Khan Mosaics ~ A TimberDoodle Review

My kiddos had so much fun assembling Khan Mosaics. These vividly colored mosaic tiger and gorilla images use triangular foam, self-adhesive pieces to create life like animal images. Your child simply peel and stick. This art-by-numbers kit is a part of Timberdoodle's, 2019 4th Grade Curriculum Kit. The recommended age is 8-14. 

My kiddos love crafts. They were very excited when they saw this come in the mail. I was glad that two images were included in the package because both of my children were wanted to do it. The directions were very easy to follow. Both of my daughters completed their mosaic in under an hour. 


Directions guide your child step-by-step in placement of the pieces.


My 13-year-old daughter worked on the tiger. 


You need to be kind of careful when placing the large triangles as one 
is a right triangle and the other is an isosceles triangle. The fit will not match but
if your child is not paying really close attention they may accidentally mess these
up especially as the picture fills up more. 


If for some reason you have to peel up a foam piece because you placed it in the wrong spot 
the pieces peel up very easily. The piece may loose some of its stick 
if you need to place it back down in another spot. There are extra pieces given for 
"oops" mistakes. 


Here is the finished Thoughtful Tiger. 


My 11-year-old daughter worked on the gorilla. 



Here is the finished Grumpy Gorilla. 


Here are the tiger and the gorilla side by side. 


The thick decorative backboards are 8 1/4" x 8 1/4". DJECO has many other really cute mosaic sets available that you can order. I know what will be on my holiday list this year. These would make great gifts this holiday season!

  3. These look really cool - I like that they have a 3D effect as they are not flat stickers.
