Fun Freetime: Kadoodle Kids New Kits

Send your kids the ultimate telegram with holiday-themed mask kits for children. Kadoodle Kids, a new crafts brand designed to inspire imagination and creativity in children, is debuting two special box sets that let the little ones design their own masks on Cupid’s special day. Also featuring stickers, glitter pens, stamps, markers, a special cookie recipe and even a chef’s hat and apron, the Kadoodle Kids Valentine’s Day kits are the perfect way to let your children express their love and imagination on this heart filled day.

Kadoodle Kids will feature two kits as part of the Valentine’s Day special. Its #KisstheChef box set, at $34.95, features a mask, fabric markers, glitter glue pens, candy stampers, heart and treat stickers, wash-off candy tattoos, a cookie recipe and a kids’ apron and chef hat, which can also be designed. The #BeMyValentine box set, at $21.95, includes a mask, fabric markers, glitter glue pens, heart stickers, wash-off glitter heart tattoos, Valentine's stampers and a mask pouch. Both can be ordered online at www.kadoodlekids.com.

“Our Valentine’s Day kits are such a great way for kids to get away from their screens and enjoy a tactical, experience that fosters imagination,” said Okun. “Whether designing a mask, apron or hat, the experience is a perfect time-out designed to let kids express themselves through art and creativity.”

“Valentine’s will certainly be different for many kids this year,” Mandell added. “Telegrams and heart-shaped candy will not be in plentiful supply. So Kadoodle Kids makes it all the more special. Our kits are created with love, and the experiences let kids express that sentiment too. Who doesn’t love that?”

In addition to the Valentine’s Day box sets, Kadoodle Kids will also feature its signature “Doll/ Stuffie and Me” kits, available in unicorn or dinosaur sets where kids can design a mask for themselves for themselves and their doll or stuffed animal.

I had a chance to do an interview to learn more.

Why are holiday-themed projects so much fun for kids? Holiday themed DIY projects are so much fun for kids because they let them use their imagination and creativity especially around the holidays. We are super excited about or Kadoodle Kids #bemine and #kissthechef mask kits this Valentine's Day. The kids can make their own masks for loved ones, friends and family. Instead of sending valentine's day cards this year, the kids are sending original masks made with kadoodles of love!

Valentine's Day is a holiday that celebrates love - why is it helpful for parents keep their kids doing crafts focused on love and friendship throughout the year? We have always loved Valentine's Day, the special day filled with love. However, we truly believe every day should be filled with love and friendship throughout the entire year. DIY craft projects keep the kids off the grid (Iphones, Ipads) and keep them engaged using their noodles. The expression of art and creativity is so very important and something homemade goes a long way.

Any future holiday tie-ins planned? Yes, We are having a socially distanced Mommy and Daughter Valentine's Day shopping event at the new Love Shack Fancy Store, Madison Avenue on the Upper East Side of NYC. The kids are going to create their very one one of a kind Valentine's Day mask which comes with glitter pens, stickers, markers, heart fun tattoos and more. Of course the store will be serving some cocktails for the moms and pink lemonade and Valentine's Day sweets for the kids. 

  

Kadoodle Kids launched in 2020 after Stern, Okun and Mandell witnessed the effects the pandemic had on children. In addition to illness, kids experienced isolation, being kept indoors and lack of activity. The mothers, all with kids of varying ages, decided to create an activity that would take children away from television, phones, computers and video games and let them use their imagination and creativity in designing masks. Kadoodle Kids debuted with holiday themed box sets and based on popular demand they are premiering new Valentine’s Day kits.
