Product Description

Editorial Review

Budding artists who are also fans of Nick Jr.'s show Blue's Clues will get a big kick out of painting with their favorite dog, Blue. This sponge painting kit features nine different sponge shapes (including a paw print, which kids can stamp to signify clues—just like on the show) and a blue, paw-shaped palette that holds four paints (included) and water for mixing. A 25-inch paper roll provides a canvas for kids' designs and a smock adorned by the infamous Blue protects clothes from paint. A colorful instruction booklet shows how to use the stamps to make 29 different pictures, from trains to boats to bees. And, in case children desire to switch mediums midstream, the kit also comes with two jumbo-sized crayons. All artist tools come packed in a hard, blue locking plastic case with wheels and an extendable handle so kids can easily pull this activity suitcase to a friend's house. --Cristina Vaamonde

This review is from: Blue's Clues Sponge Painting Rolling Case (Toy)

I bought this for a 4 year old girl. She seems mildly interested in it despite the fact that the "paint" is some kind of very hard substance and doesn't come off on the sponges so making the fun pictures is difficult unless you're very persistent and have the PERFECT amount of water in your sponge. Also, many of the sponges are too big for the circles of paint provided so its hard to use those particular ones for your picture. It does come with a cute apron which she loves to wear but I wouldn't recommend this as a sponge painting toy. You just end up making a big watery mess on a piece of paper but don't get the satisfaction of actually painting.
