5 gifts to excite and engage your little artists this holiday season

Does your little explorer love learning about new terrains and the animals that live there? Drive them toward new adventures and track through winter landscapes in style with this toy and activity set!

Your child can have fun coloring three artic pets, a walrus, penguin and polar bear. They’ll be amazed as they watch the three new pets magically change color from white to blue in cold temperatures. Just put the pets in the freezer or outdoors on a cold winter day and watch them transform. Take them indoors or give them a warm bath to change them back.

When finished, wash them clean and enjoy coloring and changing how each pet looks over and over again. Best of all, the real-working explorer vehicle can take these colorful pets on an arctic expedition and double as storage.

2. Scribble Scrubbie Pets Line

The fun continues for all pet lovers by gifting them one or multiple Scribble Scrubbie Pet sets. Each set includes at least two pets, ultra-clean washable markers, a scrub brush, and additional accessories. Scribble Scrubbie Pets are also available in 1 or 2 count collectible packs.

Scribble Scrubbie Pets keep kids busy during the holidays and beyond, and they will be amazed as they color, clean, and color their pets again and again!

3. Ultimate Light Board

Display your little artist’s masterpieces in lights with this light board. Kids can draw art directly on the light board’s surface, turn it on and watch their designs shine.

Using the Gel FX Markers, kids can see their drawings come to life as the bright LED lights built into the frame make the inks glow. When done, simply wipe the screen clean with a damp cloth and watch as your child unleashes unlimited creativity. Also, built in storage makes supplies portable.

4. Clay Sculpting Station
