Review on First Sewing Craft Kit by ALEX Toys by Jared Barit

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not suitable for children Good for crafts

So I love Alex products. I bought this sewing kit along with some pets you color in and a great sting farm kit for my 18 month old baby. All were gifts from Grandmother from Heaven. You will receive these gifts right after Thanksgiving. My daughter was SUPER excited when she got rid of it and wanted to use it right away. She quickly became frustrated and disappointed. It was impossible to tie. The thread is more like fine yarn. He is very fat. I tried it, my 16 year old tried it and of course my 8 year old who got the kit tried it. We finally managed to thread it using one of the needle threaders included in the kit. And the needle threader broke. Then the second needle threader broke when we tried the next project of making a pouch. To complete the bag I pulled out my good quality needle threader. Which is also broken. After all the threaders were broken, the set was complete. Basically she made a test pattern on yellow felt and on both sides of the bag tape. Nothing works without something to thread the needle with this yarn. My daughter is very disappointed. How can she even learn the basics of sewing when she can't even learn how to thread a needle herself? When she can't thread the needle at all.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Reliability
