ZMLM Rainbow Scratch Paper Art Bookmarks for Kids Party Favors 36 Pack

The kids love virtually everything with this "scratch paint" on it and these bookmarks were no exception. I couldn't wait for them, though, and it wasn't long before I was doing some "testing" on my own. You know, for science. Here's what you need to know. I did these several designs in about 15 minutes using one of the provided styluses. The stylus was long enough for an adult to easily use. The styluses are also fairly sharp, so, while this product is listed for ages 3+, you'll definitely want adult supervision for young kids. This set includes 36 bookmarks, 36 ribbons, and 36 protective covers, however, there are only 10 styluses. Some other buyers complained about this so be sure to take it into consideration when purchasing. But really, what kid is only going to want to do one bookmark?! They're going to want to do several. To me, 10 styluses seem more than enough. These are listed as "rainbow" but that's not accurate – the patterns underneath have more of a "lava lamp" look than a rainbow look. See photos. That said, the underlying pattern still creates a nice effect when you get to scratching. These aren't overly messy but that's not to say that there's no mess at all. The scratch paint is much like that found on a lottery ticket ... but a little bit chalkier and not quite as thick. So, when everyone's done, there's quite a few bits of black gunk left behind. It's not sticky and can be removed with a dry cloth or a handheld vacuum with ease. I did notice a couple tiny issues. The ribbons appear to have been cut with a heated knife or similar – many of the ends were stuck together. The did come apart with some tugging. This set provides protective covers so that you can protect your bookmark designs from getting scratches. And this is a nice touch. However, there's no hole for the ribbons which is mildly inconvenient. To solve this, you can use a hole-punch or small scissors to create a discrete hole for the ribbon. Overall, this bookmark set is a good value. People of all ages like scratching designs on to these and I'm happy with the purchase.

Grandkids are going to love this product.

I purchased these for an activity at my daughter’s birthday party. These bookmarks captured the attention of both boys and girls, ages 4-13. A definite hit!

Very cute

Ordered these for my classroom and my students loved them in their end of year goodie bags!

Love them fun

The best !

These are so inexpensive but they are a gift that virtually any kid would like. They are basically bookmark scratchers - the background heavy paper is laminated with rainbow colors and the black overlayed surface is easily scratched off with the provided pointed sticks. You can write sayings or make a picture or scratch a name and the finished product looks amazing! I believe there were 20 or 30 in the package and my granddaughter immediately sat down and made 15 of these bookmarks in about 10 minutes. They also come with ribbons that you can attach and individual plastic holders if you want to give the finished product to someone as a gift. The only downside is that the black coating that you scratch off kind of gets all over so be aware. Great product!
