Spirograph Cyclex - drawing set with 6 markers and 20 sheets

Description

The Spirograph Cyclex is a drawing tool for spiral patterns. The stencil wheels sit fixed in a red holder with four openings; you put the tip of a marker into a hole in a wheel and follow the edge. The box says the wheels advance on their own as you trace.

The packaging lists the contents: 1 Cyclex drawing tool, 6 markers, 20 sheets of paper, 1 design guide and 1 storage compartment. Enough to start straight away without anything else being needed.

Because the wheels stay in the holder, there are no loose parts for a child to lay out first or to lose under the cupboard. Choose the wheel, the hole and the colour, and draw: every combination gives a different pattern, and layering several colours soon leaves you with a rosette or a flower.

The box states from 5 years. A present for a child who likes to draw and colour; the storage compartment keeps the markers and the wheels together between one drawing session and the next.
