Manufacturers Reccomended Age: 3+ No batteries required. If the children in your life love Thomas the Tank Engine, then they will love the Thomas the Tank Engine Megasketcher. A modern take on the classic "Etch-a-Sketch", this large, portable megasketcher, moulded to look like Thomas the Tank Engine himself, is designed to give the imagination of budding artists free reign. Two "stampers", one featuring Thomas and one featuring Percy, give children the chance to recreate the images of their favourite engines (note, the stampers need quite a lot of pressure to make an image, but little hands will soon get the hang of it!), while a roller-stamp, when pulled along the screen, leaves the mark of a railway track. The double ended pen allows children to draw thick or thin lines, and is attached to the Megasketcher by a chord. But the really fun part of the Thomas the Tank Engine Megasketcher is the way the screen clears: pull down on Harold the Helicopter and watch as he slowly rises to the top, making a superb racket as he does so and cleaning away drawings to make the megasketcher ready for your young da Vinci to start all over again. This is excellent fun for children of 3 years and over.- -Susan Harrison
