Aquabeads Beginner’s Studio Kids Crafts and Activities, Complete Bead Art Kit for Ages 4+

Love it had a case. Wish I would’ve gotten more beads thought it came with more but now I have a place to keep them all!

We have the prior version of this and our kids (5 and 2) love making the shapes. With the old one, it's a little tricky to get the shape off the tray once you spray it and it dries - you have to use this peeler to scrape it off and it takes some getting the hang of, but we've been able to make it work.We just got this new version and they changed up the way it works. Instead of spraying it on the tray, letting it dry, and scraping it off, you apparently spray, then flip it onto a separate, flatter plastic drying tray.I say apparently because the instructions are only in pictorial form, not with any text. I understand the value of having it accessible to people in multiple languages or something, but it's super confusing. Do I flip it right after spraying, or wait a while? I *think* it says right away, but honestly, it's hard to understand.Our son made a shape, we flipped it... and half the beads stayed on the original tray, so the whole thing was now broken into pieces, some on one tray and some on the other. We ended up rebuilding the shape on the original tray and just letting it dry there, which is clearly not the intent.It may be that this new system is better, but if it is, we need to figure out how to do it, and it would be much better if Aquabeads had comprehensible instructions.All that said, they still really enjoy making shapes and we'd like to make it work rather than give up - it's a lot of fun for them!

This is a great product and can be very fun! We learned from a failed attempt right away that after spraying you MUST let the thing dry for at least 20 minutes before moving it to the drying tray, and then when you move it let it dry for an HOUR before playing with it. If you try to flip it onto the drying tray right away, it will fall apart. Honestly we don't even move it from the design plate anymore and let it dry on there. We have made a bunch of these and they have all held up very nicely. The little bead dropper is SO handy, do NOT lose that thing!!!!

My kids are really enjoying this. It took one time of trial and error, but then I figured it out. As others have said, this needs much longer to dry than the instructions say. Otherwise, it's been great fun.

Didn’t get all the beads needed for a project it comes with. A little disappointed that you run out of the color of beads needed.

A little difficult to see the picture of what you are supposed to be doing. Definitely need adult help.

3D were not very easy for 6yo but 2D were fun!

Well I was thrilled to get these as a gift to my girls fir Christmas. They WERE supposed to be from Santa, but thanks to whoever is responsible for shipping them; they came unboxed, unbaged, open for everyone to see. Especially at Christmas time!? This blew any surprise... I now have to find a new Santa gift... extremely disappointed.

Ok

Idea molto carina per momenti creativi senza sporcare!Il prodotto fa quello che promette e regala momenti di gioco e stupore ai bambini.Un paio di aspetti:⭐️PennaLa penna è praticamente inutile perché è molto grossolana quando rilascia le palline, mentre per ottenere un buon lavoro bisogna avere la mano ferma come un chirurgo, io ad esempio per le mie creazioni utilizzo uno stecchino per avvicinare la nuova pallina e non spostare tutte le altre.⭐️AsciugaturaIl tempo per far solidificare la creazione non è come scritto di 1 ora, è facile che dopo quel tempo si spezzi il tutto. Io lascio asciugare tutta la notte e inoltre è meglio se dopo qualche ora si gira al contrario in modo da asciugare entrambi i lati.Nel complesso un bel gioco, forse un po’ caro.

Regalato a una bambina di sei anni, si è divertita tanto. Il contenuto è abbastanza corposo e la qualità è indiscutibile rispetto a prodotti di sottomarche. Il prezzo secondo me è un po' eccessivo per il tipo di prodotto ma non si fa certo una brutta figura regalandolo. I bambini si divertono, a prescindere dal prezzo

This comes with a great selection of aquabeads and designs. The only problem is when trying to flip it, it doesn't seem to work and ruins the design. Several people have tried and can't do it.
