The Squiggle Shapes On-the-Go ($9.95)was a hit with an 8 year old friend.
The premise is that you spin the wheel at the top to randomly choose a shape, and draw a picture using that shape.
Here, the shape was a trapezoid, so here is a drawing using that shape
Pretty fun, eh? The pad comes with a pencil too that is stored with the pad, making it perfect to keep in the car or in a bag. Though my tester wished it came with an eraser (I didn't mind that though).
The Squiggle Dinosaurs On-the-Go pad was another great pad, though I think it's a little harder for younger kids or those paleontologically-challenged, like me.
You start with a pre-made squiggle already printed on the pad
and then you spin the wheel to pick a dinosaur. Then you use that squiggle to draw the dinosaur.
I can barely tell a dinosaur apart from an alligator (or Dino Flintstone, for that matter), so I could see how kids might get frustrated by this pad, unless of course they're big into dinosaurs. I know as an art teacher that once kids hit middle school, they want to draw things as realistically as possible, and they often get frustrated when something doesn't look like the real thing. If that's the case for your kids, you might want to pick something easier to draw, like the Squiggle Barnyard On-the-Go pad.
I think the Alphabet Squiggle would be great for practicing ABCs.
There are so many more varieties, and to tell you the truth, I'd love to get one of each for SoJo when he gets older. I loved drawing and activity books as a kid, and these leave so much more to the imagination than typical coloring books.

I would like to get this for Lydia for those long car rides to Grandpa's house.
She is a huge fan of the ocean so I would get the SQUIGGLE® Ocean On-The-Go pad.
My favorite is the Squiggle Barnyard On-The-Go. My grandson loves animals and this would keep him busy on those long drives to grandma's house.

I have a girlie girl that just loves to draw and draw fashion so when I saw SQUIGGLE Style I knew this was just perfect for her. I think she might even end up being a fashion designer when she grows up~! I myself can not draw a stick figure but artist run in the family. I even have a niece in college for the arts right now. She can draw just like her father (my brother) her sister can too but I don't know what happened to me lol SQUIGGLE ON THE GO is wonderful. I think any child who loves to draw would like these. Thanks for sharing this review and giveaway~!

I would choose "Bugs on the Go" because Jojo is big into bugs right now, from a scientific perspective. He used our old aquarium to make a bug habitat today.
