Cra-Z-Art 14608 Retro Magna Doodle

Product Information

I always thought it was a big disappointment - I mean, besides stamp a square, circle and triangle and draw a shaky line with the strange pen that came with it, what could you actually do with it? It's been a great tool for practicing grip and working on hand strength while keeping them entertained during long road trips.

This magnetic drawing board table can be configured in three different ways, making it an exceptionally versatile item. In addition, you'll receive a treasure trove of accessories, including five fruit stamper magnets, six stencils, and two cute stickers. They don't sink back into the liquid because of the thickness of the liquid, and because the particles and liquid are matched to have the same density. The little magnetic drawing board reached a whole new level of fame between 1994 and 2004 when it had a starring role in the sitcom Friends.

The liquid dispersion medium is designed so that the particles can be pulled through the liquid in response to magnetic force applied by the pen or eraser, but they will not change their position (float or sink) due to gravity. One sits within a recess and is attached by a cord and if your child misplaces one, they can play with the other until you find it. The Magna Doodle is a wonderful toy that allows children (of all ages) to draw and re-draw pictures and words without wasting paper or creating chalk dust.

Using a handful of idea cards that come with it (or their own imagination), your little one can take the standalone pen to pull the hundreds of metal beads to the surface to create images and then erase them by pushing the beads back down with their fingers. Team coaches have been known to scribble on them during sports matches, so that they can then hold them up and show the team in action what they want them to do next. When your child is younger, you can extend the legs and use the board in its table form, making it an ideal option for use while sitting on the floor. The liquid is formulated so that the floating particles can be pulled through it in response to the magnetic forces, but not due to gravity.Now, if you move the magnetic pen along the display, the magnet on the pen pulls the tiny particles away from the back side to the front side, forming a line. The brand states it's safe for kids age 3 and up (the beads are contained in the board) , but plenty of reviewers mentioned it's fun for all ages.

Different drawings and writings appeared on it in each episode, and some served as inside jokes for the cast.Features rounded edges to eliminate potential injuries, with the unique back panel design for durability and comfort. The magnetic particles are dark, small and fine (about 10 microns) - This allows them to be seen easily, to stack up and to be nearly unaffected by gravity.

There is a slider at the bottom of a Magna Doodle, and by sliding it back and forth once or twice you erase the screen instantly and completely (also amazing).The toy was originally invented at Pilot Corporation, which registered "Magna Doodle" as a trademark in the U. Helpful review:"This toy that I got for my 4 year old has really helped in getting her comfortable with writing.
