The boards can be cleaned up easily, and the collage itself can be peeled off and reused. The set can be great for younger kids, and it's fun for older kids, too.

Our children's toy testers enjoyed making the farm friends, and they loved using the stickers and crayons to decorate them. The pipe cleaner legs were fun too, and the farm friends stood up on their own. The set includes four cutout animals (cow, chicken, pig, and horse), as well as two cutouts of farm structures (a barn and farmhouse), and 12 sheets of stickers: 8 animal stickers, 2 barn stickers, and 2 farmhouse stickers. The animals are very simple, but the cutouts are sturdy and good quality. The stickers are thin, so they're easy for younger kids to use, and we liked that the farm friends all came with colorful eyes. The farm friends also stand up on their own, although they're not very stable. A sturdy table or shelf is required for them, and we found that the cutouts were too large to fit inside most shoeboxes. The farm friends were fun for the whole family (kids of all ages) to make and play with, and they showed our testers that creativity can be fun and rewarding.
