Review on Craft Science by Klutz: Unleash Your Inner Crafter's Potential by Kevin Mills

Bought for 12 year old daughter. It made 10 soaps. For the price, it should have been a larger kit or a cheaper price. Not for younger children, at least not alone. After the first one, we quickly realized that we had to work very quickly to fill out the form. Just a few seconds after heating the soap, the soap in the mold will become mushy. To get a smooth, perfect soap, you need to quickly add glitter and fragrance, then pour. Concerning. The girls could help stir the paint and maybe add glitter. But I had to work so fast they honestly couldn't be super practical. They did the first one alone and weren't fast enough and I knew I had to step in to help. We developed the microwave method, which was much easier than steaming on the stove. You need to microwave and stir the cement in 5-second bursts. Until it melts well. The girls have lost interest in this part because it takes time to microwave. In general they liked the set, but actually there should have been more shapes. The installation takes 30 minutes. Two people cannot do the same figure at the same time. So the cat was popular, but it would take 1.5. Hours for 3 girls to water a cat. Do you see the problem? Luckily we only had 3 girls and they were flexible in their choice of uniforms. I was able to use leftover soap to melt for my son, resulting in 10 soaps. The aroma is soft and pleasant, coconut papaya. Not overwhelming at all.
