Cute gift for the writer in your life. Good price and the magnets stick. No problems, would buy again!

Great gift for friends and family (or for yourself). Adheres well to the fridge door and other metal surfaces that will hold a magnet. The display of words invites poetry, witticisms, conversations, clever notes, and other expressions of creativity. Pro tip: if your work breakroom has a fridge, put a kit there when no one is looking and watch the fun begin!

Got this for my girlfriend for Valentine’s Day. She has cheerfully been making poems since. Going to add the basic set, because you can always use more word options.

it's a fun product that comes with a lot more words than one would think. The only issue i have is the lack of good "every sentence" type words. The pack has a good number of obscure words but i find myself having trouble crating the "poems" I'd like to with their selection

I have the standard edition and have used it on a metal "bulletin board" (bought from a Scandinavian big-box store) which I keep on the wall outside my art studio. The studio is in a building with other artists, so people passing by add a word or line, and over time a poem evolves. Over the past year or two, I have "collected" each poem, and then recently I put the poems together into a collection, in an edition of handmade chapbooks, and gave them away to all the people on my hallway. I bought this "Poets" edition (and a 2nd metal bulletin board) to add more word choices and more space for creating "communal poetry".

Good Quality Ships Fast. Using this for my senior Poetry Elective class and my students are excited to use it. However, I was expecting a metal tin container, like the one I got years ago for the plain set. My fault, I didn't read closely enough.

We have two teenagers and eventually we find less than innocent word combinations created from totally innocent words.DO NOT take this as a negative... the kids and their friends have a blast and we can only laugh as they put things together in ways we sometimes wish they couldn't. PG13 family fun! Just scramble them on your fridge and wait...
