    Crayola pen needs improvement

    Slightly disappointed that this is not as child friendly as I hoped. You really need to press hard to draw, which can often be discouraging for young children. Also it is too easy to press off while you're just holding it, which is also a source of frustration for young children. The concept is awesome and that they do love.

    Our daughter has been wanting to color on her tablet and my wife found this product to use on our iPad. The stylus was not quite up to expectations. With a bit of work, I can get the stylus to work fine, but it struggles at time and the power button does not work at all. The stylus will not turn off, so I imagine the battery will run out shortly and I'm not sure we will replace it.

    It was a gift for my niece. So I don't know if she has got around to using it yet.

    Barely works - Terrible for kids

    This is such a good concept but fails on most marks. The app is cool and has some good pictures, but the pen itself barely works. You have to push so hard that I'm afraid the tablet screen will crack, and even then it's not guaranteed that the pen will actually leave a mark. What's worse is that on the app there isn't an option to just use your fingers instead of the pen, you have to use the pen, but the pen doesn't work. It's terrible and a real let down.

    Seemed like it was going to be fun. But after 5 minutes we found ourselves just using our fingers instead of pen. The pen did work as well as we thought it would.

    You have to press extremely hard to get it to work and even then it will break up lines in-between trying to draw or color. Too frustrating to try to use. Gave up after multiple attempts.

    Odd stylus

    This is definitely an odd stylus. It still confuses me how it works with the app for it but not the rest of the iPad. I don't know why it needs a battery to work at all. It's a great toy for the kids. My brother loves it.

    I actually got this for my daughter and ended up being impressed with how simple it is and how well it actually works. Definitely worth the time for my little artist!

    The interaction between the pen and the Ipad is horrible, you cannot do what you are trying to do accurately.

    Bought for iPad and it will not work. I even took the case off thinking that was the issue. The pen doesn't want to power on. Tried different batteries and it did the same thing. Once you get it on it does not communicate with the screen. I don't recommend

    Great stylus for kids. There are a lot of addon coloring books that will work with this you can find them on App Store. A little hard to get used to it.. Younger kids may not have the patience to figure out the right "touch"

    I wish I had read the reviews before I bought this for my grandchildren. You have to press REALLY had to get the stylus to work. The only saving grace is that they can use a finger.
