Squiggle Review & Giveaway – CLOSED

March 24th, 2010 • Related • Filed Under

My two older kids loved to scribble and then draw when thy were younger, and it was a way to keep them occupied in the car. Now, my toddler is starting to have an interest in “dawing,” and I can’t wait until she is big enough to enjoy a Squiggle Pad.

What is a squiggle? Well — a squiggle is a a random line. It can be squiggly, wiggly, wavy or just wacky! It’s simply the start of something. A squiggly line may blossom into a beautiful flower, speed off into the shape of a race car or simply form a funny face. It’s up to you and your imagination to transform it into something . . . maybe a work of art!

And RandomLine.com has taken the concept of “squiggles” and turned them into mind-exercising games and activity pads that encourage children and adults to be creative. Their Award-Winning products are known as the SQUIGGLE Series, and they adorable, portable-sized fun for kids to take in the car, to doctor or orthodontist appointments, or anytime when quiet play would be preferable.

Squiggle pads come lots of of varieties — educational (alphabet, colors and shapes) and drawing pads with different themes such as fashion or barnyard, etc. The pads are suggested for ages 4 and up. You can buy them at many retailers and specialty toy stores, and they would make great little gifts to put in an Easter Basket.
