So, you get something which you will spend as much as an hour, to be realistic on a leisurely day, making with your child. And then you get to keep the results, which can be rather 'individual'.
The fiddly bit that puts me off just a little bit I can explain as follows: see in the product picture that there's a sort of net in the hoop. That's made out of a single silver string, which you have to wrap around the outside of the hoop with suitable distances between each coil, and then start weaving the net from the first coils inwards. This may take a couple of tries, and results may vary, but you can do it over and again if you wish. Impatient children will have to wait half an hour for the glue to dry where the feathers are stuck on. After that, you hang it up.
It seemed fun for my daughter even though I did most of the work, and she liked choosing which beads to use where, as well as the end result. Had it a year now, and only yesterday she told me she was happy to have it catching her bad dreams.
No one's going to say 'wow' receiving this gift in the same way as they would with a Wii or whatever it is that causes fireworks, and there's not a lot in the box. But I think it's a satisfying enough mini-present that deserves a go if you don't mind some very minor craftwork.

A lovely present idea - more suitable for older children, as very fiddly. Otherwise very good value for money.

Bought to make with my 5 year old daughter. We spent a good hour christmas morning carefully working together to make the dream catcher! Lovely pretty pink ribbon, beads and feathers. Lovely sparkly beads and thread for the web. Instructons not child-friendly - child would need adult help.

too tricky and the materials provided not up to the job
This took over an hour and the only thing my 7 yr old daughter could manage was choosing the colour combinations of beads and feathers.

Nice concept but
It is very fiddly to make. You do have to make it from scratch and there is no hook to hang it. nevertheless was fun making it.

Overpriced
Not worth £5. Whole of the kit could have fitted in an A5 envelope, rather than the oversized box it came in.
Instructions OK but not very precise. Suitable for ages 8+. Read more

Tricky!
This product says age 3 and above! I can't see a 3 year old making this dream catcher, even I struggled making it and I'm over 30. Eventually did it!!! Needs a lot of patients.
