Megasketcher for a 2.5YO?

[mamadiva]

Would you buy it for a christmas present?

Looks like the toys are suitable for 3+ years ...

We bought our DD a pink one from the ELC (I don't think she was the magical 3 yrs old at the time ) but it is a favourite toy...

We bought ds one of these a while back - he's only 18 months but loves it - he draws lots of sqiggley lines snakes

DD2 is 13mths and loves playing with her sisters, she also likes her Aquadraw.

definitely. We had a version with stencils (letters, numbers , pictures, shapes etc) which were great

yes, Megasketchers are great. Much better than Aquadraw.

We have an aquadraw he got it in june but never touches it played with it once.

Megasjetch, magnadoodle has been our most used toy from about 2yo.
Make sure the pen is securely fastened and remove any magnets until after 3yo. Aquadraw bombed.

Our 4 yo now practices her writing on it, so it had longevity.

sorry megasketch

my kids are 6 and 9 and they refuse to get rid of theirs
its a good toy

My DS1 got the ELC super scribbler when he was 2yrs, it has been the most played with toy we have. DS2 loves it and DS1 (now 4.8yrs) still practices his writing on it.
Well worth it.
Also have Aquadraw, which is a hit as well.

Have just bought the Super Scribbler. Anything that prevents more crayon on the wall is worth it in my book!

don't count on it! Ours have thomas ones, they love them. Agree that they have a lot more play value than aquadraw. I still spent this morning cleaning crayon off the tv though!
