Turn the invisible into visionary works of art with the Crayola Mess-Free Color Wonder Magic Light Brush. Similar to classic activities with invisible ink, this toy comes with clear paints that only appear when applied to Color Wonder Paper. Making it fun to paint, even in the dark, the special light-up brush magically glows the color of the paint being used. Designed for children ages five and up, the Wonder Magic Light Brush is a fun and magical introduction -- or reintroduction -- to art for young girls and boys.
Look Mom, No Mess!
With a battery-operated light, the fiber-optic bristles of the light brush illuminate the color of the paint. To get started, kids can simply pick one of the six classic-colored paints to begin painting. While the paint appears clear on its own, the brush will glow the paint color to guide them as they draw. After a couple of seconds on the page, the invisible paint turns to reveal its true color. Best of all for parents, the Wonder Magic Light Brush doesn't make a mess at all. Working only on specially coated Color Wonder Paper, the colors won't appear on skin, walls, carpet, or clothing. If you run out, more Color Wonder Paper and paint refills (including fun tropical colors) are sold separately.

Simple is Good
Durable, compact, and easy to use, the Wonder Magic Light Brush proves that arts-and-crafts time doesn't have to be a headache. The connected paint pots snap firmly into the plastic orange-and-purple Color Wonder base and the light-up brush is attached by a flexible cord and clips snugly in its resting station, so you don't ever have to worry about it getting lost. While it's strong enough to survive plenty of child's play, the plastic has rounded corners to ensure safety.
Other design pluses include a built-in carrying handle on one side for quick portability. At the other end a light-gray tablet clip holds your paper in place while you're painting.
Time-tested Fun
With its light-up brush and colors that reveal only with special paper, this Crayola set brings new life to an activity kids have always loved. Great for beginning artists, the Wonder Magic Light Brush is good at painting broad colorful strokes, and it's exciting to see as the colors appear a second or two after drawn on the page. The brush bristles aren't fine enough for very detailed work, but as a toy, even young masters should enjoy this new way of playing with colors.
What's in the Box
Light-up brush unit, 6 Color Wonder paint colors, and 30-page Color Wonder paper tablet.

I got this for my 5 yr old grand daughter's birthday. I read the reviews AFTER I got the product and was worried because some said it didn't light up!? BUT it DOES after the brush is held over or dipped into the paint that comes with it. It took about 10 seconds for it to 'recognize' the paint color at first then she was off to the races. The only draw back is there isn't alot of the paint and it's a clear gel, but you can buy more of it and different colors than the primary ones it comes with. The brush is 'chunky' so it's perfect for little hands. Says it won't work on any other surface like other paper other than what comes with it and that remains true. So there is NO mess or accidents of carpets, tables, bare floors, etc. I'd highly reccomend this product to anyone IF you can find it. That was one very difficult thing we ran into. Found it at Johnny's toys store in Covington Ky and it was the LAST ONE but they held it for me. :)

Both my kids are lefties and I didn't realize this product was really for right-handed kids. The brush attaches to the right side of the pain base instead of in the middle like many other products. In the picture the child is holding the brush with his left hand, but he is to the side of the paint set not in front of it as the product is intended to be used. I would not recommend this product for a lefty.
Also, you have to use their paint and paper. That is significantly more expensive than basic paints. Im not sure cleanup is actually easier. You clean up paint with color or this colorless form, but there is still 'paint' to clean up.
Fun factor- both my kids love this. It is more fun than basic paint. They definitely prefer this to regular paint!
My kids would give this product 5 stars. I give it 2 stars because it is awkward for a lefty to use. The supplies are very expensive and cant be substituted. I couldn't find extra paint or paper where I bought the product either. I worry about finding supplies. I would not have bought it but it was the only thing my daughter asked santa for.

This uses the Color Wonder Finger paint And Coloring Book. (Which to me isn't really 'mess free'. ) Add batteries to the paintbrush and the brush lights up the color of the finger paint as it is dipped in the color. The directions say 'clean the brush after dipping it into each color'!! For a 4 yr old they want to mix all the colors, and they still want to put their fingers in it, to finger paint.
The 'light brush' is neat when it lights up, but to put batteries in, having to wipe the brush clean after dipping into each paint, then having to wash the brush after each use, you might was well just get the plan old finger paints. My child wanted to still put her fingers into the 'mess free paint' too, so I then had to wash her all up. I didn't think this was 'mess free' as advertised, a bit time consuming cleaning, and why spend the extra money for a 'light brite' brush you have to clean.

Cute idea but wasn't worth the $$
Worked for about 5 minutes before my 5 year old son lost interest. Because you can't see the paint clearly, he was using way too much product and pretty much emptied the containers... Read more

Love it!
First I want to say the only reason this has a 3 star educational value is because I'm not sure how it would be educational no matter how fun it is. Read more
