I bought this for my niece for her birthday and she sat and did it all afternoon. My niece just turned 7 and could open the box, figure it out and get started with no help from us - which really boosted her confidence. Using a simple numbered legend - like those old paint-by-numbers (but without the mess) - my niece decorated this cute little jewelery box. The great thing about it was that after the craft, she now gets to proudly display it in her bedroom. I was so surprised at what great value this was. For about $20 bucks, my niece got an awesome educational and fun craft with great lasting value. I would totally by from this company again.
