User questions & answers

Question:	Do these come individually packaged/wrapped
Answer:	Yes, each item is individually packaged.
Question:	What is inside the pen? Is it non-toxic? Wondering if I want this on my child's skin
Answer:	I do not know the ingredients exactly, but the instructions tell you that if the pen runs out to soak it in rubbing alcohol for a few minutes and then let it sit and it's ready to be reused. My son has tried to color with this everywhere--his skin, clothes, my couch, the carpet--with no mess and no negative reaction on his sensitive skin. Hope this helps!
Question:	The pen runs out really quickly, any idea if they just sell e pen instead? thanks
Answer:	You can contact the manufacturer and see if they will send you a new pen, I don't think they sell an e pen. Barbara J., Customer Service Mgr., The Lake Arrowhead Company
Question:	Are the pages usable after dry
Answer:	No, the pages are only colored one time. They are not re-usable like the color WOW. They can be finished later, but cannot be done again.

More than a shape sorter--this is an on-the-go activity center!

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this ship to Guam
Answer:	Unfortunately, at this time Royal Stitches is not shipping internationally. Joann
Question:	Would this be suitable and entertaining for a 9 month old
Answer:	I don't like to generalize about children's abilities, but not many 9 month olds have the hand eye coordination to match shapes into holes. However they would enjoy playing with the pieces and carrying the case. Makes a nice travel toy and they will develop the ability to use it correctly soon enough. Ideally I think this gift would be best for about 18mos to 2 yrs.
Question:	Is it bpa free
Answer:	Thank you for your question. I called the company and they tell me that it is BPA free.
Question:	What are the measurements of the little blocks
Answer:	They are made of hard plastic and different shapes. Approximately 1 1/2 inches wide and maybe 1/2 thick. The case is a soft carrying case with clear plastic for the child to see through.
