No Mess, Re-usable, Simple and Fun!
The media could not be loaded. No Mess, Re-usable, Simple and Fun!My 3 and 6 year old love these pictures, they are just beautifully simple to do.Just grab a brush, a pot of water and paint away!My only bug bear is that you only get 5 in the set for £19.99 and it doesn’t take long to finish them.They are certainly not cheap, but they are really good quality and re-usable!The re-usability is fantastic, we’ve used them about 6 times over already and they are as good now as the first time we opened them!The velcro case they come in is really neat for storing them too.

Very nice - like an aqua doodle with pictures
This pack has five different sheets each with a hidden picture that reveals itself when you paint with waterIf you have used a toddler aqua doodle or aqua draw it is basically the exact same technology but with designs that are more mature and less babyishThat said, it is fun for all ages. This brand is designed for adults with dementia, which I can definitely see how this is suitable and would be a great ideaMy kids also enjoyed it, and I found it relaxing tooThe way it works is that the water reveals the picture in vibrant colours that looks like a water colour painting. Once the water dries it faded and you can re use the sheets to do the activity againAll you need is a paint brush and a pot of water, and the results come out perfectly how ever your paint technique is.I can definitely see that for adults with dementia who had used to enjoy painting, it will be a fabulous product.If you compare to the one use magic painting books with water, the results of the colours oh these are a lot more vibrant

Bring paintings to life with a touch of water
The media could not be loaded. What a lovely idea, simple but detailed designs brought to life with a touch of water. It's great that they can be re-used again and again and nowhere on them indicates that they are for people suffering with Alzheimer's or dementia. I will be taking them to the local nursing home as they are always trying to find ways to keep them occupied that don't take up much storage and these are a good idea.On the downside, I would have preferred them on a thick, sturdy wipe clean card and I'm not sure how long they will last with the elderly manhandling them. They are made of quite a thin material. The set does not include a paintbrush.They are suitable for all ages who will be delighted watching the paintings come to life.

Beautiful arts activity
At the beginning I wasn’t sure if it was worth the price but after trying it out with my son, I believe it is! The pages are a bit smaller than I expected but good size for kids I suppose. The colours of the paintings are beautiful and I really like the images as well. I love that they have a theme but can also be used for different set ups at the table.It needs a bit of water to colour, but it can be done easily by tiny hands if they have a thick brush. The envelope that came with looks good as well, which is nice as you can gift this to someone.What I find it a bit weird is that it says that it is suitable for ages 16-99.. I mean, It’s pretty therapeutical to paint it but surely it is directed more for younger ages, right?Anyway, that didn’t bother me and it is still a beautiful product so I am very happy with my purchase!

Great project for people with dexterity problems
This is a great little project for someone with dexterity problems young and old, although the pictures are aimed at the more mature a person.They are totally reusable with just a brush and water needed.The pictures are of a relaxing costal nature and are very vibrant in colour when they are completed. They don't take that long to complete but for a person with dexterity problems they will be a little more of a challenge and an enjoyment to do. These would be great for old and young with pictures aimed at and in keeping with their age groups.When completed you then allow them to dry out. This will enable them to be completed time after time. This is a really enjoyable project to complete and gives excellent results. It's definitely a well thought out concept.

Fantastic idea
This set of five plastic feeling sheets work like a magic painting book we had as children.They come ina neat folder and inside is a booklet with some ideas of how to cope with anyone with dementia - activities that might help them enjoy their day more.I chose these for my 18-month-old grandson who loves drawing (making marks) - he does this on paper, using chalk outside on the driveway and using mark makers.I thought these would give him another way to enjoy being creative that is nice and clean for inside!The pictures fade after about 20 minutes so that the artist can enjoy them for a time. Little ones find the doing is more important than the finished result anyway!I think these are fabulous and would recommend them for toddlers and those suffering from dementia.

Very well thought out activity stuff
I loved the whole concept and motive behind the toys here. It is suited for all kind of people, more so the aged ones who struggle to spend time otherwise. Highly recommended when you visit your grand parents.

Be aware of the degree of short term memory loss
My mother was very artistic in her youth and it’s wonderful to see her using a paint brush with so much focus and the smile of accomplishment. It just depends on how advanced the dementia is because there is a bit of a feeling of trickery when you can’t frame it because once it drys the images dissolve. So while it is practical in the sense of them being reusable - be aware of the level of dementia as it may not be suitable just yet.

My elderly mother loves these!
My elderly mother has dementia & this is her all-time favorite activity. Relish has come out with these new designs & they are so pretty :)Keep in mind, the nature of the product means it wears out after some time (after many, many coats of water). But at this price point buying new ones every few months if needed is definitely worth it.
