4.0 out of 5 stars Terrific project - Imaginarium Stingy With The Paint, June 27, 2002

I don't mean to sound grumpy........ but!

This project was done by my 6yr old granddaughter with my supervision. She did NOT put the paint on heavy. We ran out of several colors. I had to varnish it for her so as to try and stretch the varnish. I just made it. It would have been shinier
with a little more paint. We couldn't use the glaze on all of it. Too little.

You have a great product here. At least fill up the paint cups.

Sarah's beautiful butterfly is finished. It held her interest and she enjoyed doing it.

I have purchased 10 other Imaginarium Kits. I HOPE they have more paint.

4.0 out of 5 stars fun and creative, quiet play, February 22, 2002

My daughter (8) liked making this. Drawbacks... it says it's wood and it's really fiber board. She painted the inside of the cover and now the cover is really too tight for her to take it off herself. Use the paint very sparingly, the company is rather stingey with the ammount given.

I usually do not write these reviews, though I do read them. But, this was such a hit at my house. I bought 3 of them and sat the kids down to make christmas presents. Yes, I am ahead of myself, It was a huge success and now I just have to keep the kids from telling what the gifts are, they are so proud of what they did. These are great fun and well worth the price. Seeing is believing.
