Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program What could be more appealing to a little girl than princesses, bright colors and glitter? The 12 sturdy pictures in this coloring book feature a series of pretty Disney princess poses, each printed on a background of glittery paper. The glitter is integrated into the paper and does not flake off. The 5 included Color Wonder marker pens interact with the paper to turn the pictures into pretty works of art. The markers apparently do not leave stains on clothing or furniture, though I didn't put them to the test. Though the recommended age range is 3-15, I believe this would most appeal to little girls up to about 7 or so. At ~$1/sheet, it's a rather steep price to pay for what is essentially a coloring book, but definitely a special occasion gift that a little girl will appreciate.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I used to work in travel related retailing, and I learned a vitally important lesson. Parents are absolutely starved for activities that are self contained and mess free. For this reason, I actually stocked quite a few of these Crayola products. One of our biggest sellers were the Color Wonder series. In Color Wonder, the magic markers can only react to the provided paper. So you can create an artistic masterpiece with no worries that your child will splatter themselves, neighbors, clothes or upholstery with ink. It's an ingenious idea, to be sure, and now they've taken it to the next step. This series featuring the Disney Princesses (always an easy hit) is actually done on a special glitter paper. So you've got both coloring and glitter effects with absolutely no mess. It's a winning scenario.

This set has 12 pages to color and five different color markers. Truthfully, the designs aren't the most complicated or detailed but that's probably to be anticipated. There is only so much you can expect with this super magic technology! This may not entertain for long trips, but it is a fitting diversion for a short period of time and an easy recommendation for the budding artists in your clan. KGHarris, 10/13.

Best Deals for Crayola Color Wonder Disney Princess Glitter Paper and Markers

My daughter was so excited to get this because she loves glitter. However, you cannot even color on the part that contains the glitter. It's hard on the markers and the color doesn't show very well. You're better off going for the metallic or the glitter pages without the actual glitter.

Honest reviews on Crayola Color Wonder Disney Princess Glitter Paper and Markers

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program There is one true thing about this item – the paper does have a glittery sparkle with no glitter mess. That is where the pretty much the only truth to the cover. First off, your pictures will not look anything like those on the cover. The picture on the box is bright and vibrant. Our pictures never looked that bright. Also, if you want to color the princesses the way they look on the box, you will have to buy additional markers because you don't have the necessary colors.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program My daughter is a huge Color Wonder fan, and over the last three years, we've bought just about every Color Wonder book out there. We've tried Metallic and Glitter books several times and, unfortunately, have never been really happy with them. The older Glitter books, in particular, got those little sparkly bits all over everywhere, including on the tips of the markers, thus preventing them from working.

Anyway, I'm happy to say that Crayola seems to have completely redesigned their Glitter books, and we love this new incarnation. There's nothing to make a mess... instead of actual glitter, the pages of the book simply have a background of sparkly foil around the parts of the picture you can color. The foil effect creates a really beautiful finished look, and my daughter was so proud and pleased with her work!

The only real negative about this coloring book is its price. Not only is it more expensive to start with than the regular Color Wonder products, but it has fewer pages... just 12 instead of the usual 18 or 24. I'm not sure it's worth paying almost $1 per page, but my little artist definitely loved it!
