Cross stitch kits for kids and beginners, including simple counted designs on aida and some printed kits where the motif is already on the fabric— with threads or yarn, a needle and a chart or guide in the box.
For stamped canvas projects that use acrylic yarn, see tapestry kits for kids.
Most kits on this page are counted: the fabric starts blank and the child follows a paper chart. A smaller set is printed, with the design already coloured on the fabric so they stitch over the picture.
Counted kids kits from ranges such as Janlynn Make it Cool and RIOLIS Happy Bee typically include aida, stranded cottons, a needle and the chart. Printed options such as Pako use pre-printed canvas with acrylic yarn instead.
