    PlushCraft

    Kristy Pepping said:  PlushCraft makes fabric crafting fun and easy. Use the stylus to punch colorful fabric pieces into pre-made 3D pals. Each puppy in this kit is marked with numbers (like paint by number). The box shows you which number corresponds to which fabric swatch color. The child uses the stylus to punch little fabric pieces into each pre-scored number.

    Sticky Mosaics

    Kristy Pepping said:  Sticky Mosaics craft kits for kids work like paint by numbers, but with sticky tiles and jewels instead of paint that kids use to create a picture on a template. This is a great activity if a child needs to work on fine motor skills and/or learning numbers too.
