in the cutter it moves the dial and will change the paper size. So we constantly had to keep checking the paper size.
Pros: Paper cutter was fun for my daughter. Mess free arts and craft project.
Cons: Only comes with 2 templates. You have to continue to spend more money to buy more.
The templates are stick, like tape so the paper will stick on them. Once you make your design, such as the lion or the mouse, you can't play with it because the paper that sticks to the template will fall off. There is nothing fun to do with the design once completed. It can be frustrating as you put all these little rolls of paper together, some of them fall off the the template and you have to try to re-stick them on . At least pixos, they could play around them, hang them on a window or refrigerator.
Bottom line: Don't waste your money to buy an arts and crafts project that at your child can't play with. You will then end up having to pick up these small rolls of paper from the floor.

I bought this for my ten year old who was having his adenoids removed. I needed a few quiet activities and this is what he expressed an interest in. WE loved it! During the World Series, he made a NY Yankees logo, buy putting a template behind the clear adhesive! It came out GREAT and I'm pretty sure that led to them winning the World Series! <;-) The downside, yes, it only comes with two templates for activities,but there is no reason no to get more! We had absolutly no problem at all with the adhesive and his creations have been moved all over the house without a problem!!
The ONLY reason I gave it a 4 star review vs a 5 star review was because it only comes with two templates....thus making it a bit expensive for a craft. We have not tried,but will try, to create our own with glue! There is plenty of paperoni to make more!!!!!!
