Pretty neat little project

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a fun project! It was nicely packaged, and everything was properly secured. The actual aquarium is pretty solid, and the lid fits perfectly. This allowed my son to use his creativity and put the sharks and plant where he wanted. The poster that came with is on his bedroom door, and he's loving that! Definitely recommend this for any kiddos interested in the ocean.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a super cute and fun activity to do with the kids. It is very easy to assemble, and the materials are pretty nice. The durability I would give a 6 out of 10. The backgrounds are vivid, and the gel sets easy.
Don't waste your money!

My 6 year old was so excited for this and now I'm left a sad kid and a box of gel that looks nothing like it's supposed to. We followed the directions to a T and even used a thermometer to make sure the water was the right temp for dissolving the gel. The gel became a little less cloudy as it cooled, but it's so full of bubbles that you can't even see anything in it. This is at nearly 24 hours so it's not going to get any better.
