🎨 Melissa & Doug Refillable Reusable Activity Set Review

My daughter (2 years old) loves it! She can't make a mess so I can easily give them to her when I need to get some dinner. The colors are very vibrant - she loves the pictures. I would give 5 stars but they are not very durable. They are scratched fairly easily and although the images are waterproof the cardboard they are placed on is not waterproof and can get wet and warp. That being said, I'll definitely be buying more.

Great! We use them to keep kids busy in the car or anywhere they need to sit still. The pens/brushes are filled with water so they never dry out. You just add more water. It was worth it a thousandfold. And also when the page dries. turns white again. So kids can use this set over and over again. I have a 6 year old and a 4 year old. They love it! We have another book that is a legal marker (which is dry of course) and when the pages dry the colors stay the same. Which is good if you want to…

Love love love these watercolor rugs for my 2 year old. She loves to paint and can do it in the car, on the plane or on the go. The variety in this set is nice. The surface of the pages will begin to wear down over time, making them less susceptible to water. But what can you expect when it is used a lot! A handy place to keep a paintbrush, but the pages can't be turned and lay flat like a regular notebook. This doesn't seem to bother my daughter and it's nice to have a paint brush with the…

To be honest, knowing that Melissa and Doug make quality products, I expected them to be good. But they still amazed me! They work SO well. The brush doesn't leak, it's easy to fill, feels light in the hand, and releases just enough water to highlight the colors without flooding the page. The colors and hidden images that appear along with the water are bright and cool. And they are reusable! The pages will dry completely and turn white again so you can color them over and over again. And they…

This is great fun for my little one! I found one - it was the only one - at a local pharmacy and bought it for my son on a whim. He loves to! Then I checked out Revain and saw that they have multipacks with (6) different themes. As long as you fill up your water pen, you can use these books anywhere - traveling, at the doctor's, sitting on the couch, lying in bed when your child is unwell, anywhere. I don't fill the brush more than 1/4 full when my son uses it at home. The only problem is that…

I was surprised and disappointed to see that the coloring pages are not double sided. Only 4 of the 8-page booklet are to be colored in. Maybe that's how it is and I missed it? The packaging taped to the boards was a bit confusing at first. I thought there was a hard spine at the end that should have been attached and was afraid I would tear the book apart, but it wasn't. I have a feeling there is a better way to wrap this so you don't have to rip off the back you don't want and try not to…

I bought these for my son as a new activity during quarantine and something we could keep him entertained with on long trips or flights. I love that they are so clean! I can't stress this enough. I don't have to worry about paint, crayons or play dough like other toys. They are also fun and we can look at and point out new things every time we use them. I had to deduct a star for durability. My son is 15 months old so I know he is younger than the estimated age range but he managed to squeeze…

ideal for storage or as a gift! You travel well, with minimal space and effort! We've never had a brush leak water! 🙏🏼If you like to keep some water in the brush's water tank (like us; attention: some water, not a full tank!), grab it and go! They are ideal for car trips, trips to the store, meetings. Any time when you can expect to wait or be distracted can help! We also enjoyed growing up with Melissa & Doug and especially the Water Wow sets. We quickly noticed after the first accident…
