Great entertainment in the car or on the plane. Not as messy as I expected either. We have the fairy one and the princess one. Princess one is better for younger kids (like my 4 year-old). The fairy one requires you to draw your own picture, it's not traced out.

My daughters 4 and 7 love this scratch book. It is a great activity for a boring day at home or for a long car or plan trip. The 7 yo was able to copy the pictures but the 4 yo made her own pictures instead of copying. I have given these books as gifts as well.

This is excellent my daughter is very artistic so it has been good but I recommend that you have a little artistic ability or it could be not so fun.
