4.0 out of 5 stars
A toy that doesn't give parents a headache, September 15, 2005
= Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars = Educational:4.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Little People Doodle Pro (Toy)
Because the pen comes attached to the doodle, you don't have to worry about losing it. You can lose the magnets and then find them again as I found one this morning. We got this for my son before he was 2 and he continues to enjoy it now that he is 2 1/2. This is one of a handful of toys he plays with again and again.
I've seen bad pens where the tip was shoved in. So far, we have not had this problem. This is not an issue with every doodle and if it is a problem, I'd exchange it rather than just take it back because it does work well when you get a good one. My son draws at all angles (he's two) and it writes well. He's able to erase the drawing without help (it might be harder for those who aren't two-years-old yet, but they catch on quickly).
We've had toys where a pen or item was attached and it was too short -- Doodle Pro doesn't have this problem.

pen doesn't work, January 25, 2005
= Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars = Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars = Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Little People Doodle Pro (Toy)
I was very disappointed with this product. My 2 1/2 yr. old twins got this toy for Christmas & were very frustrated with it because the pen doesn't work if you hold it at an angle. You must hold the pen straight for it to work. My 5 yr. old didn't like it either. I ended up returning the toy for a different magna doodle with a better pen.

These are great toys but this model isn't the best.., October 25, 2005

This review is from: Little People Doodle Pro (Toy)
After playing with these at other kids houses every time we see one, we decided to get one for our son's 2nd birthday. We thought the Little People edition was extra cute, especially the soccer ball eraser. However my first complaint is that the pen tip only works when you aim straight down, which little kids don't know how to do. Second, it takes like four swipes to make the board look completely erased and third, both the stamps and pen look faded when drawing compared to other Doodle sets I've tried (in other words, the marks look darker on other models). One more thing that's annoying is the Little People guy comes too far into the drawing space. While this item is cute, we're returning ours and going with a basic model which appears to be a better option.
