More like a starter/finisher set. Stanley stuff will last as long as you need it. These sets are a little pricey, but well worth it.

Unfortunately she is such a girlie girl she'll probably want them in "shudder" pink. Keep her at it and have fun. rbb, that is terriffic, you must be very proud, I have a 5 year old son and a 4 year old daughter, and my son is already starting his tool collection (mostly “acquired” from mine) and I think it would be great if my daughter followed his lead.

She wants real tools, like dad's. She has always been interested in helping me out and taking things apart. One day, I was heading out to Sears and I asked her if she wanted anything. She said "screwdrivers." So, I got her one of the big Craftsman assortment and a case. I figured if she wasn't serious, I could use them. Well, she was serious. And now she has half the Craftsman catalog on her Christmas list. ;) My six year old daughter would be insulted by the “Do-It-Herself” kit. She wants real tools, like dad’s.

It seems that there is only one online distributor - Finlay, a printing shop in Connecticut. Still, the sets look well configured, and there are plenty of disciplinie oriented sets to choose from.
