Product Description

Editorial Review
Painting with water colors is usually a messy activity but this compact kit keeps all components contained for a more spill-free painting method that is even easy to bring on the road. The right side of the plastic tray houses a row of nicely balanced crescent-shaped watercolors and a well that, instead of holding sloshing water, contains a neat damp sponge. A tightly closing hard plastic case stores paint, sponges, and brushes during travel. Shaped like crayons, the three brushes in this kit feature innovative and interchangeable sponge tips that, when used with the crescent-shaped paints, can make unique multi-colored rainbow paintings. Brushes stand straight up in the tray to avoid marking tabletops or works in progress. The tray's clipboard holds a sheet of 8-1/2-by-5-1/2-inch paper, which serves as a palette for designs. The kit includes a plastic tray, six paints, three brush holders, six foam brushes in varying sizes, a sponge, and five sheets of paper. These watercolors are not the washable kind so it is advisable that kids wear a smock. --Cristina Vaamonde

1.0 out of 5 stars Big Disappointment!, December 1, 2004

Durability:1.0 out of 5 stars Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 

The "paint" doesn't work very well, and the sponges fall apart. We actually use it for finger painting instead! Save your money.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not worthy of the company name, December 12, 2004

By	Gwen Tompkins "mom in the know" (Houston, TX) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Durability:1.0 out of 5 stars Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 

My 5-year-old son saw this product advertised and was so excited by the concept. I trusted the brand name and ordered it for him. We were so disappointed with the flimsiness of the product as we pulled it out of the box, the tiny portions of paint and paper included. But when we tried to actually use the sponges as advertised, dragging them across the paints, then painting with them, our disappointment grew. We paint together quite a bit, and after one 10-minute session, this thing was abandoned by both mother and child. Buy the biggest box of Crayola crayons, a simple old-fashioned set of watercolors, a nice pad of paper, and a decent-quality paintbrush instead ... you could get that all for the price of this set.

1.0 out of 5 stars Would Not Recommend, March 6, 2005

By	DebbieL - See all my reviews

Durability:1.0 out of 5 stars Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 

This is cheap, cheap, cheap. Sounded like a great concept, but it was extremely frustrating to use - - the sponges don't work well at all, and you can't get any real "color" from them. The paper provided was small and flimsy. I felt bad for my son as we worked together to try and paint. I can't believe I bought him such a junkie set. I agree with the other reviewer, invent in a good brush and a "real" paint set.
