John Adams | BLOPENS® Animals Activity Set: Blow airbrush effects | Arts & crafts | Ages 4+

This was a a small present for my Grand daughter. She seemed quite pleased with it and the results, even from a 4 year old were surprisingly good !

My kids really enjoyed these, wouldn't use them everyday but great fun still the same.A few points to note:Very good quality feel, feels robust, and no really small bits to come away or be chewed.Colours are bright.They are not washable, and may stain light clothing.The box is more than twice as big than it needed to be, my kids 6&8 were a little disappointed when opening it.I like that the pens are so easy to use and the lid/case of each pen can be easily cleaned after use. Fine for siblings to share but not good for friends. The pens are very wet when you've finished with them.I couldn't find any refills available so when the product does run out there would be a lot of unnecessary plastic waste if you replace like for like.Unfortunately only instructions were on the outside of the box, but simple enough to assemble, a tip if you struggle to get them working, is to remove the pen and reinsert till it clicks (like you would put a normal felt tip lid on).Stencils are flimsy card but effective, I wouldn't recommend small or easily frustrated children attempt to pop out the pieces as they would rip.Overall we are all very happy with this purchase and have already added another set to the wish list.As for delivery, I ordered very late Tuesday night, passed my bedtime and they arrived before the end of school the every next day.

Great item, brought for xmas. Daughter loves it. Easy for her to use on her own. Delivery was spot on too

Great fun

Unfortunately got this for an Easter gift for my daughter and it came just with a sticker, not in a box. My kids handed it to me. Was not happy so it wasn’t a surprise!! Apart from that ok

Great pens. Grandchildren loves them

My nephew was excited to give them a try but it took us a little while to work out that we were attaching the pen at the wrong end. The instructions on the box were not clear enough. Also, it requires a fair amount of puff for small humans, which ends up incorporating saliva and the whole process becomes a bit wet and gross - ruining the picture. Also the stencils come punched but you still need to remove the paper between the gaps. When you do something like a butterfly the pieces are tiny and the stencil is weak meaning it is really easy to rip it. Removing all the pieces from just one stencil can up to 6 minutes. It's a tough review - it's a decent product for adults, but for children I really think it needs to come with clear instructions and stencils that are stronger and ready to use.
