Kiwi Co is a creativity-encouraging subscription service that offers fun and educational products like this DIY messenger bag kit. The crafty product is not only a customizable fashion design project but also features LED lights that kids will learn to build into a circuit.

Consisting of a black cotton carryall, LED lamps, neon paint and sponges, this messenger bag kit lets kids create a custom, [light-up accessory](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electronic-handbags). After building their very own circuit which is incorporated into the front flap of their bag, kids can paint the accessory to resemble a starry night's sky. This can be achieved with light sponge strokes that are enhanced with the glow of its embedded LEDs.

Both a fun and educational project for kids, [KIwi Co's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kiwico) fashionable kit is a great gift for young design lovers.
