100 afternoons already sorted, without thinking up a single one

You are buying the plan of 100 afternoons: which one is for today, one sheet per afternoon. It is not a purchase by number of templates — it is the order they are laid out in and the index that chooses for you when the day gets weird. And about the free templates floating around online: they exist, they are real and we are not going to pretend otherwise. What does not exist for free is the arrangement. Downloading loose templates leaves all the work to you: searching, filtering, throwing out the ones that do not print well, and deciding which one is for today with the kid waiting next to you. That is exactly the part that is already done here.

That is what the assembly bonus is for — the six steps with drawings, and the two mistakes that happen most in each one. And if a piece gets cut badly, you reprint it without buying anything: nothing is lost but one sheet of paper.

From age 5. Younger kids are better off with an adult on the scissors, because the outline is curved. There is no upper limit: older kids like making them too.

Paper, scissors, tape and a stuffing. The stuffing bonus compares twelve options and how the squishy ends up with each one — the four from the plan plus eight more. In money: what you spend is one sheet of paper, and if it comes out wrong you reprint it without buying anything. Compare that with what a shop-bought squishy costs and do your own math: we are not going to put a number here that is not true in your town.

No. One of the bonuses has the same 100 templates as outlines, with no color fill: made exactly for printing in black and white so the kid can color them in. Same 100 templates, a fraction of the ink.
