Kidzaw Master Kitz The Starry Night ~ Review

Since my girls love to paint and create their own artistic pictures, I knew they would enjoy creating a masterpiece from Kidzaw.com by using the Master Kitz The Starry Night kit.

The Starry Night kit came with the following:

• Custom Acrylic Paints (child friendly)

• Custom Oil Pastels (child friendly)

• 1 van Gogh Roller specially designed to replicate van Gogh’s active stroke

• 1 re-usable Starry Night Cyprus Stencil

• 1 standard paint roller

• 2 pieces deluxe art paper

• 1 low tack “Mesmerizing Stars” sticker sheet

• Fun, easy-to-understand van Gogh learning materials

• Easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions

My daughters decided to work on this project together. They took out all of the supplies from the box and set everything up before starting. My oldest read through each step of the directions while she and my seven year old worked on each step together.

They put on the “reusable” sticker stars, but after they had painted the poster board, they could not get the stickers to come off easily. The poster board ripped and some of the stickers also started to rip. I’m not sure if they used too much paint or if they were to wait for it to dry before taking the stickers off. The instructions never said to let the paint dry on any of the steps, so they kept on working without letting anything dry.

After taking the stickers off, they then used the supplied stencil to make the houses. They both enjoyed this part because it was simple and fast. After using the stencil, they used the oil pastels to create the stars and shade in some of the foreground.

Although, it didn’t turn out exactly how it supposed to, my girls did enjoy creating this work of art. They also read through the included pamphlet about Vincent Van Gogh and was able to learn more about the artist.

They did have a lot of fun using the kit and working together. They said they would love to try out more of the kits and create more masterpieces. They are going to try to make The Starry Night one more time with the other piece of poster board that was included to see if they can somehow get it to turn out a little bit better.

I though this kit was a great way to introduce children to various artists and be able to create the artists famous works. The kits would make a great gift for someone that loves art. These kits would also be great to use in a homeschool when studying different artists. It would be great to have a collection for you and your child to enjoy over the years.

My girls would give this kit 4 stars since the stars ripped and the directions were not clear on if they should let the paint dry before going to the next step.

Overall – they loved creating this masterpiece and would love to create more!They have already asked to get another kit to try out. They may find one under the Christmas tree.
