Rollitt!

First impression: Anything that says it’s ” Great Fun! No Mess” is full of it. but we’ll see. I did notice a remark on the side of the box that says ” Easy Clean up” then another that says ” Color can leave stains rinse immediately with warm water.” hmmmm.

So here we go I have a washcloth with warm water ready, a table cloth protecting my ikea table, and my son who isn’t even 2 even though the package says 3+. I’m watching him carefully especially his mouth which often finds it’s way to all sorts of art supplies!

What I liked:

  • The price, well under 10 dollars for a pack of 4.
  • The colors are vivid
  • Not very messy
  • Not made in China ( South Africa)

What I didn’t like:

  • They don’t roll on very consistently, so you get darker spots and little pools of paint.
  • Hard to use as anything other than free art/ abstract .
  • My son didn’t put it in his mouth, shocking!

What my son liked:

  • The colors

What my son didn’t :

  • You can see in this picture that he has the bottle at the wrong angle, I know that the age is 3+ but wanted to mention that this can be frustrating for young kids .
  • It took a long time for the picture to dry so I wouldn’t let him touch it until it was dry and he was not pleased. The stain warning on the box had me a little worried.

Over all I think these make a fun add on to your art supplies but are by no means a must have and I would probably reserve them for older kids.

    Are they similar to bingo dabbers? My mom used to buy those for art projects when I was a kid. They were dirt cheap and fun.

    Thanks for reviewing! I have seen these in the store and wondered about them. I think I’ll wait on them now too until my son is a little older. We did purchase the Do-A-Dot daubers at your suggestion and (just turned) 2 yr old LOVES them! Thanks for sharing all your ideas!

  • Allie:

    They are similar to the daubers in concept but the daubers you can draw pretty well with these are much more erratic.

    I am so happy your son likes the daubers!
