I bought these markers for my grandson. He really enjoys them. They are almost the same as Blendy Pens, but they are a lot cheaper. He is 4 years old and has made a lot of pictures using the markers. They keep him very busy and make him feel good about the great pictures he can create.

I bought these markers for my 5 1/2 year old boy. They haven't worked out very well at all. It's hard for him to push the button down long enough to get the top color on the marker. Even when he is able to get the color to transfer over, there isn't any mixing of colors. The top color just replaces the marker color rather than blending the two. So, you end up with two very distinct colors when you are using them and the top color runs out. Also, as another reviewer pointed out, the marker is so short, that we have already run out of ink in a couple after he's been using them for less than a week! He just ends up very frustrated. I would never recommend these markers.

Those markers look cute, but very difficult to use. First, the top button is not easy to press down enough to mix the color for little fingers. Second, the paint-side markers are short, they runs out very soon while the mix-side still have plenty of water in them. I think the idea is good but very poor design.
