Dinosaur Activity Box and Magic Water Painting Set Unicorn and Fairy Review

Editor's Review
Get creative in so many ways with arts and crafts kits from My Creative Box. The Dinosaur Activity Kit and Magic Water Painting Set are just two examples of the fun kids can have, and each is sold separately.
The Dinosaur Activity Box, geared toward kids ages 4 to 7, includes the tools kids need to make three activities. There’s a Dinosaur Fossils kit where kids push plastic dinosaurs into air-dry clay. Kids can then make dinosaur puppets using the craft stickers, dinosaur shapes, paint, and other supplies. And finally, there’s a wooden 3-D dinosaur for kids to paint and decorate. Plus, the instruction guide includes a bonus volcano activity, dinosaur book suggestions, a dinosaur song, and ways for parents to prompt more educational learning.
The Magic Water Painting Set comes in a variety of themes, including the Unicorn and Fairy set in our video review. For this set, all you do is fill the water pen with water and “paint” on the pages of the fold-out book. As you paint the seven scenes, you’ll reveal hidden numbers, unicorns, fairies, and more. As the pages dry, the hidden images disappear so that you can paint them again. The pages are made of foam so shouldn’t warp after many uses.

Should I get it?
Both of these activities help preschoolers with fine motor skills, as well as encourage some creativity.Â
The Dinosaur Activity Box will be fun for fans of dinosaurs, introducing them to some hands-on science, as well as arts and crafts. And when parents participate in the play using the parent prompts, they can help kids with literacy/numeracy, language, cognitive skills, and social/emotional skills.Â
The Magic Water Painting Set is easy to set up and use for playtime at home and on the go. Kids will like revealing the hidden images with just a swipe of the water pen, and this can also help preschoolers practice counting and writing numbers.Â
