Scratch and Sketch Furry Friends

Fun little book that's fine to read too.

It’s very addictive and satisfying. I like it a lot.

This is a nice and thoughtful gift for a child with anxiety. It is a furry sketch book and can be quite relaxing. My older granddaughter uses them to help her anxiety. The price was reasonable.

Kids love it.

My grandkids (and their parents as I see them drawing on these too) love these books. For the younger ones I prefer the pages that already have designs/figures similar to a coloring book on them to color in. Some of the Scratch and Sketch books do not have this coloring book designs and are black blank pages so note if the one you purchase does or has printed designs. The 13 years and older children prefer to do their own artwork designs and there are sketch books for them as well. I bought these to amuse the children on the airplane and later church and it worked great! They were busy, quiet, and happy drawing. A pencil type tool is included (just no lead in it). They loves to see what color is underneath the black. Plus there are a LOT of choices to choose from. Again note some have the coloring book designs and others are blank pages.

My daughter had one of these scratch & sketch books & was HOOKED. So we ordered a few more, based on the topic of the book (great artists, rainforest, furry friends). I failed to realize this is a book that already has the patterns printed on the black scratch & sketch surface. So there is a WHITE pattern on the black page, and when the pattern is scratched away it reveals the glitter beneath. This, to me, blows the whole point of these books. Calling this an art activity book is like calling connect the dots or a coloring book art. The description of the book does say there are white patterns that, when removed, reveal the shiny colors beneath. I didn't take the time to read that, so I'm not slamming the book with a one star rating. I just want buyers to realize what they are getting--and if you're like me, you're more likely to read reviews before full descriptions of products. If you've got a little one who wants to play along while big brother or sister is doing his or her art, then this is the book for you. If you have a budding artist who likes to dabble in the scratch & sketch medium, pass on this one.

These are wonderful books for kids. I cannot say enough good about them. They are unique and creative and my one concern was when they scratch off the black that it would get everywhere but somehow it doesn't. These are great quality strong binders thick pages and lots of fun things to do. I highly recommend this for any child of any age really. I did one of the pages with my daughter and had a blast myself :-)

These scratch and sketch books are such easy and fun crafts for kids or adults. It is not only great for road trips but also if you have to wait in a doctors office for an appointment. Perfect size to fit into Mom's purse for hours of kid fun! It is very relaxing and keeps the attention of children. I would highly recommend buying any of these products. You will be more than satisfied!
