Sprirograph original or sprirograph junior

My just turned 8 year old is really into craft drawing and anything to do with stationery. She's recently got a desk in her room so I was thinking of getting her a sprirograph set for her christmas. I've been looking online and not sure if the junior one is worth it or is she too old for that now? She does have suspected dyspraxia so I was leaning towards the junior one but I couldn't figure out whether it's aimed at much younger children

Hello!
I just bought the original one for my 6 year old, it is for Christmas so no idea if it will be a hit or not. I had no idea there was a junior version! I just had a google, and the junior says from 3+, so definitely aimed at younger kids.

If I were you I would go for the bigger/older version and think about ways to adapt it to make it less fiddly, I was thinking of using blue tack to hold down the outer frame paper to reduce the chance of moving around.
I got it to help with coordination, and to get over a long lasting grudge that no one bought me one....

Also if drawing is the 'thing' this year think about a light box or drawing projector.

Thank you so much. I've just ordered the older one for her

My 5 yr old has the junior one and can use it well. I think an older child would enjoy the original one most. Good choice
