Bought this for my 6 year old niece who loves to craft because I remember making tissue paper flowers as a kid. The tissue paper is very thin and it makes it extremely difficult to craft the flower without tearing it. Actually, I wasn't able to craft a flower without tearing off several pieces. My niece got frustrated and began using the pipe cleaners to craft animals. It is a great idea but the tissue is not strong enough for the craft. I suggest just buying a pack of tissue paper and pipe cleaners.
