Good but not what is shown in picture
My 2 year old loves to color on this but what I got was not what is shown in the pictures. It is a different mat that doesn't have the abc's and 123 patterns on the edge of the white part which is one of the reasons I wanted this mat but my daughter still loves it

Aquadoodle Draw N Doodle Mat

Great product and also wel priced. My Godson loves it and so does my aunt and uncle haha. No more worrying about the kid painting the wall.

It's okay but ...
I bought this toy two years ago, when my child was 2 years old. She liked it, but the problem is that the mat is too light so it's difficult for the children to hold it down without sliding. So it's an okay toy, especially because is mess-free, but I'm not sure if it's worth 19 bucks.

Worth Buying
It's a good learning toy especially for ages 2 and above, when the kids start to scribble all over. It's not messy unlike other drawing boards with markers so u can be assured that ur home will be free from scribblings on the walls. I recommend it to all those kids who love scribbling and eager to start writting.

The perfect Christmas gift for a toddler!
Highly recommend this product. Our niece was 2 yrs old, had lots of toys and books already; so didn't know what to get her for Christmas, 2007. Stopped in to visit in February and her parents told me that this is something that she still plays with every day. Don't need to worry about loosing caps on the pens & drying out, 'cuz the "ink" is water. Don't have to worry about accidentally marking up clothes, the rug, etc. I purchased extra pens, too, so that when her cousins come over, there isn't any arguing over a pen or if one pen gets lost. Sure wish this was around when my kids were younger.
