If you want something small to take on holiday with you to entertain girls who like drawing then Holiday Doodle Cards could be the answer. The pack is about 2 times the size of a standard pack of cards. It comes with a black felt pen and 50 wipeable cards. Standard felts don’t work very well on them so either keep track of the pen or buy a whiteboard maker as a replacement. Each card has a coloured picture in a travel theme with missing things you can draw on them in black – e.g. facial features on a pilot, clothes on girl, fish in the sea, completing a maze. Some involve creating your own ideas and others encourage copying a similar image. The cards vary in difficult so would appeal to ages 3-8 year I would think.
Not all the cards appealed to Zoe when she was given these but with 50 cards to choose from that really didn’t matter – she spent hours working on them and they are still in good enough to use again next time. There are also enough cards to be able to share with friends or siblings – but make sure you have extra pens on hand. The pictures aren’t specifically for girls so these cards would appeal equally well to boys who love to draw too.
