Beautiful Butterflies

Your two girls, age seven and age thirteen, are having some tension lately. "Julie's a little brat!" says Rebecca. "Becky slams the door every time I come near her room!" says Julie. Since they're going to have to live in the same house for at least another five years, you'd prefer if they got along, but it's so hard to find common ground. Rebecca isn't interested in Barbies anymore, and Julie isn't interested in talking about boys yet (and anyway, talking about boys is why Rebecca keeps slamming the door).

However, they'll both love the Beautiful Butterflies kit from Faber Castell, an activity that girly-girls of all ages can enjoy together – and that includes you, Mom. The kit includes three big, simple, friendly-looking tulle butterflies on light frames, which can be embellished with sparkle paint and rhinestones. Regardless of your kid's age and skill level, she can create her own unique and lovely butterfly to display on the wall or hang from the ceiling. And the kit comes with three bonus tiny butterflies on hair clips, which can be decorated and worn to school the next day, making Julie the envy of the second grade. Recommended for ages 6 and up.
