It is no secret that it has been pretty hot this summer, here in Arizona we are used to it, however many states experiencing heat waves aren't used to it. So to beat the heat many families have been staying inside to stay cool, which means finding more ways to help kids stayed entertained indoors. Painting, Crafts, Coloring and hands on projects have always been favorable activities for my kids which is why we loved Horizon Group USA. They have dozens of activates for kids (and adults) to do that keep your hands and mind busy. If you are a new follower and are unaware, I am a Giveaway Guru with the Horizon Group USA influencer team, so not only do I get to share their great products with you through reviews, I also get to giveaway products as well!
Today I am going to be covering a product from their Made by Me! line, this time I received the Paint your own Jungle Figurines. It can be purchased on a number of sites including amazon for $7.99 along with other figure shapes. The set comes with a set of paint, a paint brush and two figures - one is a monkey and the other is a lion. We also received a set of twelve paints to use on our figures.
Both figures are about the size of your palm, the lion was actually slightly larger than I thought it would be. This time around since there were two figures, I decided to paint one with my son, I love adorable monkeys so I claimed it as mine and he did the lion.
I found that the material these are made out of wanted to absorb the paint, so depending on the color you are wanting to use I would recommend adding a second or third coat to get the color you desire. Out of the two the monkey has the most details in the fur and face, it even has little toe nails on the toes where the lion is more simple with a crazy mane and tail but no big details along the body or paws.
After getting the base paint down on the monkey I decided to try out doing a Mandala technique, I honestly had no idea what I was doing and I know it doesn't look how the style normally does but I am happy with how it turned out. It took a lot longer to do than I thought as well but it was worth it.
