Melissa & Doug Stamp-a-Scene-Fairy Garden | Arts & Crafts | Age 4+ | Gift for Boy or Girl

I think when you buy from this brand you know you're getting well made decent quality toys. Loads of stamps to hold your childs attention and imagination building up a scene or picture.I've knocked one star off because I'd have loved their to be more variation in the stamp colours... I know you get pencils but it's predominantly a stamp set which is what my child was most excited for. Or even just add a black stamp pad so that we don't have to have a blue outlined tree for example!

Ink pads are not great.No lid/cover (which was mentioned in reviews now that I am looking through them)You need to put a bit more pressure than expected and stamp on ink pads a few times to get any ink transfer. You will get the shape of the stamp frame itself partially transferred too. Kiddo was not super impressed as she could not get them to work nicely herself.The colour pencils are of not a great quality either.

Nice girly stamps.One downside storage once opened is a nightmare, you will need a case

This is a great set. The only downside is that it doesn’t come in a proper box with a lid, so once opened has to be transferred into plastic container or biscuit tin for example in order to keep it all together and not lose the stamps or them make a mess on other things.

This is a nice set of stamps, so many different characters, you can stamp a complete farmyard and with the pencils colour it. Comes with a nice box, sturdy, practical, my kids love it!

This is a Christmas present for my 5 year old artistic daughter so it has not been played with yet. From what I can see though it looks to be of very good quality. There are many stamps in the kit of different sizes too and I can see my daughter having much fun with this. Only snag that I can see so far is there is only two different colour inks to stamp with. It would of been even better if there was more of an ink colour selection to choose from within the kit. She could create lots of different coloured scenes then rather then scenes based on just two colours. Of course you can buy ink separate on its own and these stamps look durable being made from wood so they can potentially last awhile.

Brilliant should be lots of fun

Bought for a 3 year old,She's loving it, easy to use, easy to stamp, the ink was NOT dry as some others have mentioned. Tried it myself and seems quite satisfying. Will be purchasing the different sets in the future!
