"That's a cute idea, and I have some cool cedar that would make excellent wood slices, too. I was disappointed, though, that she didn't provide stencils or printable patterns for the animals. I'm not sure where to look for them or how to create them so I probably won't try this one."

"This is actually pretty! But first I would have to make or find a doily of the right size. I have never come across one that size and I am just learning to crochet, so I'm pretty sure I can't do that yet. Maybe I can knit an interesting circle from some lace weight yarn."

"Both of the grandkids will like this, I am sure. I printed out the pattern on white cardstock so there would be no need to reinforce it. I can have the popsicle sticks ready to go and turn them loose with the crayons (after explaining that it will be a Christmas ornament)."

"How do you enter the "free giveaways"? I don't see anywhere to submit my info for a chance to win!"

"I am a dog lover true and true but I know many cat lovers and I think if I showed them this idea they would love it too. It is hilarious and I think very true in a cat household although I did have a fear last year that our hyper dog would knock the tree over, thankfully she didnt!!!"

I was just recently watching my five-year-old color with a highlighter. I was noticing how she was holding it with her pointer finger and middle finger on top of the highlighter whereas I hold it in between those two fingers. It amazes me how people can write so differently, but one thing we can have in common is how messy we can get with highlighters. Specifically kids, when trying to pull the caps off or putting them back on, they end up getting the color all over themselves instead. With the OOLY Retractable Highlighter Pens this isn't an issue; highlighting and coloring is made easier and mess-free with these pens.

Within this set are 6 neon colored highlighters encased in a retractable click barrel. Instead of popping the top, you just have to click to highlight and click again to put it away. These pens are great for both kids and adults as you can highlight important notes at work or in textbooks and the kids can simply color or even use them for word search puzzles. What the kids will absolutely love about these is that they're scented! Sweet scents of strawberry, orange, banana, melon, blueberry and grape will arise when in use. Unlike the strong smell of Sharpies, these OOLY highlighters are delightful.

Just like any good highlighter, these have a felt chisel tip so your highlights are sure to cover everything you need. Because these are meant for ages 6 and up, we know they may not necessarily be meant for highlighting, but for designing. The 6 fun colors are sure to make anything pop. It's great on notebooks, paper, calendars, planners and more.
