Activity Pads for Travel and Everyday Play

The Water Wow! activity pads use a water-reveal format, making them a convenient option for travel, quiet time, or creative play without traditional paint. Available themes in the catalog include vehicles, animals, safari scenes, colors and shapes, fairy tales, and farm settings. The reusable design lets children revisit the activity after the pages dry.

These pads can suit shoppers looking for a compact activity with a themed subject rather than a traditional drawing surface. Their format also makes them easy to pair with other travel-friendly Toys & Games products.

Drawing, Coloring, and Scratch Art Supplies

For open-ended projects, Melissa & Doug offers drawing paper and sketch pads intended for coloring, sketching, and other paper-based artwork. Shoppers can also find replacement paper rolls for compatible easels, providing a larger surface for drawing and painting sessions.

Scratch Art mini notes add a different creative format. The sets feature color scratch art pages and a wooden stylus, with small notes that can work for personal artwork, party favors, or small gifts. These products offer a more guided activity than blank paper while still leaving room for children to create their own designs.

Choosing Between Melissa & Doug Craft Options

Start with the type of activity that fits the child and setting:

• Choose reusable Water Wow! pads for mess-free, portable play and themed activities.
• Choose drawing paper, sketch pads, or easel rolls for flexible artwork with crayons, markers, or paint.
• Choose Scratch Art for a simple reveal activity using a wooden stylus.
• Choose a decorate-your-own wooden princess wand kit for a project that combines painting and decorating.
