Watercolor Dreams

My Mom, 93 years old, lives in a nursing home. She talked about art class and watercolor painting and how much she enjoyed it. She was sad because the art teacher was going on maternity leave for a year and she didn't think they'd have painting class again. I searched Amazon and found this set and another one like it and sent them to her. She absolutely loves these books, I can hear it in her voice how happy she is now that she can paint whenever she wants to. And she's actually proud of her results. She's had the books for a few weeks now and every time we talk she tells me how thankful she is. I'm thankful she found something she likes to do to keep her busy and to pass the time away. 93 years old--never too old to try something new!

Perfect gift. Love this edition best. Very artistic, fun pages inside great for boys and girls (a bit skewed toward girls, one page is just coloring a girl). Overall, sturdy pages and fun gift.

Order received finally after 1 week delay. Cant wait to try.

Good gift for all ages wanting to get into painting

My granddaughter whom is 7 loved this. Even my 17 year old daughter thought is was fantastic. I totally approve of this also. Painting skills don't have to be professional and the mess was minimum. I was able to set up and instruct my granddaughter and she was able to maintain the rest of by herself. She is really independent anyway buy I didn't have to hover worry about a mess or having to monitor how much paint to was pouring out. Pictures in this book are so adorable and they are perforated for easy tear out. The only thing that would of been nice is a way to put them back in the little book for safe keeping.
