    Comments about Educational Insights Magnetic Art:

    Purchased at Christmas time for our 3 year old. I did know at the time of purchase that it didn't come with a carry case for all the little magnets but man after purchasing there are way too many magnets and some are pretty small. I certainly wouldn't want this toy in my car...my kids would be throwing the pieces at me and I would never find them all.

          Got this toy for Christmas for my son. I was disappointed in the quality (for the price), it's all plastic and there is not even a case to put all the magnets.
          Wish it were in wood, made like a little briefcase, with wood magnets.
          Wish the colors were more vibrant too...

          This is a terrific travel companion for our son! We store it in an old laptop bag with shoulder strap, and it stays in the car until we need it. The shapes keep him occupied for a long time, and is a great distraction while waiting for food to arrive at a restaurant. Highly recommended!

              I bought this for an eight hour car drive to Minnesota
              and it kept my three year old entertained for several
              hours. Besides our DVD player, this will definetly be
              another must on my list to pack.

              Comments about Educational Insights Magnetic Art:

              This is a great activity toy for the car. As other reviews have said, it does need some type of storage either attached or separate. Knowing this prior to purchasing, I found a zippered clear tote lying around the house. It was perfect for it.
              Other than that, it really keeps my 4 year old son busy while in the car.
              There are son many designs he comes up with.
              Great product!!

                My 2.5-yr-old doesn't seem too entrigued by this toy, but I still think it's great! It's of pretty good quality, and it comes with LOTS of pieces. I just wish there was a bag/container for all the little magnetic pieces that attaches to the board. (I use a ziploc bag.)

                I really appreciate the creativity that this product has to offer. My three year old daughter enjoys playing with all the shapes and making pictures.

                I bought this because of all the traveling we are going to do. The only draw back is that there is no carrying case which makes it difficult for her to play with in the car. I enjoy the magnets but it will stay at home

                We bought this for our three year old for a 8 hour trip. She found it so much fun that even during our short weekly trips to grandma's it is in constant use. She loves the shapes and the colors and is always using it to review her knowledge of both. We have even found that it works well in restaurants. We bring the tray and the a few peices magnatized to the tray and it keeps her quite busy.

                The only con is the lack of a storage compartment for pieces when she wants to clear the tray for use.
