Grandkids loved it!Dec 19, 2010
By John I bought this for my grandkids, after remembering how much fun they were when I was a kid. I was not disappointed! They loved them! We made all of them in one evening! I would definitely recommend this product.

fun for an indoor playdateNov 30, 2009
By D. Elefteriadis
"Leftee's Girl"
After leaving my friend's house where we had 5 kids ages 6-9 playing together, I realized how fun shrinky dinks still are! We all got a kick out of watching them shrink. We baked them in shifts so there wasn't crowding around the stove. At 36 i still found joy in it!
My only issue is that some of the colored pencils didn't leave enough color on the "dink". Not sure if it's a defect in those papers or if there's a defect in the pencils. I wish there were more colored pencils also. Other than that, it was a great time.

Great fun to do with kids. They love watching them shrink. It's fun to have an activity to do with my niece and nephew that I used when I was little. A lot of fun.

Wow!Dec 20, 2011
By Tasha Prefect I bought in anticipation of having seven granchildren (ages 4-14) over at the same time. I wanted to do these as a kid, but never did. I wasn't really sure what to expect or if the kids would like them. Ha! They loved them. I figured the bug ones would be popular so I bought two sets. We went through both of them, the Peace and Love Jewelry set as well as a bunch of plain sheets. The pre-cut sets are great. It was a fast and easy way to introduce all of the kids to the Shrinky Dinks. Then after they had done a lot of these, we showed them how things could be traced or drawn free-hand which the bigger kids loved and helped them get creative. I had also purchased a Klutz book which had lots of pictures for them to trace.
I also liked that this kit and the jewelry kit included accessories to make something out of the shrunk pieces. We made charm bracelets, earrings, necklaces, bugs with big cleaner legs and keychains. I promised the kids I would get more so we could do it again! As an activity for so many kids it turned out better than I had hoped. I already have more kits and plain sheets ordered.
The pieces from this kit definitely shrunk. I was hoping they wouldn't just end up a little smaller and they didn't! I can't say much about the colored pencils that came with this kit as we used them along with others we already had. But, the ones in this kit are short which were easier for the smaller kids to use as opposed to the full size ones.
As we started to accumulate baked pieces, I gave each kid a small manila envelope for his/her pieces.
