When my mum had my little sister I brought her one of these Baby Art Magix Box kits, I actually brought 2 because the week after my mate had her little boy and I thought this would be perfect for both new mums. The idea of it is that you press your babys hand or foot into the clay and let it set, giving you a memory of the smallness of your baby that is supposed to last forever. The kit looked BRILL on the box and my poor sister wasn't even 5 days old before I was getting her into weird positions so I could get a footprint off her! It's a shame it's not as good in real life, for something that is supposed to be so special this is really ...  Read the complete review

Like most new parents, when our son was born, my husband and I wanted to document the start of his little life in as many ways as possible. We have about 1000 photographs of him in exactly the same position, videos of him burping and sneezing, and our Facebook statuses continue to bore all our friends with up-to-the-minute updates of his progress. So when we saw these for sale, we thought it would be a lovely way of remembering how tiny he was when first born, and more ammunition for speeches on his wedding day. These types of commemorative items are becoming more and more popular amongst new parents. (We actually bought three tins, from Babies R Us in store, ...  Read the complete review

I have always made sure that I have got memories of my childrens baby years and this art box was one thing that I bought for my son when he was born ready to put into his baby box. This cost me £7.99 from argos and in the book it showed a picture of a curcular tray with clay in it which had an imprint of a foot in it. I thought this would be a good keepsafe of my childs size when he was born because they grow so fast. When I got this home I took it out of the box to see how I was meant to do it. I was expecting the clay to be in the tray ready for me to do the imprint but instead it was in a plastic pack that you had to mould yourself, you do ...  Read the complete review

I'll come to the point straight away - this product is a real disappointment. We were given this by my parents when my daughter was born. It's a beautiful idea: preserve forever a footprint or handprint of your little darling. Unfortunately, this kit doesn't live up to the promise in terms of practicality or aesthetics. It comes as a round, shiny metal tin, together with modelling clay and a plastic stand. The problems start straight away when you open the tin. The clay comes as a small block that you have to flatten into the tin yourself. Somebody somewhere isn't very generous with the clay, so getting it to evenly cover the bottom of ...  Read the complete review
