Review on Melissa Doug Patrol Scratch 3 Pack by Jonathan Davenport

My kids aged 3-6 really enjoyed this activity. The wooden scraping tool is durable and perfect for little hands. My kids spent a long time working on this at the coffee table, much longer than regular coloring books. It may have been new, but I think there was something about the mystery of unveiling the hidden image and the physical labor of scratching that held her captive longer than usual. There were black shavings everywhere, but they were easily removed with a handheld vacuum or a broom and dustpan. I was afraid it would stick to the carpet, but even there it was easy to remove.
