Spirograph - Animator - The Classic Craft and Activity to Make and Bring Countless Amazing Designs to Life - For Ages 8+

We have several other spirographs but really like the unique features on this one. Sturdy well built. The stick down paper and snap in ring makes it where even the youngest grandchild can do it on his own. Standard size paper, is great, some require you to cut paper to fit their odd size/shape. I'd recommend for gifts.

The Spirograph Animator is like giving your kid the keys to the universe of creativity—but without the risk of glitter explosions or marker-covered walls. It’s mesmerizing, fun, and makes you feel like you’ve secretly gifted them a science experiment disguised as a toy.Watching the spirographs come to life on the animator is pure magic. My kid proudly announced they’ve “discovered a new species of rainbow.” Honestly, I kind of believe them. These designs are so cool that even I started making my own—and no, I’m not sharing.It’s the kind of toy that has everyone in the family gathering around like moths to a light, gasping, “Whoa, do that one again!” It’s hypnotizing in the best way. We’ve been so entertained, we actually forgot to check our phones.If you’re looking for a gift that sparks creativity, amazes everyone, and turns your coffee table into an art gallery, this is it. Just be prepared to have every surface covered in colorful masterpieces

I actually have not used this yet. Waiting to do a project with my grandchildren.

Out of all the fancy gifts my son got for Christmas, I did not expect this one to be his favorite.Awesome that it comes with a huge pad of paper and markers. It might be hard to replace these markers when they run out.

My daughters both had this toy as kids. We still had one that the neighbor who is 6 really enjoyed when they babysat her so we bought her one for Christmas! Exactly what we were looking for at the right price and quick delivery!

This varied version of the Spirograph is pretty cool. Lights up as it spins so you can see varied versions of the art. Kids loved it!

I was expecting good animation while rottating the Spirograph. However, it was dificult for kids to understand how it works and then it did not gave good animation and kids were not much happy about the animation.Definetly it makes very good single designs. However, paper size being very small, they are not much of useful for kids to have collective more designs.

It took just a few minutes to understand the usage (which I spend time on before we gifted it) but then after our granddaughter opened it I was able to walk her through the steps and she couldn't get enough of it! She's 6 years old. Spirograph pens sometimes run out of ink quickly, so we also bought these additional ballpoints pens which work well with it! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01EB6E3EC (Not all pens fit well through the small holes, but these were good!)
