Pixos Ultimate Design Station Review
My son is 7 and loves the 3-D Pixos! The station is nice and keeps the little pixos organized and neatly contained. My only warning would be to open with your child and make sure to keep the 3-D tray. It is clear plastic and looks like it's just part of the packaging. We initially threw it away, but luckily read the directions and realized it before the garbage was taken away!

An Easy, Clean Art Studio PixOs are tiny, colored beads that adhere together when lightly sprayed by water and allowed to dry. The premise is simple, but it allows kids to create fairly complex sculptures in a non-toxic and mess-free way. Using PixOs, children create designs by placing the beads on a grid-like tray. To place PixOs, kids can use either the provided "pen," or use their fingers. Once the PixOs have been placed, the child sprays them with water using the included spray bottle and allows them to dry. Once dry, the PixOs sculptures can be removed from the tray and placed anywhere.
The Ultimate Design Station requires some assembly, which a parent should be able to quickly do. Once assembled, the station provides many tools that make playing with PixOs even easier. It includes a PixOs sorter and dispenser, which is helpful since the tiny beads are often easy to lose track of. It also features a bendable hose fan, which can help speed up the drying process. This hose fan can also function as a clamp, allowing kids to hold their creations in place and work on them piece-by-piece.
Please note that the PixOs are tiny. Although the recommended age on the box says four and up, younger children may require close supervision.
Templates and Accessories Expand Creative Options
Included with the Ultimate Design Station are four template designs of varying difficulty that will help children get accustomed to using PixOs. With these templates, kids can make dinosaurs, cars, fish and more. Once these templates have been mastered, kids can create whatever they want and will only be limited by their imaginations. Also included are two wheels and two hinges, which are designed to clasp onto PixOs beads. With these accessories, you can make cars, crocodile jaws, or anything else one can think of.
