Parents looking to offer their child an entertaining toy that doesn't require them to look at a screen should look no further than PlushCraft -- a DIY kit that enables children to construct their own toys out of fabric.
Using the adorable kit, children can construct their own animal-shaped plush toys, effectively fostering a more of an emotional connection between the item and the individual. In addition to stuffed toys, children can decorate home decor items, like pillows, which may appeal to a slightly older demographic. PlushCraft is both user-friendly and interactive, as designs can be easily put together with the help of a stylus.
To make matters even more entertaining, PlushCraft creations can be constructed collaboratively, or individually.
