The pad is lightweight but tough enough to withstand constantly being dropped. Stylus is attached by string with a neat space on the reverse for it to be tidied away,Bought for a 3y/o who had previously showed NO interest in writing, bought i will admit to simply make up the cash id spent on both kids, and its one they fight over,3y/o has gone from scribbles to writing first 4 letters of her long name, she can recognise her letters and can differenciate between upper and lower case (puh = p / Pee =P) this is within one calendar month of "playing" with it. She has older friends in reception class and they love it too - she will play teacher and pick a letter -they then copy the lights movements using pen and paper (she does it on little screen)

I got this for our now three year old birthday. It's pretty safe to say that it was her favourite present and she loves playing with it every day. It's a nice size for toddler hands and the pen is attached to the board with sturdy string so the pen can't get lost but still lots of room for the child to be able to operate the pen on the pad. My daughter does have the habit of using this upside down so the writing pad is at the top. I think it's easier for her to write with the pad at the top but it does frustrate me as I don't want her learning letters upside down! We bought this for her as she had been showing an interest in letters and thought this would promote the next step of actually writing letters.

This is a great educational toy. However, there are some flaws in the design which I think could be improved.Firstly, 'slider' type screen is a bit flimsy, I can't see it being durable in a household with children who are quite rough on their toys. Also, the screen itself does not perfom brilliantly, the pen does not make enough of a mark on the screen when used and sometimes hardly shows up especially when the lights are on underneath the pen marks to show you where to write. The cord on the pen could do with being a bit longer too as its quite difficult to get the pen into the correct position to write.The toy has a couple of functions, capital letters, lowercase letters, a 'play'

I bought this in the hope of keeping my 26 month old amused on long car journeys and it certainly did the job. In the two weeks that we've had it it has become a firm favourite - although she doesn't yet understand the concept of tracing over the light and keeps shouting at it to stop moving! She enjoys drawing on the scribble pad and the lights and sounds it makes.It does however teach some of the letter sounds differently to the way I would, and the letter construction doesn't seem to be quite correct in some instances. There also seems to be too much focus on the letter names rather than the letter sounds.

My 3 year old has recently taking an interest in letters/words, the sound they make and how to write them. So I purchased this little helper to help him form the letters and understand the sounds. It does the job well, the pad is like those toys with the pull along bar to rub out what has been drawn - which was not what I expected. Its sometimes doesn't draw the line, but he doesn't seem to bothered, he just goes over it again. Its a great toy because he can practice without me hovering over him, showing him how to do it and eventually frustrating him - I.E. It allows him to explore and learn independently. The activies and voice instructions/praise are easy to understand and are clear.

Had this for a year now. Well my 4yr old can write her alphabet on paper without any mistakes thanks to this toy. The batteries in them are still lasting. You can also learn to draw shapes and its great that it teaches how to write uppercase and lowercase letters. Highly recommended. It doesn't get full stars because the pen should of been made like a regular pen, not a big chunky one. I read in some reviews that letter formation is not accurate with some of the letters, my opinion to this is that it doesn't matter how you write your letters, just as long as you can write them and read them. This toy might be a bit confusing for children who have already started school and learning to write the alphabet from they teacher,

This is fantastic. My daughter received it for her third birthday. She loves those wipe clean books where you can practice numbers and letters and shapes and things, but is always leaving the lids off the pens!This has two levels, so when she's older we can move to the harder challenges. It has games and challenges and congratulates them when they've done well. It's a great size for her to just sit and play with it on her lap, and the pen is perfect size for tiny hands. It also fits into a holder on the back, so it's not just hanging loose when not in use.The screen is little, but it's fine for what it's used for, they're writing single numbers and letters, not a four page essay.

I bought this for my son and daughter who have just turned 5 and 6 years old, my son had been learning to write for a year, and struggled to get the hang of it, and my daughter was just learning at school, so I thought it would be a great learning tool. When it arrived I realised I should of bought two, they loved it and spent ages on it, I figured the novelty would wear off, but it still hasn't. The only thing I was a bit disappointed with was the writing pad, I thought it was like a leapster where it recognises what is written, but it doesn't, they could do anything, not follow the dots, and it doesn't notice, I found it best to sit with them and help them do it the first few times till they got the hang of it.

My 4 year old son had this bought for him on his birthday. He loved it straight away. Its easy to use, and has really helped him write his letters. Also very easy to take in the car & to friends houses. It has afew settings - tracing capital & small letters, & shapes/pictures. It also has guess the letter, as the toy starts to draw it. My 3 year old daughter also uses it, and to my amazement has picked it up really quickly, as is doing really well on it. Its so good, I've recommended it to friends, and bought it for 2 presents (for a 3 year old girl, and an 8 year old who has special needs). The only slight problem with it is the slider that wipes it clean - occasionally you have to wiggle the slider to get it across - but it seems to right itself quickly.

This is excellent. I bought the number one too. My only niggle is that the screen is easily scratched - even using the writing tool it comes with. The very soft writing screen does not allow for a child writing heavily on it. The screen already has a million dents and scratches in it. DON'T LET THIS PUT YOU OFF THOUGH. When the toy is in use, and the screen is lighting up the letter to be traced, you can't notice/see the scratches and dents of previous attempts. It is fantastic and is teaching my just turned 4yr old how to write, and the difference between numbers and letters. It teaches big letters and small letters, it pronounces them in phonics too. Overall, I'm very happy with it. Oh,

I bought this toy for my 6 year old boy & girl. Since I've received it a week ago it's been played with all day long. It seems really durable although we've only had it for a week. The formation of the letters is really helpfull, specially for my son 6 y.o., who is left handed and has some problems with his writing. My 2 y.o. daughter really enjoys it too, and she's trying to follow the light in forming the letters & shapes. It's been a brilliant toy overall with a very clever design. I would recommend it to anyone who wants sth enjoyable that will also help the little ones learn the letters.P.S. We learn english as a second language & I really like the fact that the letter z is called - zed - instead of -zi as in many other talking toys.

I bought this for my 4 year-old daughter's birthday. My friend's son had been given one for his birthday and she was very interested and sat with it for quite some time when she was given a shot.Now she has her own she plays with it often and can easily access all the functions herself. The Scribble&Write is particulary good at the moment because my daughter's keen to write for herself. The sound effects and little tunes that accompany the activities are not wearing on the ears and it's very easy to make out what's being said and understand the instructions. There's also a handy little space on the back to hold the pen when it's not in use.I would recommend this to anyone...even my second

My son has played with this toy every day since he got it. He's nearly 4 and it's just right for him as he's learning his shapes and letters at school. He figured out how to play the different modes all by himself. It's helping him learn how to hold a pen for better control, to get to know his letters and shapes better and hand-eye coordination to follow the red lights that light up to show him where the follow with the pen. The music is catchy and the toy is solid and chunky so I think it could withstand the knocks and drops it will get with my son! It's so good that we bought the same thing for his friend who's just a little younger. An educational toy that's good fun too.

This toy has surpassed all my expectations! It has two stages, to accommodate your child's skill level. The first level simply shows the child how to write the letter or number and tells them the sound it makes but the second level gives more direction when printing by only showing the next step once the child has placed the stylus on the flashing dot, if the child strays from the lights showing the strokes for the letter it asks them to start again. I bought it for my daughter who is 4 and she uses the second level and I will be buying it for my 3 year old niece for her birthday. My daughter enjoys playing with it and is so proud to show off what she has learned.
