Fun Activity with Kids!

I bought this for my 11 year old niece. Adult assistance is DEFINITELY necessary, but that helped make it a fun activity to do together. My niece and her younger brother enjoyed selecting/writing the fortunes and helping me check when the cookies were just ready to be taken out of the oven. Each batch creates 12 cookies, I believe, and there are 4 batches so it's a great activity to revisit. My only real complaint is that it's a little time-consuming because you can only make 4 cookies at a time on the silicone mat that's provided you, but I guess that's also because you need to be pretty quick to shape the cookies before they cool too much and a limited amount helps you better manage.


Great couples activity

I love this as a "non-clutter" gift! It's a fun bonding activity for couples - each "fortune" can be a date night suggestion, personal affirmation, inside joke, or other ideas. #sweepstakes


Sticky and not easy to make

package, instructions, everything was good until the actual baking of the cookie and they never really dried. They remained soft nd sticky and I couldn't get them to close properly.
