Spinning GIF Art Studio, Creates Over 30 Custom Animations, for Kids Aged 6 and Up

I got this as a gift for a friends daughter who lives to color and she loves it!! It’s like getting to make your pictures come alive and was a big hit. Was asked by other parents where I found it so I would say it was a hit with kids and parents/adults!

great activity for young minds, and educational

My grand son enjoyed it keep him busy

We got this for my two boys for Christmas because they both like spinning things, and because my oldest had seen it in a store and really liked spinning it in the package.The cons:Maybe we didn't try hard enough... but it took us two whole months to figure out how to work this thing. It's not actually complicated at all, but I feel like the instructions made it seem complicated and inaccessible.Pros:It turns out, it comes loaded with batteries and ready to go! Just flip the switch, put on a paper illustrated disk, and spin! (It works best in a darkened room.)The light only turns on when it's spinning - so I bet these batteries will last a while!The paper disks and provided pens are wipe-friendly, so you can color them again and again!The paper disks are also fairly indestructible - if your toddler crushes them, you can actually flatten them out pretty easily and return them to spinning condition. Sweet!Also, like I said, my kids spent over two months playing with this toy regularly, without knowing what it does. It's just knd of fun and satisfying, even as nothing more than a strange fidget spinner.The flashing light isn't that bad. I'm very sensitive to strobes, as they are a major migraine trigger for me. My kids aren't allowed to play with flashlights because of this, unless I'm shut off in another room. But I can handle the Gifeez light.What could be improved:I don't love how small the pen caps are. Definitely a choking hazard... But there's nothing stopping you from swapping them out with your own pens!Also, the blank discs should have guild lines on them. It's hard to free-hand the even spacing needed to make the flip-book effect work.Overall, a really neat update on the classic zoetrope toy! I had a zoetrope growing up, and I loved it, but I think I was 10 when I got mine... It was not super child-friendly. This Gifeez, however, is so simple and easy for even tiny kids to use!

It’s a fun toy but way too small to be a gift. I thought it was a crazy sale for it to be $4 from $20 but I wouldn’t pay more than $5 for it.

The media could not be loaded.  This is the best gift I bought my daughter for Christmas, and most gifts were a lot more expensive than this. She is 8, but It’s fun for all ages. At first I thought I was ripped off. If you spin it without turning on the (strobe?) light switch, all you see is a color blur. When you turn the switch on you see the animation. The lights even change so after watching 20 seconds or so the animation changes. Very, very cool toy. I’ll be buying more for gifts. I might even buy one for myself. Lol. I have an odd shadow in my video but you don’t see the shadows in person.

I was pleasantly surprised at how awesome these are! I got one one for each of my two children and they are so neat!! We don’t use the GIF making function, my kids are still young, but just watching them spin is mesmerizing!! Highly recommend for artistic children (and adults!)

This was the perfect thing to keep my kids occupied during a lengthy power outage! There are several disks included that range from cute characters (emojis, eggs & bacon, aliens) to geometric designs. Some are more intricate for older kids/adults, and there are also a few blanks to create our own artwork. It includes about 5 markers, but we used our own. Place the disk on, give it a quick spin and it will light up and change the effect - it's really cool and easy to use.
