Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought this for my granddaughter's 3rd birthday, and not knowing exactly what it was going to be like, I was pleasantly surprised when I brought it to her, and we opened it, and she started playing with it. When I realized that all I had to do was fill the little Magic Pens with water and give them to her, I thought to myself, "oh, that was easy". Then when I knelt down on the floor and started to use the Magic Pens myself, I was so excited because I saw that I was drawing pictures like an artist, and I cannot draw!!! There are hidden pictures in the mat, and when you get the picture wet with the Magic Pen, the picture appears like magic! There is also a blank space in the center where you can free draw whatever you want. Plus, there are letters all around the edge that you can use the Magic Pen on to make them appear, so that you are writing the letters of the alphabet!!! It's truly wonderful! I was having such a good time, I didn't want to stop playing with it, and I'm 70 years old!!! Also, moms and dads will love that their child will not get paint on any of the mat's surrounding surfaces because all you are using is water! No mess! When the mat dries, the pictures disappear, and you can start all over again!!! I wish there had been something available like that when my children were little!!
