Playskool Magnatab - Free Draw - Learning and Sensory Drawing Tool - for Ages 3+

I got this for my son (9), he's been enjoying it, but surprisingly my teenage daughters (15 and 17) have really taken to playing with it. First-off, the rattling ball-bearings might be a bit too much for taking on an overnight trip, but that seems to add to the appeal. Overall, the noise isn't overwhelming, this just isn't the toy to be playing with right at bedtime. Great design; it's very sturdy and tough, the case is a modern sort of grip, feels like a tablet in a hardcase in the hands. The magnet inside the stylus holder is a good touch, less likely for it to fall out and get lost. This is an excellent toy for keeping a kiddo busy, the little clickity-clack of the metal bearings seems to add to the appeal. the system doesn't hold a ball perfectly, a hard jolt could knock it back down into the tablet, but they do stay in place. My wife works at a head start and took it there, told me the kids really enjoyed it (although in that setting, the ones with the letters might be better). This toy would be great to give to young children in pre-handwriting stages as the holding the stylus could help with developing hand muscles. On the plus side, in a pinch it'll make a great shaker at music time too.

My 5 year old ripped this out of the box and immediately started drawing. At first he was frustrated "erasing" each dot with the back of the pen but quickly realized swiping the side of the pen across the board worked much more efficiently. It keeps him entertained for maybe 10 minutes at a time and as soon as he sets it down my 3 year old picks it up. I love the simplicity of this toy and and the creativity it stimulates. The clicking sound is very satisfying; I've enjoyed drawing with it myself. It is very sturdy and has been dropped, thrown and fought over. We love to bring it in the car and it would likely be good for entertaining kids in a restaurant. It's not a favorite toy but it still get used often.

This Magnatab is fun for the little one! He enjoys pulling the magnets up with the stylus and pushing them back in. I even enjoy pushing them back down. This is great for little learners just getting started on how to draw and such. MESS FREE! Love that it's mess free and everything is contained within the tablet. I think this would be perfect on the go! Keeps him busy for some time! Also like the stylus has a slot, but it may not go back every time! Overall, great sensory toy.

I have to start by saying all 3 of kybkids enjoy playing with this, ages 13, 11 and 3. I keep finding it in my 13 yr olds room. My 3 year old is the one who really enjoys it though. It goes everywhere with us, in the car and even Dr. appointments, it is perfect size and even fits in my purse. I enjoy the Magnatab Free Draw because there is so much hand eye coordination, we are using it weekly in her Occupation therapy. It really seems to be helping all while she thinks she is playing. This is a must have for our house.

This toy is great! All of my kiddos have had a blast trying it out and making different designs. They have been able to figure out how to write different letters, numbers, and shapes. We would definitely recommend this product as a boredom buster, a car ride rescue and a fantastic screen free toy.
