We bought the Spyro Gyro pen for a Hanukkah present. My daughter was very excited to use it however, two of the pen tip colors did not work properly. It is also difficult to find the correct amount of pressure to place on the pen to get the desired shape. I would not recommend this for young children. My daughter is 9 and is having trouble.

Seemed like it would be fun, probably would be if it wasn't a piece of trash. Comes with several refill inks. That's good since it runs out of ink after 2-3 drawings. My 8 year old would need the skills of Picasso to make this do anything. The old Spyro Graph had a perimeter piece to give it shape, this is just a pen out of control. Don't waste you money!Spyro Gyro Motorized Art Pen

This is a great idea and my kids loved the pen initially, but it broke after the first day and never worked again.
