About Melissa & Doug My First Paint With Water Coloring Book: Animals
Overall Feedback:
77% positive
75% liked how easy it was to clean up, while 25% found it messy
I use the water brushes from the Melissa & Doug Water Wow books which put out the perfect amount of water and eliminate the need for a cup of water that could be knocked over.
This is the best alternative to using actual paints, indicating that it is a clean and safe option for kids to use.
The product is difficult to wash off hands and the pages are too thin.
The design of the book is not entertaining and the smudge with water feature is not what many people are looking for.
68% praised the vibrant colors, while 32% found them dull
I love that the scenes are made up of almost only primary colors and it's nice to see an array of animals doing interesting things.
When I put water on the picture, the color dots spread out and create the perfect color.
I was not satisfied with the color quality of the kids paint with water kit. I thought the pages would be blank and the color would appear, but there were tiny ink designs that were the color.
62% praised the ability to let kids' creativity shine, but 38% found it restrictive
We enjoyed a creative activity with a cup of water and simple paintbrushes for an hour without any mess or cleanup. Both genders aged 5 to 9 enjoyed the activity for only $5.
I remove the pages from the book and tape the corners down to a piece of hardboard with removable double-sided tape.
I enjoy watching my son swipe the color across the paper after dumping the cup of water out, it's very fun.
The product is messy and difficult to wash off hands. The pages are also too thin.
79% appreciated the easy-to-follow instructions, while 21% found them confusing
Most pages have large areas, reducing the risk of color spreading. The directions advise using water only in the largest sections if the child struggles with staying in the lines.
I find it fun to dump the cup of water on the paper and swipe the color across the paper with my hands.
The water painting kit for kids is messy, difficult to wash off hands, and the pages are too thin.
64% liked the soft and sturdy brushes, but 36% found them flimsy
Using q-tips works better than the included paintbrush for painting.
I find the brush not good at blending colors.
63% appreciated the convenient storage case, but 37% found it lacking
I like this product because it has good storage and organization features for kids-paint-with-water-kits and does not require taking color from somewhere else and putting it on the picture.
I remove the pages from the book and tape the corners down to a piece of hardboard with removable double-sided tape for storage.
Before applying water, I find the scenes visually appealing with shapes, stripes, and color variation.
I was not satisfied with the product as it did not meet my expectations. I thought the pages would be blank and the color would appear, but instead, there were tiny ink designs that were the color.
