Jungle Magic Painting Book: 1 (Magic Painting Books) : Sam Taplin, Usborne: desertcart.co.uk: Books Review: Excellent - brilliant for practising painting within the lines - mess free. - I bought two identical copies, one for myself and one for my son's girlfriend. I am really happy with this and can't believe how simple it is to use. It comes with a paintbrush and all you need is a container with water to wet the brush. I also must mention that it is really easy to do and in my opinion it is a handy book to help teach children (or adults) to paint within the lines. It seems so strange to wet your brush and then paint with water over an area and by doing this, you pick up the paint from the black inked areas on the picture. Children would see this as being magical. I tried staying within the lines and for the most part I did okay, the trick is not to put too much water on your brush but also put enough for it to work. I also found that once the area I coloured in had dried, you can go back with a wet brush and it lifts the colour again and makes it more vibrant. When the area you coloured in is still wet and you try going over it again it doesn't pick up any more colour so best to let it dry and then try again. I think this is an unbelievable handy book to have for teaching water colour painting to anyone really. It is fun and I can imagine this could be the next big trend and very similar to the current colouring book trend but with a twist. The glass of water that I used for dipping my brush in never discoloured which was also quite weird. I thought it would be all murky and discoloured but the water was clear after I had finished dipping my brush and painting the entire picture. The pages are perforated which makes it easy for removing the pages without tearing them. I will now buy a couple more of these books in different designs. Review: Great way to spend some time - My toddler really enjoys this and it's a great way for him to have some quieter time.

Useful therapy for elderly
I bought this in 2017 for child, who hates art. It’s sat in a drawer untouched until 2025. Now my elderly mother is using it - she is too depressed to do anything most of the time, she does sudoku and complains she can’t do it correctly, she reads and complains she can’t focus (she opens the book in the middle to begin reading and jumps to the end before the end of the day). She seems to get more satisfaction from this. I am ordering more. Very simple for me, as her carer, as it only requires providing a jar of water and doesn’t make mess, but allows her to get into that relaxing, therapeutic “flow” state.

Good value
Attractive books which will keep a little person engaged and is easy for a busy mum and dad to set out and make available for young children to use. Like the back of the book which folds out and under the page being worked on to prevent the next pages from being spoilt by too much water.

Die sehr schönen Bildern sind prima für unterwegs, man braucht nur Wasser und den dazugehörigen Pinsel. Die Bilder werden bunt! Man kann auch mit Aquarell drüber und sich überraschen lassen. Toll für kleine und ja, auch grosse Kinder-habe zwei gekauft. Ein tolles Geschenk für Malmuffel, wegen dem Überraschungseffekt.

This is a great product - my daughter loved it however she finished the entire book in 30-40 minutes. It's not very big so I would recommend buying a few out of this range if you want to keep them occupied longer.

旅行で飛行機や新幹線・特急での移動の際に子供が手持ち無沙汰にならないように購入。 100円均一の筆とキャップ付ケースを用意すると便利です。 クレヨンや色鉛筆での塗り絵と違い、筆一本と水があれば良いので荷物がかさばらず、また紙からはみ出て塗っても座席やテーブルが汚れないのでオススメです。 水はトイレの手洗い場所や飲用水から使えるので、最悪は筆がなくても指で塗らせて『魔法みたい!すごーい!』と褒めると子供も喜びますよ★
