Melissa & DougOn the Go Water Wow! Reusable Water-Reveal Activity Pad - Connect the Dots - Farm - Party Favors, Stocking Stuffers, Travel Toys For Toddlers, Mess Free Coloring Books For Kids Ages 3+

I'm always looking for art activities for toddlers and pre-schoolers quiet time. This coloring method is ideal especially for traveling as it has no mess (I think I just heard angels singing). Beyond the developmental preschool age it is not well-received because their work disappears. At least, that's my best educated guess. But it is great for those times when kids are wound up and a little tired from interactive play and need to be given a quiet activity. My 18 month granddaughter loves to do this with me, taking turns to bring color to the page. Recommend. Also appreciate the seller including name, address and phone on receipt. Didn't need to use it but appreciate it. Not enough sellers take responsibility for their products and service so this is a win-win for this seller.

These Water Wow! books are awesome. I got a few for Christmas presents, and all of the kids, from ages 2 to 8, were playing with them for hours! I love how it looks like the kids are painting, but there is absolutely no mess to clean up. With the storage compartment for the water brush, these books are great to bring on the road or anytime you want to keep a kid busy. I highly recommend this product!

These are one of the best things to get for long car trips! Both my kids ages 3 and 8 love them and I love the fact that they only use water so no mess! The pages don't take long to dry so they can use it over and over. I keep a set in my car for daily use and try to pick up a new one every time we go on a long vacation in the car. They are really great and I recommend them to all my friends.

I have several of these books, and my almost 2 year old loves them. I introduced them to her when she was about 20 months old for a long car trip. They kept her occupied for hours. These are a great alternative to coloring books and crayons for several reasons. One: it just uses water and dries quickly, enabling the child to continue "coloring" for hours. Two: if your child is too young to trust with crayons on a car trip, then this works great (my kid was still kinda eating crayons when we did the car trip).My kid has been coloring on them for months, and they are still great. The only reason they are in bad shape is because she took some real crayons to them. We're trying to teach her that you can only color with the water pen for these books. So the 3 we originally bought are kinda shot, but I have 3 more she hasn't even seen yet (she actually hasn't used this one yet).

My son LOVES these Water Wows. He has three of them now and they are perfect for in the car or at a restaurant. The best thing is that you can use it over and over, as the pages dry after about 5 minutes. I thought my 3 year old would get bored of doing the same page over and over, but he hasn't yet! This is a great gift, too. I've purchased a few for friends.

LOVE these coloring books!!! I cannot emphasize how wonderful these books are. We have 2 year old twins and they love to "paint" with these almost daily. We have 6 of the available books and it's great to have more than one because once they finish one book, they can work on another while the first dries (we leave them on their sides with the pages slightly ajar and they dry pretty quickly). With 6 books we can swap them around and each kid can color a different book almost continuously. We have found that the color shows up more quickly once the book has been used numerous times, so as long as they are left to dry out after each use, they seem to get better with time. It's also very good that these books use a brush because the kids tend to mash the tip against the book, which has ruined numerous markers. Pressing too hard against the book can leave scratches, but after months of use, the books we have are still pretty well intact, which is awesome. For $5 a piece and because they are zero mess and reusable ad nauseum, these books are an amazing value and I'd highly recommend them to anyone with kids who are beginning to show an interest in coloring or writing. A great investment that will last well if taken care of. :D

Fantastic. We purchased three of these in various styles (connect the dots, vehicles, and animals) for our 6, 4, and 2 year olds for Christmas (they received them Christmas eve and didn't want to put them down!). They were a HUGE hit with all three of them! It's not often a product can reach that span of ages. They have been eagerly swapping pads and trying each others out for the last day and a half.The dot-to-dot is perfect for a preschool/kindergarten age--simple enough that they can do them themselves but not so easy they're boring. I highly recommend these!!

Just fill the water brush and paint away. Watch as the colors illuminate the pages! We purchased our first one in an airport and a second at a target...3 more on amazon! The pages are a thicker cardboard and very durable. The kids love these. They are easy to bring on planes, cars and anywhere mess free. Originally purchased for the younger 3 year old nephews but the 5 year old niece and 6 year old nephew also enjoyed them! Great product the original is STILL going strong almost 10 months later with a lot of use.

Loving this product and is good to keep your little one busy.

These are the best! Especially for toddlers age 18 months and up. My four year old enjoys then as does my 7 year old occasionally! Worth it for travelling or quiet sitting!

Great little book that comes to life with water. It kept my toddler entertained and as she gets older she can do the activities on each page as it was intended. It dries quickly and has storage for the water pen. Great concept!

Good activity book to keep kids entertained. The little bits to find after coloring are fun for the kids. Overpriced and we find the colors have become a little dull after coloring for a few times.

Really nice product to engage kids for few minutes, dries pretty quickly and can brush again to see the color, my kid loves it.
