Perfect for crafting solo and making gifts, or collaborating with a pal, the sets include options like the Bestie Pack, the Starter Pod and the Deluxe Studio.

For kids who are eager to have in-person experiences, there will be an event to kick off National Friendship Day at Westfield Century City in Los Angeles, and it includes an interactive chalk exhibition, photo opportunities, hangout spaces and more.
