This is a classic toy, however since it is made in China and no longer Ohio (hence Ohio Art), the quality went down the tubes. I had an original one years ago, and although the white knob broke off after many years of play the steel axle still allowed it to be workable. But this version has some cheap aluminum axle, which bent and completely broke off after about 3 weeks. So now all we can do is draw a vertical line.
This has got to be one of the best child's sculpting clay-like substances available. Our 8-year old played with this stuff at his art camp last summer and it was an instant success. Throughout the week, it was his absolutely most favorite thing to work with. We got him this bucket so that he could keep working with this at home and his creativity really showed through -- not only with the four basic colors but mixing them to make all the colors of the rainbow. He has now now worked through 3-4 buckets of this and his projects are consistently getting better, more interesting, and more complex as he learns to think ahead through the sculpting process.
The stuff is clean, does not smell, cleans up easily, and works well with fingers ... Read More:
We purchased the Sticky Mosaics Fantastic Fish for our 6 year old daughter last Christmas. She worked on 3 pictures over the first two days, then the remainder within the next month. She loved seeing the pictures come alive and sparkle. You can easily fix mistakes by peeling off a tile and repositioning it.
The only complaint about durability is that the plastic hangers that come with the kit do not hold well to the back of the pictures. All of the pictures fell down off the wall within a day.
The loops are of very poor quality. They fray easily, and this is especially frustrating when trying to finish the edges. If I can find a company which supplies better loops, then I can do this craft with my grandchildren. If I can't, then this loom kit was a waste of money.

Let me preface this review by saying that I've been using a similar product by this company that I was completely happy with. Be that as it may...
First of all, the item sent is NOT the item that is pictured and that I thought I'd be receiving. It's similar, but not exact. Strike one.
Next, the marker that was included lasted about a week and a half. Strike two.
Then, the white surface seems to absorb the dry-erase ink, requiring that each and every time I wish to erase, it MUST be done with some sort of liquid solvent to remove the 'ghosting' that takes place. Strike three!
Think twice before buying this one, folks.

The dolls are awesome. My graddaughter loves them but the pocket on the front of the plastic carrying case was busted when it arrived and the feathers on the top of the carrying case are unnecessary. They just come off everywhere. The dolls and the clothes are great but the case needs some work.
Not much more I can say ... these are simply great cups ... much larger than I expected. You pour the paints in once and then they're ready to access whenever you want. My daughter and I recommend!
