I was lucky enough to get 2 of these on Saturday. Both dds (4ys and 15months) love it. So thanks to the original poster for pointing this out. To be honest, didn't think the reservation would work as Argos was out of stock when I checked, but then they emailed me to tell me they were finally in stock and that the reservation would be held till this Saturday! Amazing. I opended one to get dds to test it (gave into the endless nagging from both more like ) but the other is now going into the gift cupboard.

BTW I reseved a scooter before xmas reduced to £9.99. Sent Hubby off to get it. 1 1/2 hours later he returned home fuming. They couldn't find the one I had resreeved but did not tell him for ages! The manager eventually gave him another scooter from the catalogue as compensation. Were we happy.... for about a couple of days until I finally checked what was inside the box.... the handle bars were missing. So back to Argos for hubby :mad: .... he was not very happy to have wasted so much time. So sometimes Argos are great sometimes their reduced stock is a bit of a nightmare!

Would jou say this is suitable for a 4, 5 year old??? I got one for my neice to take to South Africa but wondering if they will laugh at me??

My daughter is 5 and plays with her 2 year old sisters one.

She is really into drawing and writing though so gets a lot out of it and saves on paper for us!

So I think it really depends on the child.

My daughter is 6 and her and I play noughts and crosses on it as well as 'boxes' (where you draw lines to join the dots and make squares).

Much more fun then pen and paper and by the time we've worked our way around the mat, the first bit is dry. Also good for hanging on wall for kids birthday party games like draw the nose on the clown etc.

:eek: absolutely typical of grandparents eh? we have one of these for our 2yr old and when my mum came over for Christmas she thought it was paint :cool: when I explained that it was only water she went on about it all day saying 'technology nowadays' and all that! :rotfl:
