Funova Magic Canvas & Brush Set

Children dip a clean brush in water and draw on the canvas. The picture appears as they go and then fades as the canvas dries, ready to use again. There is no paint or ink involved, so it is a mess-free way to draw at home or on the go.

The Magic Canvas and brush set is suitable from 6 months and up. Because it uses only water with no paint or ink, it suits very young children who are just starting to make marks, as well as older children who enjoy drawing and tracing pictures.

The set includes one Magic Canvas, one Magic Brush Set and two cotton storage bags. The canvas unrolls to 43 by 108 cm and rolls down to a compact 43 by 7 by 6 cm, so it is easy to lay out for play and pack away or carry when you are finished.

The canvas frame uses beech wood with unbleached cotton rope, and the drawing surface is a water-activated fabric. It is made with non-toxic, child-friendly materials, so it suits everyday use by young children and packs down into the included cotton bags.

Yes. Because pictures are made with plain water rather than paint or ink, there is nothing to spill, stain or clean up. The artwork fades as the canvas dries and is then ready to draw on again, which makes it well suited to travel and quiet indoor play.

Use clean brushes only, since brushes that still hold leftover pigment from other art supplies can transfer colour onto the fabric. Dip the brush in water, draw your picture, and let it fade as it dries before starting again. Roll the canvas up in its cotton bag for storage.
