With this kit, kids have everything they need to make colorful embroidery buttons. The finished buttons are then transformed into button badges or hair bands that make great gifts for friends or family. The instructions show how to execute the two basic stitches most often used in embroidery - the cross stitch and the back stitch. Then it's just a matter of choosing a floss color to your liking, threading the plastic needle, and either following one of the design templates included or designing your own. Children will exercise creativity, develop nimble fingers, and enjoy the simple pleasures that focus and concentration can bring, particularly when the end result makes them proud. The kit includes 1 embroidery hoop, 5 different colored spools of embroidery floss, 1 sheet of embroidery canvas, 2 plastic needles, 8 buttons, 1 button maker, 1 ring-shaped stencil, 4 pins, and 1 elastic hair band, enough to make 4 badges and 4 hair bands.
