It’s really difficult to say which one is better. They are very similar, but with some differences. I have not used either of these, so my opinions are based on kits in general, and what I can see about these.
You will notice that they all come with instructions, needles, yarn, and patterns. But one has bamboo straight needles, and the other has circular. I tend to prefer the circular anyway, and knitting is the same on either one. But it may confuse, or frighten, experienced knitters. Beginners don’t know the difference.
One has a sewing needle — not necessary, but nice to have. The prices vary.
The really important thing in this whole equation of which is better is the interest of the learner. If they want to learn, they will. If not, no kind of “best” kit will help.
I still feel that a live loving and caring person teaching a youngster is the best way to learn. You get personal attention (children need that) from an understanding adult that gives encouragement, even when they make mistakes. The children need some guidance, some goals to strive for, but mostly they need the sharing that comes from someone giving of themselves to them personally. We lack so much of that in this automated impersonal world. Those old-fashioned values are still important.
If you want to get a kit for your child (grand-child), any kit will do. Even a pair of your old needles, some of your “good” yarn, and your own personal guided instructions. Cast on for them, show them how to knit, and let them go at it! As time goes on, they will ask for other steps.. and you show them. Remember: someone had to teach you once long ago! Have patience.
