My daughter received this as a birthday gift and enjoys making the window art. It's easy enough to use w/ one caveat: You can only make one project at a time (if you want outlines that are on different pages) without disassembling the the book and it takes about 24 hours for the project to dry.

GREAT CRAFT FOR ALL AGES OVER 7

This is a great craft with minimum set up or clean up. My son has made many of these window clings and I enjoy making them, too. We have given the set as a gift and kids love them! The paint tubes are small and if you do many of these, you will want to order the refill paints. Once kids get the hang of it, they use much less paint but to start with, most over do it. There is also a Christmas version of this book which is a nice addition if you enjoy this craft.

Best craft project

My 6 year old son received this kit for Christmas and he loves it. He has already completed the dinosaur page for his room and a hummingbird, frog and butterfly for his sister's room. We discovered that is is much easier to color in the designs if you let the black outline dry overnight. My son is very artistic and loves to change the designs using his own creative instincts. He loves to create his own window art too. He is now saving his money for the refill kit.

Very cool

I got this for my 7 year old daughter. I think I like it just as much as she does! It's so much fun. We have made fish to go on our bathroom mirror and leaves to put on the windows in the fall, and all sorts of other things. They come off easily when you are done with them. They are a little messy - my daughter kept forgetting not to use too much paint at first, but she got the hang of it. We liked it so much, we bought the refill kit.

I did this window art with my 4 year old daughter and she loved it! I traced the picture and she filled it in with the different colored paint. The projects turn out great and she is VERY proud.

Great creative play

Now, making beautiful window art is as simple as squirting mustard on a hot dog– and about a million times more fun. This creative kit comes with six bottles of peel-off window colors and a 59-page, spiral-bound instruction book with more than one hundred ready-to-trace designs. Simply trace a design in black outline and squirt the window colors to fill it in. You can even blend the paints to make your own colors. Then peel off your design and stick it on any glass surface you like– a window, mirror, shower door– you name it! If you change your mind about where you want it, just peel and stick again and again. The finished designs won't fade, melt or mar windows in any way– so parents love them, too!

Worth every penny 2006-06-26
My granddaughter started making this window art at 6yrs old very successfully. If a child that young has any problem you can do the black outline for them and then let them fill in the colors. www.klutz.com had both the regular window art & the christmas window art book available online along with several paint refill selections to order. Including silver & gold outline colors to use instead of the black and fill in colors not included with the books. Also on most of the webpages for each window art item there is a "Click here for an exclusive window art design" link you can click for a whole page of designs to print out that aren't in the books. Each page is different and even include lots of designs for the different holidays.
My granddaughter is now 8 and a window art devotee.
Enjoy!
ps: can you tell I like making them too?! Fun to do together.

Very Fun and Versatile 2006-01-06
I originally bought the Christmas kit 2 years ago and each year have added a few more pieces of "art" to my windows. However, now my 5 year old is producing his own charming drawings, which I trace into window art. This is when the fun really started. He loves seeing his art work on the windows and now all the relatives want some. If you let the black outline dry younger kids can fill in.

Buy the refill kit! 2005-12-15
Cause this is so much fun you're kids will not want to stop making projects!

Great toy 2005-09-06
Great toy for older kids. My 9 year old daughter loves it because she is really good at it. My 6 year old loves it and wants to make the creations, but doesn't have quite the coordination yet to make the designs as well as my 9 year old. So, I would greatly recommend this toy for older kids.

	Dora the Explorer Mr. Face Plush Backpack Review: My daughter is a big Dora fan and uses this backpack to carry around her favorite toys and books, which is why I gave it 5 stars for educational value. My friend's daughter has it as well, and love hers too. We've had it 6 months now and it's holding up just fine. The map opens up for an added bonus. My daughter likes to wear it and sing the backpack song from the show.
	Star Wars Episode III: Darth Vader Voice Changer Helmet Wow, do I ever wish they had this out when I was a kid! I bought it, and my wife, kids and I have all been playing with it. It has a chest box with several buttons that plays about 5 of Darth's quotes from the movies, or you can switch it to voice changer. The voice changer is fun! It has 3 different levels of depth for changing the voice. ... A must for Star Wars Geeks!!!!
