Toys Smart Sketcher 2.0, Learn to Draw Toy, DIY Coloring Pages, STEAM Learning Toy, Kids Toys, Birthday Gift for Girls & Boys, 5+

Purchased for my 12 year old grandson who found drawing concepts a challenge. He found the sketcher easy to use, motivational and helped with getting a grasp on drawing.

My grand girls absolutely love this there ages are 4 and 7. Great gift!

So the way this projects stuff is like a small pixelated grid; think a cross stitch pattern. If you want super finely detailed images you can trace perfectly, this might not be right for you. Mostly, I use it for lettering. I’m terrible and slow at it and this helps loads.PROS:-Easy set up-Cheapest thing on the market-Excellent for lettering and simple patterns-Saves a lot of time v. transfers-Lightweight, sturdyCONS:-You can’t really adjust images as you go; you need image editing software and fiddling around with sizes for a bit. I set up a template to speed up the process. Photopea or GIMP = free software. Trying to lower or raise the device yields blurry images. Not ideal.-Very small details will get lost. For some images I was only ablr to lay down a few dots of icing as a rough outline, then I had to free hand the rest. But it allowed to keep the images neat and consistent, so it WAS helpful. It just didn’t do most of the work like you might expect.

I purchased a smArt Sketcher Projector and 2 add on SD cards for my granddaughter’s birthday. My granddaughter liked this present when it worked . Early on they started having sporadic problems with it. .The projector would work then stop working, so they would re-insert the SD card and often get a “card reader error”. This occurred with three different SD cards, and became more frequent over time.I noticed other people had similar problems and I decided to write Flycatcher, since I saw them respond to feedback. I’m glad I did! The Flycatcher Support team sent me a new projector and two new SD cards. It’s nice to know a company will stand behind their product and provide good customer service. I will not hesitate or purchase again from them.

So I have to start by saying, out of the box this thing looks kinda cool without plugging it in. Next, it has a programed USB that is an ear, yes its a dinosaur, you cannot tell me any different! Anyway...back to the review. The USB has a ton of images on it and is a great start for any beginning artist. Then you have the multiple options you can choose from, you want letters, they have letters, you want pictures, they have pictures, you want sound, it has sound and backdrops...awesome! I was happier than my kid! LOL!Coolest feature of all, the ability to link to your phone, yes, you can link your photos to the contraption and watch them become projections...mind blown, and its a child's toy...yeah right. What?...I didn't have things like this when I was a kid!You can use with batteries or plug it in, so its great in a hotel room when traveling (keep the kiddos busy until bedtime) or you are at the family reunion (entertain the kiddos), whatever. Point is, I love this thing and it is a welcomed addition to our home.

I bought this Smart Sketcher for my 8 year old for Christmas and she loves it. You need to have a updated phone or tablet in order to down load the App. The App worked great and there were no connectivity issues. The Pictures taken with the camera however that is projected to the paper is so detailed that every shadow prints out on the paper. So if you are not a professional artist your image will not look anything like what it sopose to, when your done tracing the lings. I tried it myself with an image of me and nearly fell over laughing when I was done with the trace! It looked nothing like me! good item to have though, lots of fun.

Love this little projector. Used it to decorate cookies. Works great. Super simple to use and that’s exactly what I need

The children love this gadget. It's been a lovely little tool to keep the kids happily occupied, and learning a skill. We temporarily misplaced the little case and memory card within an hour of opening the box - so I recommend parents take a good look at those pieces and maintain custody of them. We took this with us on a trip, and I think the power cord has been left behind - so y'all probably want to be careful about that component as well.Kids aged 9 and 4 were both ecstatic about their drawings - super proud of themselves, super excited to show their work around, and thrilled to bust this thing out in the morning as soon as they wake up and get to work while I get their breakfast ready. They would watch tutorials online and draw, but they are usually a little heartbroken when they're done because they don't like their work. This helps generate a much happier outcome.I am super pleased with this purchase and I would recommend to anybody out there with tiny crafters who enjoy drawing but may need a little more guidance than watching a tutorial.
