Clothes peg cuties by Klutz Chicken Socks are fun fun fun! what a brilliant idea to brighten you little ones rainy day! This activity pack allows you to unleash your creativity and best of all everything you need to create your new pals come included.

Whats included:
* a 22 page instruction booklet
* glue
* 3 Pegs complete with facial feautures
* Multicoloured wool
* Chenille hair in a variety of colours
* 3 flower petal, for ceating skirts and dresses
* a small bag of sequins

How to use:
Not too bad actually. All your craft essentials are included meaning you wont need to buy anything else. you can create up to 3 clothes peg dollies. The instruction book explains how to create them and what designs you can follow; with a choice of creting either a ballerina, a princess, a mermaid or indeed all three. The instructions are very straightforward and therefore easy for you children to follow. However, certain elements like attaching hair, etc. can be quite fiddley and so for smaller children i would advise supervision. The pack contains all you need and so is relativley mess-free but i would suggest useing a tray with newspaper on to empty contents of the pack and start the project as this ensures children wont end up getting glue and sequins all over the place.

Disadvantages:
You dont get a lot for you money, ie. you can only create 3 dollies, having said that theres nothing stopping you purchasing a cheap pack of wooden pegs and adapt the instructions to suit.

Advantages:
Hours of fun creating Princesses, Mermaids and Ballerinas that can actually be used, giving the added bonus of you children helping you with hanging the laundry. This product would make a brilliant stocking Filler or present and will give hours of joy.

Reccomendation:
Highly recommended.

Summary: Will keep the fun going until laundry time
