Those are cute and since three of my grands are in the art stage at 3 years of age I almost ordered them. I wonder if they would consider all socks fair game at that age?

PKponderTX, That would be my concern, too, that the children would think they could color all of their socks and their parents' socks, as well.

My 5 year grand daughter would love those. Someone gave her a color your own messenger bag for her birthday and she takes it everywhere.

I think a three year old might be a bit young to color in the fine lines on stretchy fabric with a permanent marker.

Yep.....great idea...but permanent markers....oooooh......IDK! I remember when they had a "cut Barbies Hair" doll.

Guess what I just saw tonight on a run to Dollar General on "As Seen On TV" shelf? Colored marker kits for kids' pajamas! The box shows kids with pjs laid out flat in front of them and coloring.

very cute idea! age would be determining factor.

not sure if still made, but crayola at one time had crayons that could be used to make t-shirt iron-on transfers. safer than anything permanent, imo!

MANY years ago, niece and nephew were sleeping over. their uncle (now my ex) went out and bought a surprisingly good combination of artsy stuff. coloring books, blank paper to draw on, crayons... then there were the "smelly" markers! not labeled permanent but not labeled washable either. colors had smells... yellow/lemon, brown/chocolate, orange/orange. before the kids saw them, i put them out of sight. i asked their uncle if HE was going to be with them every minute? when answer was less than certain... markers went away. i was NOT being grouchy! i knew if crayola washable markers, they coulda colored each other and would have hosed right off.

Think this is one of those projects that parents must supervise with younger children. The designs that I've seen look more geared to the older pre-teen kids.

I remember McDonalds giving ink stampers in Happy Meals. The stamper was built into the bottom of a tiny car so when you pushed the car it left a ink design...in permanent ink. I was not Happy with McDonalds.

Will consider for the older grands now!
