[@ChloeRoseArt]

So since a few people asked what I thought was wrong with emojis and how kids draw smiley face's I thought I'd describe it a little better here haha - These things are marketed at small kids ie 6+, and these aren't just smiley faces these are actually marketed as "an emoji" not a "smiley face" meaning the kid would have to know what an emoji is. I'm pretty old fashioned and grew up without phones or ipads, and I plan to do the same for my kids (unless they're watching something or playing a kid appropriate game). I don't know, everyone is different but I just think it's a bit silly that a 6 year old would be marketed an emoji product made for phones and ipads haha

Yup i feel u

Ooh first comment and like for this

[@Iroh12345]

I really appreciate your view on kids and tech. Things like ''baby's first tablet'' or ''toddler's first phone'' make me puke

[@JasperCasper24]

I agree, when my niece got her first smartphone which she still has she was 8... I just.. ugh. Just ugh. Emojis, makeup, tiktok, Billie Eilish.. I can no longer stand being around her tbh

[@parrotperson]

@@JasperCasper24 there's something to be said about having your first phone be a nokia brick. I mean it's good for kids to be able to contact their parents in an emergency, but I'm not keen on the idea of kids having access to tiktok and whatever other inappropriate things they can find all over the internet. I don't know if you can even get phones without internet access on them anymore

[@elisabethweigand2366]

Why do this kits look so easy to do but are literally the most difficult and confusing things ever haha

[@JoySilla]

I have a Klutz one that was for decorating bobby pins with seed beads and wire. They were pretty, but I got tired of making them after a few. My friend had one of their fingernail painting sets where it showed how to paint different designs. I remember how hard it was for me to do those same designs using the toothpicks, yet she made it look effortless! I did enjoy another one that I got that was making hemp jewelry.

[@Tasoq]

That's basically any kids craft kits lol

[@lightlawliet3526]

they look more difficult than ikea furniture.

[@LifeLostSoul]

Kids have smaller hands so some of the tasks might actually be easier for children. Like putting together the unicorn horn. Also this is part of why child labor was so popular is they were small and could fit into small places and their small hands were better at more detailed work... And could pay them less.

As someone who grew up in the US, I can say I've never heard of surprise balls

[@riverAmazonNZ]

It is a thing (a party favour) in some parts of US, but I’m not sure that they are called ‘surprise balls’.

[@radlee974]

I too am in US. Aside from those “5 Surprise! Mini Brands Surprise Balls”, (Which, I believe, are a fairly recent toy, having come out within the past 2-3 years or so.) I too haven’t heard of them or seen any others. (There are *LOTS* of other “surprise” toys out there though. Which I would’ve *loved* as a kid, as there weren’t _nearly_ as many different ones on the market back then!)

[@RawringTaters]

All the mystery and surprise balls or whatever are new ways to make kids parents waste money. Otherwise With out wrap and the surprise aspect they are just gacha/coin machine prizes.

[@riverAmazonNZ]

@@RawringTaters absolutely. The toys only hold their attention for the time it takes to unwrap them, and if the kid is trying to collect a set “blind bag” style, frequently leads to disappointment and a need to buy more, just like gambling. That being said, a lot of the toys now say surprise on the box, but there is no mystery what’s inside, the “surprise” is just more packaging, so there’s more unwrapping to do, each little bit gets its own wrapper. It creates a lot of plastic junk! Way too much packaging on a toy that’s basically tat anyway.

[@RawringTaters]

@@riverAmazonNZ Totally forgot about the gambling aspect. Its really kind of gross to give that to kids if you think of the implications and addiction aspects.

[@PandaPaws83]

My mom used to make me surprise balls when I was a kid (38 now). I've never met anyone else that's ever heard of them! Mom never used a plastic container in the middle, she would start with the 'big' item, like a $20 bill folded super teeny for the middle. Wrap, wrap, wrap some crape paper, add another surprise. Could be an earring, charm, sticker, anything tiny. Add the item and wrap for a while till it's secured, then add another surprise. One of my favorite memories from childhood!

[@zoe_dawg]

That is the sweetest thing ever!

[@RawringTaters]

Thats so cute. My mom used to do the tiny present inside 800000 boxes thing just to mess with us during holidays and it was always so funny watching and guessing how many layers would be inside.

[@katelillo1932]

Aww this is such a sweet memory!

[@Dolljrsw]

I grew up with them too, I’m a little older than originally commenter. My mom now makes them for her grandkids. She’ll start with the ‘big’ gift too and wrap in all sorts of treats, sometimes they get to about soccer ball sized! Maybe it’s kind of regional? She grew up in New Orleans in the 50s. I agree that this is a weird and kind of lame kit

[@PandaPaws83]

@@Dolljrsw My mom grew up in Arizona in the 50's. I remember one year, I had to be about 14, I snuck my Christmas or Birthday (can't recall the occassion) surprise ball to my room one night and unraveled the ENTIRE thing to see what was in the middle. This year it was a $50 bill! Such excitement! ....Until I had to rewrap the entire thing in the dark for hours before morning!

[@Spiritofthecimmarron]

I actually really like the ball kit thing, it’s sweet!

[@haleyp898]

Klutz makes the best kits. They almost always come with a really detailed instruction book, and they always give you enough stuff to make multiple things. They were my favorites as a kid in the 90s, to the point that just seeing one is like full sensory nostalgia. I can even smell the book paper (yes, I smelled books as a kid, still do if im honest). I have no clue what those people were thinking with the name surprise balls. If I was a kid I would think it was hilarious and my mom would refuse to buy it because I was being "vulgar". It seems like a really nice kit too, just, unfortunately named.

[@fairieangel78]

I’ve never heard of Surprise Balls either. And don’t worry I giggle like a kid saying stuff like that. I love polymer clay. I’ve been making food earrings

[@KatDJZ]

The way you say "Surprise Balls" really emphasizes the BALLS part over the SURPRISE 🤣

As a double fan of Chloe and NerdECrafter I cringed when I saw "Klutz" on the cover. This went better than I thought it would. Well done, Chloe! I'm an 80's kid and we didn't do surprise balls, either so it's not an "old timer" thing.

Have to say I loved the emoji jokes , but it turns out that it was 1of the better erasers because a) the shape lends itself to erasing and b) I didn't mind you using it up 😐. As usual I loved your bears. I think it is your joy that you have whenever you make or draw bears that makes them shine through (that and that I like bears too). Would love to have seen you make a care bear eraser. Maybe you could draw your favourite carebear, if you like them?

My guess is the surprise balls is a new idea just to make profit based on what’s popular in the kids toy market currently. Currently some of the most popular toys are surprise balls or like what would be referred to as a mystery box. Popular toys such as lol surprise and 5 surprise mini brands are basically surprise balls.

That surprise ball kit looks so cute! I've always loved a good Pass the Parcel type surprise gift activity. I've seen a couple of pre-made "surprise balls" that sell for like $8 each at full price (I got a couple for $1 each). The outside decorations weren't as elaborate, but they did have little party hats and other "Christmas cracker" quality jokes/gifts along the length. The centre had a little puzzle and other things that got a little squished because they didn't use a plastic capsule in the centre. 7 year old me would've loved the shit out of that kit.
