Skillmatics Foil Fun Animals, Foil Art & Craft Kit, Gift for Boys & Girls

We bought this foil art kit as a gift for a child, mainly to keep them entertained without creating a mess. First impressions The set is well organised, and everything is included to get started straight away. It’s compact, which makes it easy to take on trips or use on the go. Ease of use It’s very simple — peel sections and apply the foil. It doesn’t require any glue or extra materials, which makes it genuinely easy for children to use independently. Mess factor (important) This is where it stands out. It really is “no mess” compared to paint or slime-based kits, which makes it ideal for travel or indoor use. Play value It keeps kids engaged for a good amount of time, especially as they see the designs come together quickly. It’s more structured than free-form art, but still creative enough to be enjoyable. End results The finished pictures look bright and colourful, which adds to the satisfaction and makes it feel rewarding. What could be better Limited number of designs Not as reusable as some craft kits Activity time is finite once completed Who this is for / who it isn’t for Good for: • Travel or on-the-go activities • Mess-free play • Younger children learning crafts Not ideal for: • Long-term reusable activities • Kids who prefer free drawing/painting Conclusion A simple and genuinely mess-free craft activity that works well for keeping kids entertained, especially when travelling. It’s not a long-lasting activity, but for convenience and ease of use it does exactly what it promises.

A fun activity! My daughters thoroughly enjoyed themselves once they got the hang of applying the foil to best effect. Probably best suited for children 6 and older (for independent use). Everything included and materials are of good quality. Lots of stickers and foil left over to use for another activity.

An excellent craft activity for children of different ages - easy yet allows children to be imaginative

Took a while to get the hang of this for my little one with whitch way to have the foil and alot of ruined pictures but once we got the hang of it was a great activity. My little one is 6 so did need support with this but I do think it's a great activity to do as a family and there are plenty of foils and characters to play with. Spent roughly half hour on this so a good time. I brought this around Christmas when on offer and i would say it was great value for money. The size is alot bigger that i thought it would be there like placemat size.

Perfect art and craft for my grandaughter. Good value.

We haven’t opened these yet as putting by for Christmas. But my girls (5 & 2) have the other themes and love them. Plenty of fun creating scenes and foiling the sticky shapes. Mess free but I do detest all the little bits of paper that get peeled off.

My son has this kit and wanted to get one for his friends birthday present as he loves it so much. These are great for keeping young ones entertained, easy to use and relatively mess free (apart from stickers backings and empty foil sheets when used up). Handy for keeping in the car too for entertaining when out and about, i.e. restaurants. There is a good variety of coloured foils so the kids can get creative. Very good quality too. Love these.

Excellent product, granddaughters spent hours making pictures with the foil. Everything in the box was well made and looked good quality material. Great value

Fun activity for kids who love to be creative! My 4 year old niece spent hours being entertained by this.

Our students love these for camp projects!

I recently got the Skillmatics Art & Craft Activity - Foil Fun Animals Mega Pack for my nephew, and it’s been a huge hit! This kit offers a fantastic mess-free way for kids to explore their creativity and keep busy. Each foil sheet sticks easily onto the animal designs, allowing little hands to create shiny, colorful art without the need for glue, paint, or any cleanup! The designs are adorable and fun, especially for kids who love animals. It’s easy to follow along, so even younger children can feel independent as they complete each piece. Plus, it’s an activity they can revisit, as there are multiple sheets included in the pack. Overall, this pack is perfect for travel, quiet time at home, or as a gift. I would highly recommend it for parents and guardians looking for an engaging, mess-free, and quality art kit for kids.

My grandchildren absolutely loved this kit! It kept them busy for hours. The only negative comment is there was no black or white foil included for Santa's boots or beard. The kids didn't care. Santa's got a blue face!

A lot of kids' crafts look easy, but actually take a certain amount of skill or dexterity. So the kids get frustrated and I wind up doing most of the work, which defeats the whole purpose. This ISN'T one of those! Once you figure it out, it's super easy. My 6 year old has been doing it all weekend, spending up to 3 hours at a time working them. She loves it! She sometimes needs help getting the stickers punched out, but otherwise she can do it all herself. I don't mind helping though, because it's actually kind of fun. She did wish for a few more colors, like black for Santa's boots or brown for the animals. But that's really our only complaint!
