Kaleidoscopes To You Review & Giveaway: Holiday Gift

We received 3 Kaleidoscopes from Kaleidoscopes To You. We got the Large Gold Fluid Fantasy for Avery. Also the Classic Tin Toy for Avery and the Laminated Sold Woods Teak for us. We loved all of these. 

The first one pictured, the gold one I think is mine and Avery's favorite. It comes separated with 2 rubber washers. You stick the tube with all the glitter and trinkets inside the other part and put a washer on each side to hold it in place. Then you tip it, look through the hole and spin it as the items fall. It's so neat and with so much in there nothing is ever the same. It's different all the time.

Avery also likes the tin one because I let her have that one on her own with no supervision. She seems to like it and plays with it all the time. 

The teak one is a different kind. it really is gorgeous though but it doesn't have as much stuff in it so it's hard to get a lot of images. 

My mother had an original one from Germany. You could open it up and add stuff or take out stuff to change it up a bit. I played with it a LOT as I was growing up, so I'm happy Avery can have these as well. 

Price: The teak one is 5.5" long and it's $40. The tin one is $6 and the Gold one is $18. These are generous prices. And I think any of them would be good as a gift! The little ones are great stocking stuffers for kids and the teak one is great for an older child or for a parent, grandparent aunt, uncle etc. So many people would appreciate it. 

Overall: *****
