What age is the Favorite Things Set for?

Melissa & Doug lists it for ages 8 and up. Younger kids can do it with adult help, but neat painting takes more patience at that age.

What do you actually make with it?

You paint a wooden piggy bank. It is a single painting project, not a general art supply set.

Yes. Once the paint dries, the wooden bank works as a normal coin bank.

A plain paint set offers more open-ended play and reuse. This set gives a clear goal and a keepsake, but only one project.

The set contains the wooden piggy bank and the paints needed to decorate it. Check the pack for the exact paint colors and brush included.

Plan for a covered work surface and drying time. A spare brush or extra paint helps if you want fuller coverage.
