Aquadoodle PlayMat

The Aquadoodle isn't a pool or tub toy, but without water it's no fun at all. It's just a drawing mat after all, but kids will like the novelty of its disappearing colors. The 81 by 53-inch drawing mat is large enough for several kids to doodle on at a time, using the included magic marker pens that do not transfer color to other surfaces (to our knowledge …). Color from the pens appears when water touches the mat; it then fades out without a trace in 60 seconds or so. That's it: no ink, no paint, and no mess.Diane Beall

From the Manufacturer
Encourage the creativity even at the youngest age. The Aqua Doodle is a child's version of Magna Doodle only the children draw with Water. The image magically appears ad after approx. 20 seconds the area dries and color disappears. Parents fill the pen holders with water and wet the stamp pad. The child draws. comes with storage pouch, magic pen, and drawing mat. Big enough for 2 to play on.
