Not gigantic!, 20 Nov 2008
This is a really good colouring book, lots of simple pictures to colour in. However this book is not gigantic in size, I think they mean gigantic in the number of pages. Its a normal A4 size book. But well worth the money.
Fun Colouring Book, 16 Nov 2008
Excellent colouring book with big bold line drawings. Team up with chunky Crayola crayons - keeps a 2 1/2 year old happy for the best part of an hour at a time on a wet day - and that takes some doing!

Very poor, 25 Nov 2008
Don't bother buying this item! I just did, and, instead of 24 crayons in a nice round container as pictured, I received (very late) three cardboard packets of crayons. Not a nice present for a two-year-old.
Perfect to colour with!, 25 Nov 2008
My two nephews love these crayons, which keeps them busy for hours. They are nice and chunky to handle, so they are perfect for small hands.
My advice is to get a large colouring book- to prevent them drawing on walls etc.
The crayons will last for ages!
Just right size, 01 Oct 2007
My little boy has had these since he was one and were now on our second set.He loves colouring and drawing so these are perfect.When they came i thought they would be longer but in fact they are just the right size for little hands.And he loves it even more now he can tell me the colours of them.
Perfect for little people, 19 Jul 2007
These crayons are perfect for little people. I bought these crayons when my daughter was 12 months old and she loves them. She is now nearly 2 and she has not managed to break or snap any yet. They are lovely and chunky for little hands to grip. They have a great selection of colours.
We kept a few seperate in her changing bag, as they are a brilliant idea if you get stuck in a traffic jam, or to keep them amused in the highchair if you are eating out. These are a must have and travel everywhere with us!
My little girl loves these so much I have now bought her a new set.
The only drawback is that they do take a bit of elbow grease to remove from the telly, walls, furniture etc. But so far I have managed to remove any little accidents! I'm not sure that they would from wallpaper though, as luckily her accidents have been easy clean surfaces.
If you have dogs, make sure these stay off the floor or there could be tears. For some reason my dogs seem to love eating stray crayons.
Highly recommended, a really good investment that keeps them amused for hours!

Dont bother...., 07 Apr 2008
I bought this item as my 3 and a half year old daughter saw the advert on TV and asked if she could have one. I thought I would buy it for Easter instead of Easter eggs as she would get eggs from her grandparents and she would enjoy doodle daisy more. The parcel arrived and with much excitement we set it up. There are holes for 5 pens on the front arms, there are shape stamps on each of the 6 feet and the hat has 8 stencil shapes. The stamps and shapes are functional just as any other stamps and stencils are (they do what they're supposed to do). The main feature of doodle daisy is the spirograph function. We chose a setting on the dial underneath doodle daisy and set it going. My daughter watched in amazement as doodle daisy span round and round drawing lovely patterns on the paper. After playing with it for 10 mins one of the pen nibs broke (not good). After playing with it for less than 30 mins, the remaining pens began to run out of ink (not good at all). At this point my daughter lost complete interest in it and it now sits on her shelf gathering dust. She now creates her own spirographs using good old elbow grease, a pen and paper). I now wish I had bought her the Easter eggs, at least we could have had more fun burning off all those calories. My advice would be to try other spirograph products out there. I hope this helps you decide.
brilliant!, 28 Mar 2008
Bought this for my girls even though they are 7 and 9, they absolutely love it! Its easy to set up, uses 2 AAA batteries, turn the dial underneath for the design, slot the pen in one of the holders, press her back and off she spins! if your child is a fan of spirograph etc then thy'll like this. makes loads of different patterns.
Not impressed, 05 Jan 2008
After all the ads on the popular kids TV channels, Santa finally left my daughter "Daisy" to her delight. However this was short lived. She was fiddly too set up and work, not good for a excitable child on Christmas morning and the patterns were nothing like on the ads. The pens are rubbish and don't last long at all. It didn't live up to what she had seen and has since been left untouched - in all disapointing!

'stickers and stones', 24 Feb 2008
This is a great kit - I'm buying a couple more to have in the cupboard for party presents. A rare craft activity that's equally good for girls and boys! I'd say best suited to 4-7 yr olds, but I had fun making them too. It was such good quality and a brilliant price that I made a point of getting other Crayola kits subsequently as a result of trying this one. Big thumbs up for the funky pebble bugs!
I can't believe it!, 29 Aug 2006
I bought this for my daughter (aged 5). I was a little jubious as I thought it is 'just decorating rocks', how wrong I was!!!! This kit provided hours of fun!! Included is 5 rocks, colouring pens, card bodies for the bugs and their wobbly eyes. A really nice touch is the 'snakes and ladders' style game sheet, card counters and dice included that you can play with after the decorating has finished.
I now have 4 pet rocks on my windowsill, and very nice they are too!

Great 'til the pens run out., 28 Nov 2008
My 7 year old son was given this for Christmas and really enjoyed playing with it, until the Glow Markers quickly ran out. No shop sells the refills, you have to order them from Crayola, who are currently out of stock. The Glow board has sat for months on the shelf unused and has been a waste of money. I would have recommended it if the refills had been readily available, but without them it is useless.

If you have dogs, make sure these stay off the floor or there could be tears. For some reason my dogs seem to love eating stray crayons.

Dont bother...., 07 Apr 2008
I bought this item as my 3 and a half year old daughter saw the advert on TV and asked if she could have one. I thought I would buy it for Easter instead of Easter eggs as she would get eggs from her grandparents and she would enjoy doodle daisy more. The parcel arrived and with much excitement we set it up. There are holes for 5 pens on the front arms, there are shape stamps on each of the 6 feet and the hat has 8 stencil shapes. The stamps and shapes are functional just as any other stamps and stencils are (they do what they're supposed to do). The main feature of doodle daisy is the spirograph function. We chose a setting on the dial underneath doodle daisy and set it going. My daughter watched in amazement as doodle daisy span round and round drawing lovely patterns on the paper. After playing with it for 10 mins one of the pen nibs broke (not good). After playing with it for less than 30 mins, the remaining pens began to run out of ink (not good at all). At this point my daughter lost complete interest in it and it now sits on her shelf gathering dust. She now creates her own spirographs using good old elbow grease, a pen and paper). I now wish I had bought her the Easter eggs, at least we could have had more fun burning off all those calories. My advice would be to try other spirograph products out there. I hope this helps you decide.
brilliant!, 28 Mar 2008
Bought this for my girls even though they are 7 and 9, they absolutely love it! Its easy to set up, uses 2 AAA batteries, turn the dial underneath for the design, slot the pen in one of the holders, press her back and off she spins! if your child is a fan of spirograph etc then thy'll like this. makes loads of different patterns.
Not impressed, 05 Jan 2008
After all the ads on the popular kids TV channels, Santa finally left my daughter "Daisy" to her delight. However this was short lived. She was fiddly too set up and work, not good for a excitable child on Christmas morning and the patterns were nothing like on the ads. The pens are rubbish and don't last long at all. It didn't live up to what she had seen and has since been left untouched - in all disapointing!
'stickers and stones', 24 Feb 2008
This is a great kit - I'm buying a couple more to have in the cupboard for party presents. A rare craft activity that's equally good for girls and boys! I'd say best suited to 4-7 yr olds, but I had fun making them too. It was such good quality and a brilliant price that I made a point of getting other Crayola kits subsequently as a result of trying this one. Big thumbs up for the funky pebble bugs!
I can't believe it!, 29 Aug 2006
I bought this for my daughter (aged 5). I was a little jubious as I thought it is 'just decorating rocks', how wrong I was!!!! This kit provided hours of fun!! Included is 5 rocks, colouring pens, card bodies for the bugs and their wobbly eyes. A really nice touch is the 'snakes and ladders' style game sheet, card counters and dice included that you can play with after the decorating has finished.
I now have 4 pet rocks on my windowsill, and very nice they are too!
Great 'til the pens run out., 28 Nov 2008
My 7 year old son was given this for Christmas and really enjoyed playing with it, until the Glow Markers quickly ran out. No shop sells the refills, you have to order them from Crayola, who are currently out of stock. The Glow board has sat for months on the shelf unused and has been a waste of money. I would have recommended it if the refills had been readily available, but without them it is useless.
Washable!, 10 Nov 2008
Great pens for young children. Wash off hands with soap and water without lots of scrubbing. Come straight off clothes in wash.
the mess is grease not colour.., 04 Sep 2007
My 3 year old girl got that as a present and she was initially thrilled with the novelty of it. The colour doesn't run so it's "mess free" colourwise but as the paste in the pots is grease, everything gets greasy. The sponges also need regular wash as my daughter used the same sponge for all the colours and later pictures ended all orangy..It's a nice novel idea, but a greasy one too, so I'm not very impressed. Also my daughter stopped using it as soon as the novelty weaned...4 stars for the novelty of it...Crayola keep trying...
Disappointing but not messy at all, 12 Mar 2007
Well my 4 year old today daughter has only done 3 pictures so far and the orange paint has run out already. I imagine she will be colouring most of the remaining pictures in with her colouring pencils at this rate! No mess though, so that can't be bad and she is certainly enjoying herself. Just don't expect it to last long.
excellent idea for toddlers, 03 Feb 2006
This is one of the best art toys i have bought for my 2 year old. No mess at all, it comes with a book, 2 sponges and the "paint" pallet with 6 colours. No messy hands and definately no stained clothes or carpets.
What a fab invention !, 23 Aug 2005
I bought this for my daughter (she is 3 and half) today and she absolutely love it ! Painting is real fun not messy at all because all you do is dab a sponge into the paint then onto a picture wait a bit and there we have a fab coloured picture !(paint is not a real paint but some greasy material)which does not stain or leak -does not make a mess at all ! However it`s a little pricey for what you get(2 sponges and 1 colouring book with 24 pages). The trick is that this is only type of the book which works with this particular paint.

Not gigantic!, 20 Nov 2008
This is a really good colouring book, lots of simple pictures to colour in. However this book is not gigantic in size, I think they mean gigantic in the number of pages. Its a normal A4 size book. But well worth the money.
Fun Colouring Book, 16 Nov 2008
Excellent colouring book with big bold line drawings. Team up with chunky Crayola crayons - keeps a 2 1/2 year old happy for the best part of an hour at a time on a wet day - and that takes some doing!
Very poor, 25 Nov 2008
Don't bother buying this item! I just did, and, instead of 24 crayons in a nice round container as pictured, I received (very late) three cardboard packets of crayons. Not a nice present for a two-year-old.
Perfect to colour with!, 25 Nov 2008
My two nephews love these crayons, which keeps them busy for hours. They are nice and chunky to handle, so they are perfect for small hands.
My advice is to get a large colouring book- to prevent them drawing on walls etc.
The crayons will last for ages!
Just right size, 01 Oct 2007
My little boy has had these since he was one and were now on our second set.He loves colouring and drawing so these are perfect.When they came i thought they would be longer but in fact they are just the right size for little hands.And he loves it even more now he can tell me the colours of them.
Perfect for little people, 19 Jul 2007
These crayons are perfect for little people. I bought these crayons when my daughter was 12 months old and she loves them. She is now nearly 2 and she has not managed to break or snap any yet. They are lovely and chunky for little hands to grip. They have a great selection of colours.
We kept a few seperate in her changing bag, as they are a brilliant idea if you get stuck in a traffic jam, or to keep them amused in the highchair if you are eating out. These are a must have and travel everywhere with us!
My little girl loves these so much I have now bought her a new set.
The only drawback is that they do take a bit of elbow grease to remove from the telly, walls, furniture etc. But so far I have managed to remove any little accidents! I'm not sure that they would from wallpaper though, as luckily her accidents have been easy clean surfaces.
If you have dogs, make sure these stay off the floor or there could be tears. For some reason my dogs seem to love eating stray crayons.

Excellent starter pens, 20 Nov 2008
These pens are fantastic. My little boy is 2 and he has no trouble with these. We gave up on crayons and pencils as all he wanted to do was chew on them when teething but he has never tried that with these. The tips are pads and not actually pen nibs which means when he stabs onto paper it causes no damage unlike nibbed pens where the nib would disappear inside. The best thing of all though - superwashable. It doesnt matter how much he gets on his hands or other surfaces, this ink wipes off very easily using baby wipes or just soap and water. I tried a supermarkets own brand of these and regretted it as struggled to wash the ink from his hands. He can get lids off easily and they provide hours of fun for him and easy for us to join in and teach him colours, shapes, numbers, letters - whatever you want really. If I have one niggle its with the shape. Would be better if they could make a shape where they wouldnt keep rolling off table, but that's a minor niggle and I may apply elastic bands to help prevent this.

Awesome colours!, 04 Sep 2007
This product is spot on! Great value, great quality and lots of fun. The plastic case seems to be quite durable and the pens click into place easily. The colours are brilliant and when you first open the case it definitely gives you the wow-factor seeing all the colours neatly laid out. We'd already had a few of these twistables but when I saw this neat collection I just couldn't resist it. Unlike ordinary crayons, which can easily break into smaller pieces, these twistable crayons last for a very long time, especially if you carefully put them back in the carry-case after each use. It makes a great present too, perfect for boys or girls, looks more expensive than it really is and the case is easy to wrap up. The manufacturer's recommended age is 4+ but we've had these pens since my son was 2.5 and they seem perfectly safe to me, safer than ordinary crayons, in fact.

Great 'til the pens run out., 28 Nov 2008
My 7 year old son was given this for Christmas and really enjoyed playing with it, until the Glow Markers quickly ran out. No shop sells the refills, you have to order them from Crayola, who are currently out of stock. The Glow board has sat for months on the shelf unused and has been a waste of money. I would have recommended it if the refills had been readily available, but without them it is useless.
Washable!, 10 Nov 2008
Great pens for young children. Wash off hands with soap and water without lots of scrubbing. Come straight off clothes in wash.
the mess is grease not colour.., 04 Sep 2007
My 3 year old girl got that as a present and she was initially thrilled with the novelty of it. The colour doesn't run so it's "mess free" colourwise but as the paste in the pots is grease, everything gets greasy. The sponges also need regular wash as my daughter used the same sponge for all the colours and later pictures ended all orangy..It's a nice novel idea, but a greasy one too, so I'm not very impressed. Also my daughter stopped using it as soon as the novelty weaned...4 stars for the novelty of it...Crayola keep trying...
Disappointing but not messy at all, 12 Mar 2007
Well my 4 year old today daughter has only done 3 pictures so far and the orange paint has run out already. I imagine she will be colouring most of the remaining pictures in with her colouring pencils at this rate! No mess though, so that can't be bad and she is certainly enjoying herself. Just don't expect it to last long.
excellent idea for toddlers, 03 Feb 2006
This is one of the best art toys i have bought for my 2 year old. No mess at all, it comes with a book, 2 sponges and the "paint" pallet with 6 colours. No messy hands and definately no stained clothes or carpets.
What a fab invention !, 23 Aug 2005
I bought this for my daughter (she is 3 and half) today and she absolutely love it ! Painting is real fun not messy at all because all you do is dab a sponge into the paint then onto a picture wait a bit and there we have a fab coloured picture !(paint is not a real paint but some greasy material)which does not stain or leak -does not make a mess at all ! However it`s a little pricey for what you get(2 sponges and 1 colouring book with 24 pages). The trick is that this is only type of the book which works with this particular paint.
Excellent starter pens, 20 Nov 2008
These pens are fantastic. My little boy is 2 and he has no trouble with these. We gave up on crayons and pencils as all he wanted to do was chew on them when teething but he has never tried that with these. The tips are pads and not actually pen nibs which means when he stabs onto paper it causes no damage unlike nibbed pens where the nib would disappear inside. The best thing of all though - superwashable. It doesnt matter how much he gets on his hands or other surfaces, this ink wipes off very easily using baby wipes or just soap and water. I tried a supermarkets own brand of these and regretted it as struggled to wash the ink from his hands. He can get lids off easily and they provide hours of fun for him and easy for us to join in and teach him colours, shapes, numbers, letters - whatever you want really. If I have one niggle its with the shape. Would be better if they could make a shape where they wouldnt keep rolling off table, but that's a minor niggle and I may apply elastic bands to help prevent this.
WORTH THE WAIT, 29 Oct 2008
DON,T EXPECT IT ON TIME BUT WHEN IT COMES IT REALLY IS GREAT FOR KIDS JUST LOOK OUT FOR THE P+P (PLAME IT ON ROYAL-MAIL) NOT THE WAREHOUSE
Awesome colours!, 04 Sep 2007
This product is spot on! Great value, great quality and lots of fun. The plastic case seems to be quite durable and the pens click into place easily. The colours are brilliant and when you first open the case it definitely gives you the wow-factor seeing all the colours neatly laid out. We'd already had a few of these twistables but when I saw this neat collection I just couldn't resist it. Unlike ordinary crayons, which can easily break into smaller pieces, these twistable crayons last for a very long time, especially if you carefully put them back in the carry-case after each use. It makes a great present too, perfect for boys or girls, looks more expensive than it really is and the case is easy to wrap up. The manufacturer's recommended age is 4+ but we've had these pens since my son was 2.5 and they seem perfectly safe to me, safer than ordinary crayons, in fact.
Leave it to Crayola to save the day!, 16 Oct 2007
Ah... Crayola... what will you think of next? This one's a winner for many reasons. The concept is brilliant in that the children can use markers (like they see their older siblings doing), but are not able to ruin the walls, sofa, etc. in the process. You use clear ink markers to color the book and the colors appear as you draw. The color is in the pen, not on the paper, so it does leave some creativity to your children in choosing what colors they want to use where. I took this with me on a recent plane trip as a "keep busy" toy... no marking up the plane seats and it kept the kids busy for a while. I do hope that Crayola expands on this product to include more books, as mentioned in a previous review. Great CLEAN fun!!!!
Brilliant - but we want more!, 12 Mar 2007
I bought this for my daughter when she was 4 and she loved it so much she never wanted it to end -so much so she allowed herself to do one picture a day to make it last longer!! Only very special friends were allowed to do it with her. My only gripe therefore is that Crayola has only done the one pad She has the plain paper pad too, but it is not the same. Still excellent play value and no mess!!
How clever is this?, 24 Apr 2006
I got one of these for my two year old because he doesn't always know where to scribble. So far the walls, sofa and dining room table have all suffered from the wrath of conventional colouring pens. But no more! This clever system lets him use these pens only on the paper supplied because they don't mark anything else - not even his hands or face. The other clever thing is that you can't go over the lines because the pens don't work on the paper outside of the line drawings. All in all this is the most ingenious art toy for youngsters that I have ever come accross.
