Fun Paint Set
I bought this paint for my 4-year-old daughter for Christmas. I don't like paint. I don't have any in the house. It's just too messy. Then I saw this product and thought I would give it a try. I know she loves to paint and this seemed like a good compromise for us. She tried it out and we are both very happy with this product. The brush lights up in the color of the paint pot that you hold it over, so you know what you will be getting on your brush. Then you paint it on the special paper and the paint magically appears. I like that when you dip the brush into another color you don't really get any mixing of the colors on the page. The colors come out bright and it looks like regular paint even after it dries. It doesn't matter if the gel from the paint pots get on clothes or carpet, because it's clear and easy to clean up. The whole system is east to clean and everything stores together. This is certainly a hit in my house, for both my daughter and myself.

What a dissapointment!
My sister bought this toy for my daughter for Christmas because my daughter LOVES to paint. Even though it says ages 5+, my 4 yr old daughter is WAY too advanced in her artwork to use this toy.

Color Wonder products are really only artistically suitable for toddlers. Children can't see what they are making because it takes a few seconds for the colors to appear. The brush is also very clunky and the paint was sticky, so she was not even able to make the simplist shapes or write her name.

The colors are very muted - "red" is actually a washed out pink. This wouldn't be a problem but they don't match the colors on the lids. My daughter waited and waited for it to "finish" turning from clear into the color shown, but only the yellow and purple are bright.

The brush doesn't light up except when it is next to the paint jar. The box clearly shows the brush lighting up over the paper while painting - so maybe this one is defective. It might have been more fun if she could have painted with the light up brush. We would have taken it back, but all the stores are closed on Christmas day!!

My daughter was constantly frustrated - despite that, she TRIED really hard to like this new toy from her favorite aunt.

It's only the day after Christmas, she only has 5 or 6 scribbly looking paintings, the paint is over half gone, and the batteries are already dead!

What a dissapointment!

Bad for lefties & expensive supplies
Both my kids are lefties and I didn't realize this product was really for right-handed kids. The brush attaches to the right side of the pain base instead of in the middle like many other products. In the picture the child is holding the brush with his left hand, but he is to the side of the paint set not in front of it as the product is intended to be used. I would not recommend this product for a lefty.

Also, you have to use their paint and paper. That is significantly more expensive than basic paints. Im not sure cleanup is actually easier. You clean up paint with color or this colorless form, but there is still 'paint' to clean up.

Fun factor- both my kids love this. It is more fun than basic paint. They definitely prefer this to regular paint!

My kids would give this product 5 stars. I give it 2 stars because it is awkward for a lefty to use. The supplies are very expensive and cant be substituted. I couldn't find extra paint or paper where I bought the product either. I worry about finding supplies. I would not have bought it but it was the only thing my daughter asked santa for.
