Clarification on confusion about instructions
My daughter has enjoyed Alex Brand craft kits. They can get expensive if you buy multiple small craft kits and this is a good value for as many crafts as you get. We have bought individual Alex Brand craft kits so we are aware of how Alex Brand organizes the crafts. They put all the pieces in a bag with a photo on the bag of what craft the pieces go with. This giant busy box is different. I read the reviews of people being frustrated that there aren’t instructions for each individual craft. Hopefully what I have provided will help others with the confusion of this giant busy box. There are 16 crafts and instructions for 5. Looks like Alex Brand provided instructions for one craft in each category (dough animals, sticker art, tissue art, paper bag puppet and farm animal collage) to show how to do each category- but not each craft individually as they do in their smaller craft kids. In this giant busy box, there are: (4) dough animals- Instructions for one; (2) sticker arts- Instructions for one.; (2) tissue art- Instructions for one; (4) paper bag puppets- Instructions for one; (4) farm animal collages- Instructions for one. To make things organized for us, I opened the box and determined what bag or box went to which craft and I wrote with a sharpie on each bag or box what category it was for. Once my daughter chose the craft she wanted to do, I put the rest of the unopened bags and boxes back into the original box. I have provided a photo of such. The gist is, Alex Brand provided instructions for one craft per category and assume/encourage your child to use their creativity to create the rest. I went to the Alex Brand website to see if they had additional instructions for this giant busy box and the instructions on their website are the exact instruction provided in the box. I then looked at the individual craft kits and found that you can find a craft kit box that may have the exact craft in it with the instructions on how to put it together- that the giant busy box did not provide instructions for. That is a bit time consuming, but another option as well. Hopefully my review will help out with the confusion.
