A bit over priced for the content . I purchased this as a Christmas gift for my 6 year old niece. I was excited about it because I love shrinky dinks and she loves horses. I thought it was a good activity we could do together. There just weren't too many horses to choose from. As a 6 year old she colors quickly and had an entire sheet completed in about 10 minutes. The kit would be better if there were stencils you could actually use over and over, but they are pre-printed sheets so once you use them they are gone.

Nostalgic fun . My daughter received this for her birthday and has had so much fun coloring the shrinky dinks and then watching them in the oven as they curl and shrink. I think they have gotten better than when I was a kid because they come out totally flat. This kit also includes items to make the shrinky dinks into purse decorations, necklaces, and rings. We'll definitely by buying more kits!

Shrinky Dinks I Love Horses Opinions
My daughter loved this product! . This Christmas (2010) I purchased this as a gift for my seven year old daughter who is an avid horse fan. This was the first I have experienced this product. I was a little skeptical, but in the end, I am glad I purchased this product. We both had a fun time and created wonderful memories together.
Helpful hints:
When coloring the pages, tell your child to color in the images darkly. The darker the colors are prior to putting in the oven, the brighter and vivid the finished product will turn out.
The instructions say 3-5 minutes in the oven, but I found this was not enough time (more like 5-7 minutes). It takes a few minutes for the cutouts to heat up. Then you will start to see them curl (this is the part both children and adults find so exciting!). The page will slightly curl up, but do not open the oven door because once they curl they will start to flatten out. Watch them and make sure all of the cutouts have flattened completely then take them out of the oven to cool off. If you take then out before they have completely flattened there will be some "dents" in the finished product.
The Pros:
It's a fun activity for those that enjoy arts and crafts. My daughter and I had a blast and even Dad and Grandma came to watch the fun as we saw the shrink dinks curl up in the oven, shrink and then flatten out. The fun continued after that when we made jewelry; which, my daughter loves to now wear and show off what she made.
The Cons:
It is true there really is not alot of images that come with this kit. I believe it was 5-6 pages. The images that do come with it are cute and my daughter had a great time coloring the images, as I did as well having joined in the fun with her.
The coloring pencils that come with this kit leave alot to be desired. They are short to begin with and makes it very interesting if the point breaks and you need to sharpen the pencil. There are so few colors. We got creative and actually blended colors to get more variation, but given the type of colored pencil that comes with the kit and product medium, it can be a challenge. Due to so few coloring images and the coloring pencils, I have rated this product 4 stars.

Amazing for the horse lover . This is so much fun and it comes with alot of stuff!!! It even comes with its own hole punch:D Get it get it get it!!
What a let down . My daughter opened this gift for Christmas only to find that it did not include one sheet of shrinky dink material...shrinky dud!!! Purchase with caution. So much for Christmas shopping early, can't return it now!
shrinky dinks are back! . I loved Shrinky Dinks as a kid. This was a great updated version with horses that could be made into jewelry. Fun gift for a 7 or 8 year old girl.
Shrinkydinks . Brings back happy memories! My girls were thrilled with their shrinkydinks! This particular kit was great for horse lovers. Just don't make the mistake of trying to uncurl one in the oven. My husband did and a piece flicked off into the oven. We can't find the piece and it stinks everytime I use the oven. Do this activity when you can open the windows in the spring and fall!
Cons Review
Shrinky Dinks . I remember Shrinky Dinks were huge when I was little. The fact that they are still around and great fun for kids is nice. My six-year old cannot get enough of the coloring and shrinking of these crafty little toys. It's a fun way to create without a huge mess. I recommend Shrinky Dinks for kids of all ages!
So much fun! . My daughter has had so much fun with this! She has really enjoyed making the necklaces, rings, and change purse. Watching the shrinky dinks in the oven is really entertaining and the charms are adorable. We love it!
