I got this for my 5 yr old grand daughter’s birthday. I read the reviews AFTER I got the product and was worried because some said it didn’t light up!? BUT it DOES after the brush is held over or dipped into the paint that comes with it. It took about 10 seconds for it to ‘recognize’ the paint color at first then she was off to the races. The only draw back is there isn’t alot of the paint and it’s a clear gel, but you can buy more of it and different colors than the primary ones it comes with. The brush is ‘chunky’ so it’s perfect for little hands. Says it won’t work on any other surface like other paper other than what comes with it and that remains true. So there is NO mess or accidents of carpets, tables, bare floors, etc. I’d highly reccomend this product to anyone IF you can find it. That was one very difficult thing we ran into. Found it at Johnny’s toys store in Covington Ky and it was the LAST ONE but they held it for me.
This uses the Color Wonder Finger paint And Coloring Book. (Which to me isn’t really ‘mess free’. ) Add batteries to the paintbrush and the brush lights up the color of the finger paint as it is dipped in the color. The directions say ‘clean the brush after dipping it into each color’!! For a 4 yr old they want to mix all the colors, and they still want to put their fingers in it, to finger paint.
The ‘light brush’ is neat when it lights up, but to put batteries in, having to wipe the brush clean after dipping into each paint, then having to wash the brush after each use, you might was well just get the plan old finger paints. My child wanted to still put her fingers into the ‘mess free paint’ too, so I then had to wash her all up. I didn’t think this was ‘mess free’ as advertised, a bit time consuming cleaning, and why spend the extra money for a ‘light brite’ brush you have to clean.
I was worried what this would be like when my daughter received this as a gift last month. But she absolutely loves it and the brush is great for those little hands too. It is totally mess free and there are refills out there. I have found that Target carries a bigger supply of this than most stores. I just read some reviews about this on here and we haven’t ran down the batteries yet and I have no problems w/ this item at all. I plan to get this for my friends daughter right now and ship it to her for her birthday. This is great for the little ones that want to learn how to paint and get out of that finger painting stage. I hope this review helps and you will be happy with this product I am sure.
