When I ordered my Popin'cookin' sushi candy set it had to be shipped from Japan, but that was a part of the fun and adventure to us! I try really hard to encourage my future Renaissance Man to explore different cultures and what is more fun to anticipate a package from Japan. The packaging is all in Japanese, and so are the instructions, but do not fear, there is always youtube to the rescue. So I simply went to, KraciePopin'cookin' Japanese Sushi candy and followed along with the video.
I helped my son follow the directions, and I thought that the little roe was fascinating to make because you had to add droplets to a solution. Then after in the tray they make the candy, they have to form the little sushi candies.
And EAT!
Fun, interesting and he got to explore a different culture in a fun way!
I also have a Bento Box candy kit and a donut kit. I am looking forward to seeing how my son handles trying to deccifer the instructions on the box.. They are visually set up, step by step, and I want to see how he will draw on his past experiences to figure out the challenge. I know the results will be fun and actually they were enjoyable to eat!
I love the way you always find things to stimulate your kid to explore new food, art and cultures! Very important for a youngster :-)
