Summer Birthday Bash! Ebeanstalk Link'n Loop Review






With two summer birthdays on the horizon, I have spent lots of time searching for the perfect gifts for my kids.  One of my favorite online toy shops for all my special occasions is Ebeanstalk.  You are able to search their toys by age to find just the right gift for your child. From baby gifts to learning toys for older children, its all available at Ebeanstalk.







For our review, we received the Link'n Loop, which is a scarf knitting craft set. My daughter loves crafts, and she has been wanting to try knitting, so she was pretty excited.  The kit comes with 400 yards of yarn, a pair of plastic circular needles, and one completed loop. It also comes with instructions which are supposed to be easy. But to be honset, we had a hard time getting started. My daughter was getting very frustrated because the loops in the yarn kept slipping. Finally, my mother-in-law stopped by to help. She's been knitting for years and was able to figure it out. Now my daughter has the knack and is moving along. She is about half way done and has been working on it for a week. What I like about this craft kit is that it gives kids hours of fun. But if you don't know anyone with at least a little background in knitting, you might have a hard time.
