Why it works
At a certain age they start to have things to keep: a medal, a tooth, bracelets, a note. This French box has the figure of the Little Prince, plays when opened and glows in the dark. As it is not the usual pink ballerina it suits any child, and it is one of those gifts that are kept into adulthood.
Our verdict
A lovely keepsake for a First Communion or a late christening. A lively child who keeps nothing will not care for it: the planetarium is better.
They will like it if
- they collect little treasures
- they have had El Principito read to them
- you want a delicate keepsake and not a toy
Bear in mind
- the wind-up mechanism is fragile: it will not stand rough handling
- it is small, for treasures and not for toys
- the listing gives very little information on size and materials
