hours of fun
I was going to save this as a Christmas gift for my nieces but just could not resist and had to give it to them early. They aren't allowed to go to a real nail salon/spa yet so I planned an at home "spa day" for them, with their mom's approval of course. The foot spa uses batteries so I was able to do this anywhere and not have to worry about being close to an outlet. However, that could also be a "negative" as you have to worry about replacing batteries. We always have plenty of batteries at home anyway for our gadgets so it wasn't an issue. They had to "wait in line" for their turn while I painted their toes and gave them a stack of magazines to flip through. It was such a fun experience for them without having to spend a fortune, and in the safety of our home. The foot spa machine itself is pretty cool, and is almost like the one I have for myself. I did use warm water - the machine doesn't heat up or anything, so make sure you use lukewarm water for the little feets! I went a step further and even gave them an exfoliating foot scrub which is something I already have at home for myself. This is honestly the best $40 spent - an experience like this in a "real" salon and spa would have easily cost more than $40 for two girls. The great thing about this is that it is a suitable item for a wide range of ages, even after they've entered their teen years. I highly recommend this set.
