Buy it: Orb Factory Sticky Mosaics Jewelry Box

The Orb Factory Sticky Mosaics Jewelry Box is a fun craft project and a great lesson in fine motor skills.

The jewelry box has a decorate-by-number pattern on each side. The child can stick on the included jewels and sticky foam pieces to create the butterfly designs.

My daughter Ally, who is almost 5 years old, loved this toy both as an art project and her first jewelry box. She happily peeled and stuck the jewels and foam pieces for hours. The toy’s recommended age is 6 and up and I would agree with that. Ally is still a little young to have the patience for a project like this and sometimes got frustrated trying to place some of the tiny pieces. But with my help, we were able to finish it.

Ally loves the jewelry box and it seems pretty sturdy. It features a lift-up lid and a drawer that slides out. We’ve only had the jewelry box for a couple of weeks, but so far the jewels and foam pieces are staying on just fine.

I would definitely recommend this toy for girls 6 and up or for younger girls who have the patience and fine motor skills for the project.
