Sending thank you's is important.
Bought this as a gift for my granddaughter. Her mom is making sure she gives thank you notes when she receives a gift, so this makes it fun. They both like it.

not really worth the money
This is a nice idea but the quality isn't as good as I had hoped for the price. First, the Thank You cards don't fit in the envelopes provided, which is pretty frustrating. Second, the stickers are not really anything nicer than I could make with office labels and a printer. We had fun anyway, but it would have made a lot more sense for me to go to the craft store and buy my own supplies, both in terms of how much I would spend and the quality of what I could get.

I loved the idea that the kids could make thank you ...
I loved the idea that the kids could make thank you cards with a DIY stamp set. The "Thank you" cards are disappointed since there are only 5 of them and the rest are blank cards. The "Thank you" cards do not come with envelopes that fit! The DIY stamps are good idea but the foam stickers keep coming off from the wood block provided. Overall, not happy with the purchase and felt like it was a waste of money.

Good idea, poor execution
This is a great idea, and my 4 year old had so much fun doing it. However, the ink pad is really messy. Our set came with a green pad, and when she was done making her stamps, she was seriously covered in green. It's a miracle she didn't get any on her clothes, to be honest. The kit also only included one wooden block, so if she wanted different stamps, she'd have to use another side of the one block. This is, I believe, where the greatest part of her messy hands happened. But, the idea behind getting a small pre-k child to acknowledge the things and/or people in their lives they are thankful for while creating something themselves is fun. I received this at a discounted price, and I don't think I would have paid full price for this.**Disclaimer: I received this product at a discounted price in exchange for my honest opinion and/or review**

My kids loved getting to make their own stamps with this set
Writing thank you notes is so important. It is a social skill that we need to teach our kids. My kids loved getting to make their own stamps with this set! They looked forward to writing thank yous in cards they had created themselves. I'm quite happy that I bought this!
