Cute Penguin

I bought this for my seven-year-old daughter and she loves it. She needed a lot of help to finish it, but it was a good first sewing project.

Fabulous First Sewing Kit

My daughters just turned 8 and this was their first sewing experience. The precut holes are easy to find even through the super soft fur. There is plenty of thread in case of errors. The completed the penguin and sloth. It was a great experience and they wish Lakeshore offered the whole collection! My only issue was the directions don’t give specific lengths to cut thread for easier sewing, otherwise HIGHLY recommend

Perfect for 8 yr old who likes sewing

Bought this for my granddaughter (age 8) because she enjoys sewing and designing. The needle is blunt enough that she couldn't hurt herself and the holes are pre-cut for the needle to go thru. She really loved doing this project! I personally don't do well with picture-only instructions, but between the 2 of us, we didn't make too many mistakes. My granddaughter loved the activity and the final product. I showed her the pictures of the other Sew Easy animals. She really wanted to do this again, so of course grandmother ordered another one for her!

Cute Concept, but Lacking

My daughter was SO excited to receive this for Christmas. She loves penguins and stuffies - a perfect fit. This says 6+. Let me tell you, I’m 30+ and muttered more four letter words then I’d like to admit helping my daughter. While I get companies save money by having language-less instructions so that they can sell to multiple countries, this is a product that needs instruction!!! The pictures are not clear, and unless you truly are an experienced seamstress there’s no way to know what to do. What was meant as a super fun project for my daughter and I to do together has turned into nothing but frustration. The materials are good, and while we are now on Day 3 of working on this penguin, I can tell regardless of the steps in between, my daughter will still love him.

Perfect Craft Project for 7 year old

This adorable penguin was perfect for my 7 year old granddaughter that loves penguins and crafting. She was able to sew it herself with just a little bit of guidance. The plastic needle and precut holes make it super simple for beginners. The fabric is super soft and the flossing details are adorable. Very cute finished product!

On your own.

This product COULD BE a good way to introduce children to a sewing project, but if you are not an experienced seamstress that can help your child through the assembly and sewing techniques, forget it. The instructions are lacking key information for the steps and types of stitches necessary to finish the craft.
