Very cool!

I ordered the original kit and the refill papers. My kids ages 5 and 7 loved this. We made all kinds of prints - leaves, flowers, keys, a shoe, etc. When the package instructions say to only leave it out in the sun for 1-5 minutes, they are right! I might even try to do a couple of prints and frame them for my bedroom. Very pretty.

My 4 year old grandson loves this. We went for a walk and picked different leaves for the prints. They came out beautifully. He is going to make some for Christmas presents.

Ordered the paper for a science experiment for our campers on the importance of sunscreen. It was a great size, easy to use and very kid friendly. Quality product.

Good images, needs more instructions
Posted 4/22/2008 by Third grade teacher

Rating: 

I plan to use the Sunprint Paper with my third grade students, so I made a few examples to show them. I made two sunprints: one using flowers and leaves under the included Plexiglass, and the other using metal objects like keys but no Plexiglass. Both came out well, but I wish the directions were a bit more specific. For example, the directions warn not to "overexpose" the photo by leaving it in the sun too long (between 1-5 minutes). However, I wasn't sure how long to leave the photo paper outside with the objects on top. It was a bright day so I left them outside for about 2 and a half minutes, and both prints were fairly clear. I also wish there were some examples in the kit or a link online to examples of what objects look best on the photo paper. I found that translucent objects, especially tools that I use on the overhead projector like clear plastic money and clocks, work especially well. Also, if you use an object that casts a shadow on the paper, that shadow will also appear on the paper unless sunlight hits it directly from above (like at noon). Overall I liked the quality of the prints, but more instructions and examples would make it a more successful product to use with children. As a teacher, I would also like more information on the scientific pfocess that causes the images to appear.

Product review of Sunprint Paper Kit
Posted 6/7/2007

Rating: 

I used this product for a 3rd grade science class. When I tested it at home, it worked perfectly, very pleased with the results. However, because I had opened the package, I believe the paper was not as "fresh" the next day when the students tested it. Their results were fair to poor. Great product, just dont open early, or use right away!

My 5 year old grandson was fascinated by the Sunprints. He ran around the yard and then the house looking for more items to use. Make sure you purchase the extra paper!!

Sun Prints
Posted 7/2/2008

Rating: 

This Sun Print kit does a pretty good job with leaves and the like, but is not of much value for negatives. It's better for larger items, not showing smaller details. Don't wash the prints a full minute, it washes off the image.

Sunprint Paper Kit

I bought this for my daughter after seeing a photography exhibit featuring this type of prints. She really enjoyed the kit and it made beautiful pictures. Even though it is winter now, she found all sorts of interesting things to make prints of and took them to school to show her teacher. My wife also took the kit to Girl Scouts and she and my daughter used it there. Good product, good price and a great art and science activity! I have a feeling we will need the refill kit soon!

Great Fun and Educational Tool
Posted 10/2/2007 by Young Chung

Rating: 

Sunprints is a fun way to introduce kids to photography and I take the kit with me whenever we go on nature hikes or camping. I like this kit because of the larger paper size which can be cut smaller if needed. I only wish the included acrylic wasn't so static prone but I can't imagine a better alternative.

Product review of Sunprint Paper Kit
Posted 5/16/2008 by Iakov Zhurinskiy

Rating: 

This is a great product! It is very simple to use and it introduces kids to the very basic principles of photography. The images are permanent, exposure times are ranging from 2 to 20 minutes depending on the weather. Developing the image requires simple immersion in water for a minute. I wish it was available to me when I was a kid!

fun

I've loved the Sunprint Kit since I was a kid decades ago. It's easy to use (for kids and adults) and lends itself to dozens of creative projects. I'll be taking it with me on our beach vacation next week -- my kids are too young for it, so all the more fun for me!

Good Summer Fun!

We've made some beautiful prints out of objects and floral collected on the beach and in the yard. My 5 year old loved doing this and the resulting prints are really lovely and artistic looking - frameworthy, even!

Review of Sunprint Paper Kit
Posted 12/30/2006

Rating: 

The directions on the product weren't very detailed. It seems that you need pretty direct/constant sunlight to make a decent print, but this wasn't specified. We haven't had enough sunlight yet to test whether that will make a clearer print. As of now, our first two tries came out with blurry outlines of the objects we picked. Also would have been nice if it had a description of how the process works - how the print is formed on the paper, etc... so that kids using it can learn a little about the science behind it.

The Sunprint Paper Kit is a fun project to use with children of all ages. It is super-easy to use, and requires nothing but a bit of cold water and a sunny day. A great project to do outside as a nature craft, or even on a sunny windowsill with objects from around the house.

Rating: 

The SunPrint Kit was known to me. I have a granddaughter who is 4. The process works well, but I had forgotten exactly how fast the paper works in a full sun and how much rinsing you really need to do to set the print and that it re-blues itself as it dries. But anyway, we used it already and it worked well. We did leaves and bird feathers. She took the sun-prints home. We are very "product" oriented so I always try to make something with her that can make her proud and that she can take home.

This product is really neat and simple to use. You can make some really interesting pictures by just arranging objects on the paper and leaving it in the sun.
