KIDYDRAW PAD Illuminated Drawing Pad - Meli Melo

A great blue whale, a tiny ship, mermaids and sea creatures swirling in extraordinary detail, this is the one for older children who are ready to sit with something genuinely complex and come out the other side with a drawing that doesn't look like a child's drawing at all. It looks like art, and it earns a proper spot on the wall.

We love it because:

• 30 intricate, original illustrations designed for ages 10 and up, with the kind of detail that keeps a focused child genuinely busy for 30 to 45 minutes a sitting
• The backlit tablet lifts the illustration through the page so tracing feels fluid and satisfying, not frustrating, and the results are genuinely impressive
• Three difficulty levels across the booklet (6+, 8+ and 10+) mean there's a warm-up phase before the really detailed designs, which is a kind bit of design
• Magnetic, removable tablet, protective hard cover, pencil already inside. The whole thing travels beautifully, which matters a lot on a long journey or a weekend away
• Rechargeable via USB-C, screen-free, and genuinely lovely to give to a child who has outgrown simpler creative kits but isn't quite ready for a full art set
• 6 blank sheets included so they can attempt their favourite designs again from scratch, which is where the real skill-building happens

What's in the box:
