Review on Super Perler Beads Crafting Activity by Todd Foster

My son loves Perler Beads, but his sisters' sets always have a "girly" theme (flowers, hearts, etc.). When we saw this set we knew it would make a great Christmas gift. It contains more than enough beads to make many different Mario patterns and my 7 year old followed the instructions with no difficulty and made great creations. The only thing that confuses me is that there is nothing included in the kit to store the beads and the box itself is not suitable for long-term storage. Another very similar Mario set is on sale, which comes in a bucket, which I recommend instead (we just didn't get it because it wasn't available at the time).
