This is a thank you for the advice I got 11 months ago from this community when I asked what would be suitable for my daughter who is 6 to try for her first cross stitch. I decided to go with a dollarama plastic canvas. It's not at all neat, but it's hers, and she's now graduated to 11 count printed Aida. She loved doing this just like mummy, and I appreciate the pointers so many of you gave me to get her started.
