Review Crayola

If you are looking for this type of product, choose the glow board

My kids enjoy art type things, so we try several crayola products a year. This is one I would probably skip. It indicates that it is a "book", but the pages don't turn like a book. It is 4 panels of plastic that you pull out to color on and then put them back in to be held by a red binder. These are clever because your kids work in layers to color a whole picture. It gives it a 3D feel. I like that because it makes them think differently, and more creatively.

All in all we like this type of product. I wouldn't chose this type of thing as the only thing your child would get for Christmas. Additionally, I would mention that we own similar products, the glow dome, and the glow board. If you are looking for this type of product, go with the glow board over the others. It is way easier for the kids to manage on their own for some solo play. Although there are only 2 panels, it is easy to pull them in and out, and fun to use for little hands.

Great Way to Engage Kids Whose Fine Motor Skills Have Lagged

I never really thought I would be calling any toy a godsend, but the Crayola Glow Book has done something for my ten-year-old son that none of his school teachers (and certainly not his art teacher) has been able to do. I've tried, too. I've tried asking, showing, cajoling, ordering, limiting privileges, exaggerated sighing, and using his full name, but my child's penmanship is abysmal and his art skills mostly stink.
