Best Baby Casting Kit of 2025

"I absolutely love this frame! The wood is of great quality and very sturdy. It’s easy to wipe off any dust that builds up. I found preparing the clay a bit tedious, so I recommend measuring everything first to avoid uneven results. For most babies, it might be better to only place one hand or one foot on each clay piece. It comes with a rolling pin and plastic cut-outs for the wording. Overall, a beautiful purchase that I would buy as a gift for baby showers!"

"I got this for my baby's footprint and was thrilled with the quality. The clay is easy to work with and imprints my baby's foot perfectly. Once dry, it has no cracks, and I even bought a second one for her handprints! This set is just the perfect size for newborns!"

"I had a lot of fun using this kit! We applied coconut oil to the clay to make it more flexible. It was important for us to map everything out before starting and test the stamps to ensure they were placed correctly. Overall, it was a great experience!"

"I absolutely loved this! It was incredibly easy to do and my parents and in-laws were thrilled with the handprint and footprint of our daughter, along with the pictures. It turned out beautifully and was a great value for money!"

"I used this to cherish the prints of my baby girl when she was just 3 months old. The instructions were clear and the material is non-toxic, which I appreciated. Plus, the clay is easy to work with and there was no mess to clean up!"

"We got this for my parents and in-laws, and they were so happy! It dried well in about 12 hours, but I recommend reminding the recipients to let it dry longer. It's best to have someone help since kids can be a little wiggly!"

"I recently bought the inkless paw print kit, and it's become one of my favorite keepsakes! It captures my dog's paw print without any mess, and the results are simply beautiful. The kit is incredibly user-friendly with clear instructions, and I was able to get a perfect print in minutes. Cleanup is a breeze, allowing me to enjoy the moment with my furry friend."

"I absolutely loved using this inkless footprint kit! It kept my baby's tiny feet completely clean—no mess, no fuss. The prints turned out beautifully, capturing every tiny detail perfectly. It made for a thoughtful gift for grandparents, who adored it!"

"I got this kit for my husband during the holidays, and it turned out to be a hit! We have a painting of one of our dogs, but we wanted more artistic keepsakes. This kit is a perfect way to preserve memories while having fun capturing our dogs' footprints. The cleanup was easy, and treats helped keep the pups calm during the process."

"I bought this for a fun project with my son, and I was pleasantly surprised by how well it turned out! My 4-year-old stayed still, and we followed the instructions closely. The final product captured every detail, even the creases in my hands. The only minor issue was the tips of his fingers didn't mold perfectly, likely due to his movement. Overall, it became a beautiful keepsake that symbolizes our father-son bond."

"I had never used this product before, but it became incredibly meaningful during a difficult time. I was losing my best friend, and my daughter helped me create a cast of her hand. The process was straightforward, and the final result is something I will cherish forever. I can't express how grateful I am for this product; it allowed me to have a tangible memory of my dear friend. It's worth every penny!"

"I've used this product several times over the years, and it never disappoints. I created a hand mold of my youngest son and incorporated a toy car that represented my sons' childhood. Each time I use it, I find it becomes more precious with time. Just a tip—make sure to measure your water accurately before starting. I once miscalculated and ended up with a softer mold, but it still turned out reasonably well. I appreciate how easy it is to remove the mold from objects, and I love the creative possibilities it offers!"

“I got this gift for a baby shower. It's a very meaningful gift and worked amazingly easy to assemble.”

“This product is a fantastic way of capturing the small moments. It feels as if time has been frozen every time I look at it. This is great for a newborn and would make a wonderful gift.”

“I was so excited to use this as we had our first baby girl. However, despite trying multiple times, the product never thickened and remained watery with chunks. I was really disappointed since I was eagerly looking forward to it.”

"I made these as Christmas gifts for two sets of grandparents, and they loved them. They were easy to use and turned out beautifully. I didn't use the paint, but the clay and molds were great. Just a heads-up, it takes 4+ days for the clay to dry."

"After a second attempt with this baby ornament kit, I've updated my review to 5 stars! The kit is easy and simple to use. My first try was a bit messy, but this time I pressed my baby's hands and feet more gently. The molds and stamps are really helpful, and I highly recommend this kit as a keepsake!"

"I wanted to create a cute memento of my baby, and this kit worked perfectly! The shapes fit my baby's tiny hands and feet. Just a tip: it takes two people to make a good print. Overall, this is a fantastic product for making memories, and I wish my family had gifted it to me!"

"I found this product very easy to use with my 2-year-old grandchild."

"Using this kit to create handprints for my grandson was simple and effective. The ability to redo it if he moved was a real lifesaver!"

"Great results for my 1.5-year-old! I was able to create three ornaments, and the glaze gave them a finished look. I'll definitely look for another kit if we have more kids!"

"I found this product to be incredibly easy to work with! All the tools were included, even little letter stamps, which impressed me. The medium was softer than play doh and rolled out smoothly without making a mess. I learned to follow the instructions about rolling it out on the plastic rectangle because it stuck to my clipboard. I wish I had discovered this product sooner; it’s a fantastic ‘easy button’ for family Christmas gifts!"

"I was looking for a more affordable option compared to the pottery barn ornament kit I bought last year, and I was not disappointed! The clay was soft and easy to mold, and I loved the various stencils included. I managed to make five ornaments from two kits, which was a great value!"

"I bought this for my baby’s first hand and footprint ornaments. I followed the instructions closely, but unfortunately, the prints didn’t hold and disappeared as the foam puffed back up. It was quite disappointing because it’s challenging to get good prints from a two-month-old. I’d say it was a waste of money."

"I've purchased this many times for kids and grandkids. I bought it this time to make a keepsake of my baby's paw after he fell ill. It was easy to make with simple instructions. The finished product is soft and lightweight, and it looks beautiful with its little red bow on our tree. I will treasure this always and would recommend it for capturing special moments."

"I found it incredibly easy to create my child's handprint. I absolutely loved the process! The end result turned out wonderfully."

"After placing the handprint, the mold dried beautifully, but I was a bit concerned as it puffed up and somewhat reduced the detail of the handprint. However, the color was lovely, and the instructions were clear. For the price, it's a nice option, just ensure you press deeply for a better impression."

“I found there was plenty of material to create multiple molds. I made molds of both my feet for my grandparents and me, and still had enough left over to try a hand, although my son kept gripping it, so that one didn’t turn out.”

“I absolutely adored this product! It was super easy to use and I created a beautiful hand and footprint ornament for my baby's first Christmas. They turned out perfectly, and I even have leftover material for future projects.”

“I was a bit disappointed to see that the molds didn't turn out as thick as shown in the photo. We pushed my baby's hand in deep, but it still came out quite thin, which was a letdown since he grows so quickly.”
