Gelarti Activity Pack Review
Gelarti Activity Pack
Reviewed by Rebecca Linsell
Packaging is quite sturdy and the box is recyclable. The packaging is reasonably attractive, probably more so for children than adults.
The Gelarti Activity Pack contained five gel pens, two bag tags and stickers to paint with the gel pens. The stickers are perhaps more suited to a girl (not that my seven year old boy noticed!) but lots of hearts, flowers and "Love" stickers. The instructions are quite clear and easy to follow, although it did take me a while to notice that the picture frame it refers to in the instructions was actually a sticker in the pack (not really a picture frame).
The gel pens are easy to use although we did have a problem with one of the colours which kept blocking and really couldn't be used despite constant unblocking with a pin.
Overall I think I would recommend it – my seven year old has had real fun doing this. He enjoys doing craft things and this was quite good as he could do this himself after a bit of initial guidance. He has used the stickers to then put on other picture frames and a glass vase for gifts for his Grandma.
I think priced at about £17 this is relatively expensive for this type of entertainment and for the content of the box. Although there is plenty of gel in the pens and eight sticker pages. I have to admit that the finished stickers once dried look really quite effective, although it does take six hours for the gel to dry, which is long time for a child to wait.
