Quick answer

The Shake-its Unicorns & Princesses DIY Craft Kit makes it easy to create a sparkly, shakeable keychain in about 15 minutes. Just fill, seal, and shake.

What you get in the kit

The Shake-its Unicorns & Princesses kit includes clear plastic shapes, sparkly beads, colorful confetti, keychain rings, and seal strips. No glue or scissors are needed, making it a true mess-free activity for ages 4-9.

Why this craft works for young kids

The simple fill-and-seal design means children can work independently with minimal adult help. The keychain result is something they can actually use and show off, which adds to the sense of accomplishment.

Step-by-step keychain making guide

  1. Step 1: Choose your shape and open the top: Pick one of the clear plastic shapes from the kit. Gently separate the top opening. The kit includes unicorn and princess themed shapes. Common mistake: pulling too hard can tear the plastic. Open slowly from the top seam.
  2. Step 2: Add beads and confetti: Pour a small amount of sparkly beads and colorful confetti into the opening. You don't need to fill it completely; about one-third full leaves room for the confetti to swirl. Checkpoint: too much filling will prevent the confetti from moving. Leave space for the shake effect.
  3. Step 3: Seal the shape: Press the seal strip firmly along the top edge of the opening. Run your fingers across the entire strip to ensure it is fully closed and no beads can escape. Common mistake: a weak seal can leak confetti. Double-check the edges are pressed flat.
  4. Step 4: Attach the keychain: Slide the keychain ring through the small loop at the top of the sealed shape. Snap the ring closed. The keychain is now ready to hang on a bag or backpack. Checkpoint: ensure the ring is fully closed so the keychain doesn't fall off during use.
  5. Step 5: Shake and enjoy: Give your new keychain a gentle shake. Watch the confetti swirl and sparkle inside. You can make multiple keychains to trade or gift to friends.
