This activity needs adult supervision, but at the same time is a great trip down memory lane for the grown-ups which means they are usually very happy to supervise or even join in.
WARNING: Adults may get just as excited about Shrinkies as the kids!!!!
This fantastic DIY set has all the bits and pieces you need to create your own shrink art keyrings at home. All you need is an adult, an oven and some inspiration. There are oodles of premade designs and fonts in this kit for you can trace. You can combine designs together to make your own personalised version or get extra creative and make your own designs from scratch. Whatever takes your fancy.
Once you have traced out your design onto the pre-cut Shrinkie shape and coloured it, the fun really starts. Its time to bake your Shrinkie in the oven and watch like magic as it shrinks down to 40% of its original size, right before your eyes. One of the highlights is watching how the colours become more vivid and intense as the artwork shrinks.
Once the Shrinkies have cooled down, this kit has everything you need to make your completed shrinkie into a cool keyring. This kit includes plenty of the pre-cut shrinkie shapes (10) to make personalised gifts for your friends and family. Or why not share this great activity with a friend or two on a rainy afternoon
