Hearthsong was kind enough to let us choose something neat from their website that our boys might enjoy. I figured what better way to find the great item to review then to just let the boys choose themselves. Since my younger boys always seem to be getting fun stuff I sort of let the choosing be up to the older 2 boys. They were so excited to look through everything and in the end they chose the Legends of Magic.
They were so excited and couldn’t wait for the magic kit to arrive. We received the kit yesterday while the boys were outdoors playing with their friends. I was so surprised to see them run in to play with their magic kit when they saw the UPS driver stop at our house! Their poor friends were left hanging while the boys checked out their new kit. (I did however invite their friends in to have a look themselves.)
I think we played with that kit most of the night and they played with it again this morning when they got up. They do not know all of the tricks yet, as there are about 250 different tricks…Wow!
The kit was a HUGE hit in my house.
However, from a mom’s perspective I have to give my opinion of the kit.
I hate to say anything negative about a product that we have received free, but I would have liked to have seen things built a little sturdier. I have boys and boys are really rough on things. The Illusion Box that came with the magic kit is already broken on day 2. 🙁 It is made out of cardboard and the pieces just slide together. It’s not real sturdy in my opinion. The boys don’t seem to mind though and are still enjoying all of their fun magic tricks.
Hearthsong is a great company! They offer some really unique items for kids. If you haven’t checked out their outdoor fun items for kids you really must!
