Orb Factory Robot & Princess Palace Review and GIVEAWAY

**I was sent the product featured below free of charge in order to give my honest review.  No other compensation was received.  My thoughts and opinions are 100% my own.**


 

My kids absolutely love crafts.  They love crafts of every kind.  I am surprised that my 9 year old son loves them as much as he does but he would rather do a craft than play with many toys.  He has a very creative mind.  My 6 year old daughter is the same way.  She loves girly things and loves crafts.  She also likes to follow her brother.  So when I had the opportunity to do a review for the Orb Factory I jumped at the chance. When they arrived it seemed like Christmas to them.  As my kids and I sat down to work on them they were so excited it seemed as if I couldn't get the boxes open fast enough. 



The Robot Sticky Mosiacs was so perfect for my son. 



The Robot Sticky Mosiacs Kit includes:
  • 5 designs
  • 10 FlipMotion™ stickers
  • 5 stands
  • 1200+ sticky foam pieces
 Both kits we reviewed were kind of like the color by number pictures in coloring books.  Each piece has little boxes with numbers in the box.  You look at the instructions and find the coordinating sticker and put it over the number on your craft.  So if it was a number "1" you would find the number one sticker and place it over the number one on your robot.   The instructions for this craft were very clear and easy to read.


He had a ton of fun working on this.  It was perfectly age appropriate.  He really liked the fact that he could be independent on this craft. 

  


He actually loved this project so much he wanted to do them all at once but I put some of them away for the next day to spread it out a little.  Once my kids get started on stuff they usually don't want to stop.  They can be pretty determined.


Here was his finished robot that he had made.  It also had a really fun FlipMotion™ sticker to go right at the end of the ray gun.  He thought that was pretty cool.


My daughter worked on the Princess Palace Treasure Box Kit.


The Princess Palace Treasure Box Kit Includes:
  • 3 jewelry boxes
  • 575+ jewels

 The only thing that I had to help her with was putting the spires on the lids.  It was also the only part in the instructions that says it needs a little parent help.  It was true because she definitely knows her numbers and did very well doing it herself.  It was also very age appropriate for her.  She really enjoyed decorating the boxes.  She was also so excited that she can keep stuff in the boxes.


She did very well looking at the instructions and finding the coordinating jewels for the coordinating numbers.


Here is her first finished box.  She felt very accomplished that she was able to finish this box all by herself.   The instructions on this craft were easy.  They were easy enough that she was able to read them herself.

 
If you are looking for a fun craft for your children then I highly recommend these products.  The Orb Factory also has many other great products to choose from.
