With all the technology we have, sometimes I fear that the kids are losing their creativity. However, that is not the case with the Magna Color 3D. With the Magna Color, kids are able to be creative and make their own creations. After they have created their creations, if you have a Smart Phone or Tablet, you can then create an Augmented Reality Aquarium.

About Magna Color:

The Magna Color 3D’s newest draw, scan, and play format is priced at $24.99 and is great for kids 4 and up. The Magna Color App for iPad is free and very user-friendly.

Your child can use the Magna Color pens to draw along the Magic App stencils. Parents then can download the free Magna Color App into their iPad. You can then launch the colorful marine designs and watch as the fish jump off the screen.

Kids Art Supplies- Take Along or Stay at Home

Creative play is an important part of childhood- but did you know that art and creativity do more then clutter your refrigerator and walls? Children who are involved in the arts are often more self- confidant, self reliant, and strongly desire success. Art helps develop fine motor skills, following directions, working well in social groups and group settings, and of course will help young children recognize shapes, colors, textures, and more. Get your child excited about art, and it will likely follow though to other school activities as well- children who participate in art and artistic endeavors are *four times more likely to be recognized for academic achievement, four times more likely to participate in math or science fairs, to win awards for writing, three times more likely to be elected to class office and to win awards for school attendance. Here are some great sets to help your child find his or her inner artist.
