Aqua dots starter pack

Do your child enjoy crafts? With the Aqua Dots Starter Pack, your child can start to create some amazing crafts. The starter pack comes with a special 4 color chamber pen, 1 spray bottle and 3 templates featuring 6 designs. Your child can create fun patterns by placing the dots on the templates, then spraying water on the creation and wait for it to dry. The designs usually take some time to dry and to get the beads to truly adhere. The beauty of this craft is when the beads start to fall apart, you can just put them back together by spraying more water on them. It would not be a complete loss.

In my opinion, Aqua Dots do require some fine motor skills. If your child is younger than 5 years old and is still struggling to hold a pencil with the right grip, you may have to help him learn to hold the pen first. You really don't want the child to feel frustrated and start to avoid work.

For your old child who might have already developed good pencil grip, this can be an independent activity that he does on his own. As the craft requires good concentration and steady hands, it would probably help the child to develop better attention span.
