Yes, this project is great for children, but they should have adult supervision during the mixing and glue application steps for safety.

You can substitute with other types of craft glue, but ensure it dries clear for the best effect.

Simply wipe it gently with a damp cloth to avoid scratching the crystals. Avoid any harsh chemicals as they might damage the surface.
