DISAPPOINTED AT MISLEADING and VERY POOR INSTRUCTIONS

Verified Purchase:No
Instructions and video were not helpful AT ALL and we never managed to accomplish what was on the pictures! Instructions skipped key important steps, including how to dress the Loom and 'how to manage" the long string of yarn behind the needle. After 2 hours trying to figure out how to use it (by 3 generations of fairly educated people), we could not accomplish what was on the pictures. False and Misleading instructions may create risks of KIDS Loosing interest in weaving and knitting. I am going to check with Customer service to see how they respond
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Poor Instructions

My 8 year old daughter received this as a birthday gift. I'm generally pleased with Melissa & Doug toys. The construction of this item seems fine, however the instructions left us disappointed. Not only were the instructions unclear on certain steps and how much yarn to cut, they also directed us to a tutorial video that doesn't seem to exist. I was hoping for a toy that my 8 year old could have managed on her own or with minimal adult help.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great idea but very difficult to understand how to make.

I bought this for my 10 yr old and while she is able to do the look the instructions for the projects are minimal at best. There is no clear idea of how much yarn to use or how to deal with keeping that much yarn untangled. My daughter got very frustrated. And the video they day to go to doesn't exist.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

" It's really fun and I love making stuff". Quote from my 10 yr old daughter. I do have to help her with some of it as it's a little complicated but she's learning quickly.
I would recommend this to a friend!
