The Original Spirograph Scratch and Shimmer Set, Arts and Crafts, Craft Kit, Kids Aged 8 Years and Up, Gift for Boy or Girl

This is just such a nice item very pleased

she is absolutely happy with this

This is a nice addition to Spirograph. It comes with only 1 drawing ring and 6 wheels, so is limited in the designs you can do compared to other Spirographs. The ring is described as non slip and it is on the paper provided. Not used on other papers so can't comment on this. Its exactly the same to use as traditional Spirograph, although you do need to use a lot of pressure on the wheel, so for younger users, it may prove tricky. As an avid Spirograph user and already have the traditional set with a full set of rings, wheels, rods and specialist wheels this was a bit of a disappointment. The paper provides the opportunity to produce some stunning Spirograph designs. However if you already have a Spirograph set, you'd be better buying a pack of scratch paper instead. If new to Spirograph I wouldnt buy this as a starter set. However the contents are of good quality which you would expect of this brand. Instructions are clear and easy to follow.

It’s ideal Christmas present

I must say I was disappointed with this one as it didn’t work as well as it should have. My son is 11 and he’s very artistic but he couldn’t get the results to come out well, whilst using the plastic Spirograph templates to create pretty patterns and art. I’m putting this down to the card which is included in the set. I feel it needs to be changed in order for the product to work properly.

Bought for my grandson at Christmas last year, he still plays with it now.

Bought this for my grandson. Just like I remembered it - hours of entertainment!

Bought this for our 8 year old daughter for Christmas. It has taken her a bit of practice to make the patterns but she loves it. There is rubber under the ring to keep it from sliding on the paper, no putty like the other sets. The scratch of paper is pretty and can be restocked from craft stores. The kit can also be used on white paper with a regular biro style pen or felt tip.
