About this deal

When you’re desperately looking for the best presents for eight year old girls, there’s so much on offer, it starts to blow your mind a bit! I have to say I had two very excited children at this point. In the set you get two magic mould trays; one with several fruit shapes and another with various 3D jewel shapes. Take a bottle of the “liquid magic” and slowly squeeze it into the mould design you wish to use. The liquid pours slowly, so we didn’t have any spillages. Next you choose the gems to add into the the mould, arranging them and pushing them under the liquid with the stirring tool. The final step is to place the mould inside the central shell light on the creation station, close the lid and press the button. It is quite exciting to watch the flashing light start up on the shell, whilst you wait for the beep alerts to let you know that it’s all finished. There are three main types of craft kit available and all use a liquid gel that hardens in 3 minutes using UV light. The main difference between the kits is the tool used to emit UV light. The key thing to think about is the age of your child. The torch sets allow the resin gems to be cured in situ where as the magic clam shell requires the moulds to be lifted and placed inside them!

Extra’s– A small pair of jewellery pliers are useful for getting the jump rings through the gem holes so you can attach them to chains and bracelets What Do We Think Of The Gemex Craft Sets If they’re anything like my boys, this game will cause a bit of a giggle with your kids. Because which child doesn’t like talking about poo, eh? In this Skid Markz drawing game the sneaky dog is a true ‘pup-casso’ of poop! You have to draw a word card and then move the embarrassed dog around the board to assemble your ‘master-pooce’. If the other players can guess the creation from your Skid Markz, then you win. Sounds hilarious! LEGO FRIENDS SCHOOL HOUSE

All the kits will contain 1-2 bottles of liquid magic, a UV light source, a themed gem mould, decorations for your gems, assorted jewellery/accessory clips and attachments, stirring tool and instructions. Overall, this set is very easy to use and will get the creative juices flowing. Initially it took us around 30 minutes to set up the creation station, cutting open bags and filling storage compartments etc. and reading through the instruction manual to fully understand how it all worked, but once done on the next use you are ready to go straight away. Our eight-year-old tester absolutely loved it. She has spent hours considering her deigns and decorations. The set can make up to 100 gems before having to buy new gel and decorations. Choose one of the 30 fun pictures and colour in. Place your picture into the unit, then slide the button from left to right and watch your picture come to life! My children are 8, 5 and 2 so I waited until my younger boy was asleep (a compromise to them all being asleep) before getting the Gemex set out. On receipt of the product and after scanning over the box I realised that there was a strong chance that I would be creating these jewels in secret when the kids were asleep (I’m not even joking) as it looked fantastic!

The pink and purple box is pretty large and pleasantly easy to unbox and set up, with clear and step-by-step instructions. There is a section which refers to an alternative piece of equipment which we do not have in this set, and that was the only thing that sent us into a panic of wondering what we were doing wrong. Bath time just got a lot more fun with this Kiss Naturals Bath Bomb Making Kit. There’s enough organic ingredients to make 8 awesome bath bombs that are ready in 2 hours. No measuring needed, just mix, blend, press down and let rest. Simples! It’s a great STEM toy for kids to have fun whilst learning about science.
