We’re on a long trip visiting my extended family for a month, and for RMB 22.8 I bought my daughter hours of creative crafting fun and myself hours of peace and quiet.
It all started when a crafting supply box got pushed onto my Pinduoduo feed. For those who still don’t know what Pinduoduo is, think of it as an even cheaper version of Taobao. You can get virtually anything on it for a super low price.
Pro Tip: While I’m sure there are plenty of trusty merchants on Pinduoduo, the general consensus is that you should only buy basic stuff on this platform and not foods, skincare, or expensive things, since the quality can sometimes be a bit dogy.
The art boxes come in sets designed for kids in different age groups. They’ve got essentially everything you’d need in them already, and each craft is individually packaged, which makes picking and choosing which one to work on so much easier. You’d still need to have your own markers if you want to color, and your own scissors to cut things, but stuff like double-sided tape, glue, and all the supplies and directions you’d need are in the box.
It’s perfect for when you’re on a long holiday and away from your plethora of arts and crafts supplies at home.
For RMB 22.8 I got a box of 16 different arts and crafts items, all perfect for my almost 3-year-old toddler to entertain herself with.
Each craft comes with instructions (but really, they’re so simple you don’t even need them). From gluing fluffy balls onto a unicorn to decorating a blue whale with glittery stickers, this box of arts and crafts has kept my toddler occupied all by herself for hours while I’ve gotten to enjoy some quiet time close by.
To purchase the kit, download the Pinduoduo app and put the photo of the product into the search function. Or scan the QR code below to buy the exact same product for RMB 35.9 on Taobao.
