Take some colorful plastic beads, put them in a creative design on a pegboard, get your Mom to iron across them with your help, of course, and presto! —off pops a permanent piece of art (and very fun standup toy)!

Kit includes color pattern book, 600 colorful big beads, a sturdy plastic pegboard, and an ironing sheet. This is one addictively fun hobby for creative kids 4 years and up!

I have some dear drawings my boys made when they were very small tucked away in a folder, but they are yellowing by the year. Here is a practical way to cherish those sweet scrawled drawings—on an unbreakable, scratch-resistant, dishwasher-safe plate. Each kit includes all you will need to permanently "frame" your children's drawings. To make a plate, your child draws on special art paper (7 sheets included) with the enclosed 10 markers, or use your own washable felt- tip watercolor markers. The price of the kit includes the processing, but you will pay a $1.00 handling fee for return postage, as well as paying for the stamp for sending in the drawing. Mail in your drawing in the provided envelope and you will receive your child's artwork molded onto a 10" melamine dinner plate within ten working days. A unique gift for grandparents.
