MagnaPlay Review & (Giveaway Closed)

Wednesday, June 24, 2009

My son absolutely loves to draw. So as you can imagine, we go through alot of paper at our house. Another problem I have with him wanting to write and draw all the time other than wasting paper is him wanting to do this while in the car. Now I don't know about your little one, but he has a hard time holding a pad and pen while riding. Not to mention that I really don't want to deal with pen marks on my seat.

We recently went out of town on a trip and we took the MagnaKase Magnetic Coloring Travel Set. This little case was fantastic and made travel much easier. He loves using his dry erase board, and I love that the markers wipe off so easily no matter what he seems to get it on. At first, I was worried that he would forget to close the dry erase markers and they would dry out, but even as young as two he understands that he has to put the top back on them and we have yet to have a problem with them drying out.

The MagnaKase Magnetic Travel Set is a sturdy 12" x 10.6" x 2.7" hinged case made from plastic. On one side, it has a magnetic dry erase surface so it can be used for drawing or your little ones favorite magnetic activity. Also on the side there is a second magnetic surface for just magnetic play. It's great to be able to store everything inside the case too. That way, I never have to worry about his things getting misplaced.

The MagnaPlay Magnetic Coloring Travel Set Includes:
· 1 MagnaKase - Magnetic Dry Erase Activity case with 2 magnetic surfaces.

· 4 double-sided Reusable Color and Erase Search-A-Word coloring puzzle (8" X 10" sheets). These coloring pages should be used only with dry erase markers.

· 2 magnet strips (8" X 1") that secures coloring pages to the activity surface, for coloring with crayons, color pencils or markers while on the go.

· Foohy Washable dry erase, low odor, thinline markers 6 count (Manufactured by Sanford Corporation).

· 1 eraser. The 2" x 1 3/8" x 11 1/16" eraser is made from recycled material (wood and felt) and is virtually indestructible.

From Their Site: MagnaPlay was founded by a Mom who understands the importance of safety and quality when manufacturing educational toys for children. Child safety is our utmost priority. We have all seen headlines of recent recalls of millions of toys by companies such as Mattel, Fisher-Price, RC2 Corporation (Thomas and Friends toys) and others because they either had tiny magnets that could get detached and be swallowed by children, or contained lead-paint hazards for children. MagnaPlay guarantees the safety of its products as they are assembled in the United States and are tested by an accredited third party testing lab.
