    Doing the full kit myself and feeling like a kid again

    Today I actually did the entire kit myself: printing, cutting, taping, assembling every page.

    It felt strangely nostalgic, almost like meeting my child self halfway. If I could go back in time and hand this kit to little-me, I know I would’ve absolutely freaked out from excitement. Craft-based role play was always my soft spot, and seeing this come to life made that very obvious.

    I resized the ID card so it now fits perfectly into the universal sleeve I ordered recently.

    And I ran through the whole experience exactly as a parent/kid would, which gave me confidence: it’s genuinely fun.

    There are three small materials missing to complete the craft station, so I ordered them:

    • color pencils
    • kid safety scissors
    • pritt glue sticks

    Once these arrive, the kit business becomes fully self-contained.

    Now the only big step left is: photos + listing images + publishing.

    For version one, I’ll leave videos out but during Christmas break, when life slows down a bit, I want to create some how-to and timelapse videos. Something warm and educational, but also usable for marketing later.

    A satisfying, tactile day. The kit is real now, not just on screen, but in my hands.
