Product Description

Editorial Review

How can your kids make funky, practical art while learning all about everyone's favorite insects? Beeswax Candles & Bee-havior spreads the word about the little honeymakers and includes five brightly colored, 8-inch-by-8-inch sheets of their finest wax, ready for candle-making. The instructions are clear and simple while leaving room for creativity; the only parental supervision needed is in cutting the wicks (and lighting the finished products, of course--beeswax burns hot!). --Rob Lightner


Product Description

This Creativity for Kids activity kit lets you make bee-utiful beeswax birthday, decorative and taper candles in just a few easy steps. Simply roll the colorful layers of wax around the wicking then decorate the candle with assorted shapes that you cut out from the wax sheets. Kit comes with 6 sheets of beeswax in assorted colors, wick and illustrated instructions. Imported.

4.0 out of 5 stars Creates an enjoyable product, July 16, 1999
By A Customer
Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:4.0 out of 5 stars 
Beeswax is a wonderful craft item. It is long burning, smokeless, and has a gentle, natural fragrance. This kit will only provide enough wax for one large candle or a very few small ones. Personally, I prefer the large candle as it lasts longer. The instructions are clearly written and allow plenty of room for a kids creativity to caome out. As for the information about bees, there is a sheet of basic facts and 4 recipes. Frankly, if your goal is to learn about bees, a better investment would be an age appropriate book. This would make a good gift paired with a book like The Magic Schoolbus Inside a Beehive or an insect identification guide.

4.0 out of 5 stars Art plus fire -- creative, exciting, & child-friendly, August 28, 2002
By anonymous "amazon3111" (San Diego, CA USA) - See all my reviews
Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars 
I bought this for my 6-yr old boy's birthday. After a few minutes of my explaining the basic concept (wrap the wax around the wick) he quickly made several really neat candles. I have two other boys, 7-1/2 & 9, who loved it, and I'm planning to buy more. They all had so many ideas of how to make the candles--combines art with fire -- great combination! The candles burn clean and have a pleasant smell.

However, I'd love to find a cheaper source of colored beeswax. I can see this being a continuous source of enjoyment, and a great Bday present for other kids.

I don't recall learning much about bees from this kit, but I didn't read the couple of scraps of paper very thoroughly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Craft, June 25, 2004

Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This book is a great introduction for making candles. While it is targeted towards kids, I had a lot of fun with it. I've been doing crafts for quite a while now, but this was my first candle making effort. The beeswax sheets were easy to use and the candles turned out better than I had hoped. If you are looking for an easy way to get into candle making or just want to make a few for gifts, this is a great way to get started.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cool for adults too!
My kids & I made these. It was a lot of fun. Don't know if they burn well as we have them displayed as works of art!:) Great for beginners.

5.0 out of 5 stars super
Looking at the other reviews, the only thing I can recommend is that if the kit has been sitting around and is hardened, you might want to warm it just a bit to make the wax... Read more
