4 out of 5 stars Great for kids -Fun for Adults   January 6, 2009

We ordered this item for our 6 year old daughter, and she loves it!! It is just like when we were kids,but you get to design your own drawings. It does seem to work better with colored pencils rather then markers. The first few dinks my daughter did with crayola brand markers (NOT WASHABLE) and the ink kept rubbing off even after baking. If you want to use markers, Sharpie brand seem to work the best (We use them to outline the drawing.) I only wish that this book came with a small selection of accessories (ie: key loops, jewelry hooks, and thread), like some of the other Klutz activity books do.


5 out of 5 stars Fun projects, well-made book   June 1, 2008

This is a great book for ages 8 through 14. The shrinky-dink projects range from easy to very hard and there is enough variety of pictures from which to choose. The book itself is very sturdy.

I remember doing shrinky dinks as a kid and decided to give them to all the children in our family who were gathering for the holidays. It was a huge hit! There were children ages 5-12 and this was something they all enjoyed. The 5 year old needed some help tracing the pictures, but was able to color them in with colored pencils and do some of the cutting out. I am really pleased with the book and the response that it received. It was a memorable holiday for all!

We had great fun with shrinky dinks when my children were little, so I purchased this book and material for my grandchildren. We had a blast making shrinky dinks and it brought back a lot of memories!


5 out of 5 stars ongoing fun for kids from ages 5 to at least 12   December 2, 2007

I bought this book/kit a few years ago, very excited to share with my daughters something that I played with as a kid. The book comes with about 8 sheets of special shrink plastic. You will need ordinary colored pencils and it would be great to have a Sharpie, preferably a fine point one, and a pair of small scissors, as well as an oven and cookie sheet. The book is full of small color images; the kids trace an image with a Sharpie or black colored pencil, color it in with colored pencils, cut it out carefully (parents might want to help ages 7 and under) and bake it. The plastic shrinks, which is great fun for the kids to watch through the oven door. The plastic curls up at first and you're SURE it won't work but it does! If you want a hole make sure you punch it with a hole punch BEFORE you bake; otherwise it's too late.
