I remember loving playing with plasticine when I was a kid. Even now I can shut my eyes, imagine being ten years old, and smell that unique plasticine odour. The problem was that it never really lasted that long, not if you REALLY had fun with it. So I only really got replenished supplies as gifts from friends and family members.

This pack has what is described as a rainbow of colours, plus cutters, rollers and other tools to make a range of animal shapes.

I couldn't see anything to say what you get exactly. However, from the reviews it looks like this is a big pack. Lots of comments about the huge amount of plasticine you get, and what a big box this is.

This is typical of the comments. "I brought 2 of these as Christmas presents for my 2 year old and his friend (very early, I know).  I was surprised how big the box was and what was included for the price."

The pack is suited to children aged 3 years and upwards though, so I'm not sure they should have got one for a two year old!
