Hi, Welcome back to Toddler Craft. Please subscribe to my Toddler Craft newsletter. Sign up to the left. It's full of more fun activities, parenting information and crafts! Thanks for visiting!

I thought I would write a few posts about some of the fun crafty gifts my kids got!  As you have probably guessed we love to do crafty things and this year they got a few great kindergarten craft kits for the holidays!  These are NOT paid reviews, they are products I thought were really fun and wanted to share.

The Kindergarten Craft kit I want to share today is the Martian Matter -Alien Maker.  It’s a really fun set that my kids have spent hours and hours with.  It comes with everything it needs and no batteries are required (yeah!).  It is really simple, after taking my kids through it  a few times both my 4 and 7 year old could play with it independently.

To create the Aliens, you push dough in the alien maker (it’s like play dough) and pick your alien’s head and body.  Then you push it down to cause an imprint.  After you create your imprint, you pick colors of “lunar Lava” to pour into your Alien imprint.  Then you put a thin layer of dough on top of your alien and in 5 minutes it is dry and ready to play with.  It is great that the kids can create all different types of aliens in varying colors. The set comes with multiple alien heads and bodies to switch around.   The kids love it!
