Fun activity for child AND parent,
We got this sewing machine for my 10 year old daughter for Christmas. The kit comes with materials to make a skirt and a handbag. We have done the handbag, and my daughter had fun doing it. She felt a great sense of accomplishment sewing her own bag! I did help her through the project though. This is definitely an item that requires some adult supervision (and patience!) depending on the age of the child. I would not buy this for a child any younger than 8 or 9. My 10 year old is young enough that she can have fun with it, but old enough that she can grasp the basic concepts of sewing and using a machine. I had to go step by step with her through the directions, but the included patterns are not overly challenging. I am somewhat experienced with a sewing machine, so someone with little to no experience might find this toy a nuisance. Overall, the machine itself seems well made and easy to use. It comes with a foot pedal and power supply. My only complaint is that there is no light. Even in a well lit room, we found it difficult to see our work area. I found a desk lamp in the basement and we had to set that up next to the machine. Overall, a fun toy for an older child.

|Sewing Machine Fun,
My daughter likes this product a lot. It is great for new sewers. The only thing I did not like was it has no back stitch making it a pain to pull thru and tie off every seam.
