Looked good quality, packaging very sturdy. Great it’s a chance to create a unique design. The instructions were very clear and concise. My daughter worked out what to do very quickly. She loved it. It taught her patience and how to work with small crystals. It kept her off her screens for hours. She loved it as she is into arts and crafts. The big Unicorn took her about 4-5 hours as she wanted to take her time. She loved her creations as she loves creating. She hasn’t really gone back to them since creating them. I think she doesn’t want to ruin them. There are lots of jewels so you could redo them if you wanted to. She wasn’t really interested in the cards included. Kept her entertained and off her electronics for hours. She really enjoyed doing this and we will probably buy another Crystalverse set. She enjoyed the opportunity to produce her own unique design. I liked that it kept her quiet and off electronics. I believe it should have a higher age rating maybe up to 14. It requires skill and concentration. Good quality models to work with lots of wax/glue and crystals. I believe it is good value as the amount of crystals you could do each animal 3-4 times. I would buy this as my daughter really enjoyed it as it was a product she was interested in. I would recommend as it helps motor skills and is a change from playing with screens. It was a great value product with lots of hours of use in it. Great value, promotes good hand to eye coordination. Very cute characters you want to make them look amazing. Age appropriate great for children who are into art. Also good got those who aren’t. Claire Sweter-Millar – Louisa 9 Years

It was a much bigger box than I expected and looked high quality. It was very interesting to combine a craft and things to play and collect with afterwards. They are designed very well to a high standard. The instructions were much smaller than I expected. Although it told you everything you needed to know, the writing was very small and hard to read. My daughter did understand how to use the pieces. She had done pictures with crystals before in the same style so understood the concept but was excited to try it on a model. She did enjoy it for a while but it took quite a while to do so she started to get frustrated and just wanted to be done with it. To be honest she wasn’t really interested in creating Crystalcorn’s stories. She enjoys the crafts but doesn’t play with toys as much anymore so mainly wanted them to sit and be looked at afterwards. We completed it in a couple of sittings because it was it was a lot of the same thing, just sticking the jewels and she wanted to do something else. She was happy to be done with it and liked to show her sister that it was done. Now they are completed my daughter just likes them as ornaments. She liked the collector’s cards because they are shiny and so says they are rare. It kept her entertained for a while but it isn’t something we can do together so she got a bit lonely and wanted to give up for a while. She likes the ideal of collecting Crystalverse products but doesn’t want to make anymore. She liked the sparkles and how fancy they looked when they were done. The quality was very high. The age was suitable but the craft and doing it is more for the older age as it can take a long time and be quite fiddley but the playing with them is more for a younger age. It was very high quality, I was very pleased. I think it is very high quality but I don’t think I would pay £25 for it as it is a craft and my child wouldn’t do much with it afterwards. I think it is too expensive to buy as the item wouldn’t get played with afterwards. It might be worth it for other children if they were more interested in playing with it. I would recommend as I think that it is a great item that some children could spend hours with that they could then play with. Excellent quality which can be made and then played with, just not quite right for my child. Very happy with the item but the once done it wasn’t really something my child wants to play with anymore.

Lovely idea and design. Instructions easy to follow and very easy to use. My daughter understood how to use the pieces and get creative. My daughter loved creating her own design. Once she had created them she enjoyed playing with them. It took about an hour to decorate the Unicorn and a day for the glue to dry. My daughter was really proud of her designs. My daughter still plays with them now creating her own stories. My daughter loved the fact on the collector’s cards. This certainly did keep her entertained. My daughter now wants us to buy more from the Crystalverse collection. My daughter really enjoyed being able to make her own designs. I like that my daughter can make her own designs. Age suitability 6 plus good, but needed a bot of help from an adult. Quality is good and good idea. This is good value for money. I would buy this as my daughter enjoyed the product. I would recommend as it is a great idea and product. My daughter loved this product and the idea is great that children can make their own designs. Sarah Rawcliffe – Adalynn 6 Years
