Stylish! Works great! Fun for drawing, native for the kiddos to use. Corded pencil stays w/the pad!
Nice, sturdy-looking table. (Plenty sturdy for drawing. Was nervous about it being strong enough to support a lightweight kiddo who might try to sit on it . . though that was apparently tested successfully. <phew!> Wouldn’t recommend for that to happen a lot, though we were pleasantly pleased.) The toy is extremely native to use, so doesn’t seem to require any real instructions, yet there is a bonus, easy-to-follow, 3-step process printed onto the edge of the box to share its operation: Turn on, draw, erase. Can draw with the attached plastic pencil, or with fingernails, or really with anything that is not sharp and can be safely and smoothly dragged against the drawing surface without risking scratching or staining it. The drawing surface even responds to creative fingers that are wrapped inside of warm winter gloves. Versatile. The included legs are nicely-designed and fit very well to support the drawing surface as a stand. The assembled drawing creativity center looks quite stylish, like a personal table; perfectly toddler-sized. One favorite part is that the drawing pencil is connected with the drawing tablet by a cord, so it won’t get lost or “walk away, never to be seen again”. The pencil then stores (snaps in) underneath, quite conveniently. Kiddos started drawing on it right away. Once finished with a creation, there’s a prominent “erase” button (indicated by a trash can icon) that can be pressed to quickly and easily erase the drawing field. …There’s a small and easy for fingers to operate selection switch underneath the edge of the drawing pad that enables or disables the “erase” button’s ability to clear out what’s been drawn. (With the switch disabling the erase button, the erase / trash can button has no effect on the current image and it’s still possible for the kiddos to continue drawing on the display.) That’s a really neat feature, for protecting a current ‘masterpiece’ drawing (from erasure), until it’s comfortably time to erase it. One wish/preference would be for the switch that activates/deactivates the ‘erase’ (trash can) button to be more-clearly labeled, to make it more obvious which way the switch should be switched to protect the contents of the drawing field. It is labeled (and easy to figure out by trial-and-error, of course), though almost invisibly, so we may add a label or a tactile dot alongside of it to make its current setting (“erase feature on/off”) more easily distinguishable. Quick note: There’s a user-replaceable CR-2032 battery that is easy to access, in the event it one day needs to be replaced. .:. This ‘table-integrated’ drawing pad is quite a nice spin on this type of creativity toy. And the coloring and design and supporting legs give it an appealing appearance. Well-designed, well-constructed, very nice materials, it works great!, and is engaging for kiddos who like to draw, erase, and then draw some more. The corded drawing pencil is a favorite feature for us (making less to have to ‘keep track of and mind’, as toy accessories go). Also, that is uses a fairly standard-sized CR-2032 button cell battery and that it is easy to access to replace is a nice bonus. Read more
