Aquadoodle Classic Large Water Doodle Mat, Official Tomy No Mess Colouring and Drawing Game, Suitable for Toddlers and Children from 18 Months+

My 1 year old nephew has a habit of scribbling so this is perfect for him and mess free.

Son is 13 months old and enjoys playing with this. We were advised by his nursery that he needed to develop his "mark making" skills (we read into that as drawing). Really simple to use, unscrew the pen to fill with water, and then unfold and let your child draw on the mat. The pen doesn't not drip water, the nib feels like a damp flannel and the mat once damp temporarily reveals the colour underneath (i.e. where he draws).This mat is excellent, easy to transport or fold away. Simple to use and robust. The pen doesn't leave marks anywhere so furniture, walls, carpets are safe! Box has a recommended age of 18+ but our son is 13m and enjoys playing with this in bursts and as a joint activity. It is new (1 week we have had this) and he plays with it everyday - on one occasion he has sought this out and taken it out for himself.There are a few similar products available on Amazon - I can't comment on the quality of the others, but the Tomy Aquadoodle classic Large, has been great for us. Very happy with this.Context: We have lots of wooden toys, musical instruments and books and at this stage very little in the way of electronic / plastic / battery operated toys. I mention this because he has to actively engage with his toys rather than passively play with them (i.e. they won't make noises, move, light up etc. by themselves - he has to play with them) - and therefore at the moment doesn't appear to be bored / uninterested by this type of play and this apparatus in particular (aqua doodle).

The toy was nice and the birthday boy loved it buy the packaging looked awful when I got it, the cardboard on the opening ends was busted and frayed so didn't make the best impression for a gift.

Just as described!

The best thing I have ever bought for my son. You fill up the little pen with water then draw for as long as you want and once there is no more space to draw in you simply take your hairdryer and dry the thing in seconds and continue drawing. Endless fun and more importantly no mess! Because there is nothing to make mess with! How much mess can a little pen with water make compared to wax crayons or markers. No more drawing on the wall with this pen or on the floors, no more stained couches etc. And also it’s great when your little one loves drawing but is still at the stage where they put absolutely everything in their mouth. 10/10 would recommend to everyone and I plan on buying it for all of our friends with babies. Also it’s not expensive compared to the quality and all the advantages.

This is easily my toddlers favourite thing to play with. She loves drawing and as it dries within a couple of minutes meaning she doesn't have to wait to keep playing. Also mess free!

The pen’s head will become very dry after few time of use, the product is good to use and restore, but not very easy to clean

My granddaughter loves this and is reusable without the mess of paints or lots of crayons

Non sporca, si asciuga velocemente ed è un ottimo modo per colorare con l’acqua.
