One of the favorite Christmas gifts the 2 y/o received has been her Aquadoodle Draw 'N Doodle Mat. It's a pretty simple concept really. The felt tipped pen is filled with water, and then is used to draw 'n doodle on the mat. The mat is nothing more than thin white fabric stretched over a bright blue plastic background. The water causes the fabric to cling to the background and shows the bright blue through. The toy only uses a small enough amount of water that the 2 y/o couldn't possibly make a big mess with it, and the whole thing can be used over and over as the mat dries out.
Pretty ingenious. Maybe it's only because I'm a big dumb male, but I have to wonder if the whole concept wasn't conceived in the middle of a wet T-shirt contest!!

Hi there.
ReplyDeleteCame here from the comments section of Crass Pollination. Just thought I would drop by your blog.
You responded to one of my comments over there. I am going back to nursing school for some of the same reasons as you, I already have a degree and can not get a job. I have wanted to do nursing for awhile and now since I can not have a job I figure I have time to go to nursing school lol
Anyway, I'll visit your blog often and good luck with school.
Anthony
that is sooo funny! And a pretty clever toy...I want one!
