i remember a coloring book where the brush had like rubbing alcohol inside and it wouldnt draw on anything else except the book but the pen would run out before you could complete a page
Honestly I can’t imagine an adult using this with any regularity 😂 it’s only really worthwhile if you have kids. I kinda wanna buy it just to mess around with but I know I can give it to my kids when I get bored so it isn’t a total waste
Then you lose the paper and it’s now just a hunk of plastic and you always tell yourself ‘oh I’ll buy more paper’ but you never can find any and it just ends up collecting dust in a bucket or on a shelf
i think it’s a PH paper and the paint contains something sour. The Colours seem to match the ones of a PH scale, that’s probably why it also has the special paper
If I'm not mistaken there is actually different chemicals in the "paints" and that's why they show the color only on the reactive paper. Its supposed to be mess free. I used to have to markers that work the same way and the smell of it is so nostalgic.
Yes, according to Wikipedia crayola has a patent on it but that it’s leuco dyes in the ‘paint’, and the reactive paper contains zinc ions so it reacts to acidic substances
Rule #1 in chemistry “don’t sniff the chemicals” Crayola: *puts chemicals in a “paint” for kids* Jinx Hexxus McCartney: *sniffs Chemicals* yup nostalgic.
So that means when you mix your colors on the palette, the chemicals mix but you can't see that theyve mixed so your blue will be green for a long time and you never know when?
If you want to know it’s most likely an acid base indicator with it being clear when basic/neutral and appearing in an acidic environment. Try spraying lemon juice(over the paper or paint) or adding lemon juice or powdered citric acid to the water on your brush it should turn colorful
@@jocelyn248 It's like invisible ink. The color is there, it just only shows up on special (acidic) paper. The light in the pen is just programmed in to match for fun.
Yeah, looking back at it my parents probably git me that because there is no mess. Before I had those pens, I would literally give vandal mode on the walls.
Rina/Lina nim i have used these , personally these are not as good as regular paper and paint. One of the biggest disadvantage is that it works only on the kind of paper provided by the company. Stay happy and healthy 😊
I’m sure they are awful for anyone trying to be intentional in their art 😂 Imagine sitting there waiting for your paint stroke to show up. Lolllll (and when it does you realize you mixed red and green and fucked your entire painting up 🤡)
I had magic markers when I was a kid and I absolutely lived them!! The only thing that sucked, was they need special paper, and it was sometimes hard to find
i had those too, and the problem was u couldn't just buy the paper like plain just white u would have to buy the kit. another one that was fun that i had were the stampers.
@@marissaengle7355 I remember my mom found 1 toys r us thay sold notebooks of that paper in complete blank and basically created a black market selling them to kindergartens and stuff
There was a Crayola version of the paint and as a kid I was obsessed with the idea of strange colors of lipstick (and had no idea how to get it). Apparently I slathered my lips in the blue paint and found out real quick that I'm actually allergic to something in it lol. Still love blue lipstick to this day though 😅
When you realize that the paper is just a giant ph strip reacting to various acidic substances, then you'll also realize that anyone would have a bad time if they smeared it on their lips.
@@godforreal7355 I was surprised too, but it doesn’t work by pH. There is a electrolyte in the pans and the paper is on a thin zinc sheet connected to the casing of the pan. The pen forces a current to create the colors. I’m just not sure whether there are different electrolytes in the color pans or a difference in voltage and amperage is enough for the color change. Electrochemistry can be fun
I’m 17 I’m allowed to draw anymore my mom told so today she was mad and also my annoying sisters thinks I did cause I knew that I drew I can’t be normal as a teenager 😡😤😭
I'm definitely going to have to get this for my daughter. She loves to paint and draw, but is so messy with regular paint, and ALWAYS forgets the marker lids 😂 so this would be perfect.
i used to use the color wonder (also crayola) markers because my mom was very strict about messy things. they were so fun for me and they actually just have the paper at walmart usually so she would just grab some when grocery shopping. overall pretty dang fun
I wonder if it's some sort of pH chemical reaction, you know like the dipsticks and litman paper? That pretty cool though! I'd love to know how it all works.
According to Wikipedia, “[the pigment] uses a composition containing a colorless leuco dye that changes to color in the presence of acid.[2] The substrate in the Color Wonder paper contains zinc ions which trigger the development of color in the dyes when the marker inks are applied.[2] The zinc ions act as Lewis acids to drive the color-changing chemical reaction.[2]”

used to have something like this as a kid. wasnt nearly as fancy as this, but back in the day crayola made packs of mess-free markers with the same special ink inside, along with the paper needed to actually make it work. they were pretty mindblowing at the age of 8, i have to admit.
It used to just be called mess-free fingerpaint when I was a kid. The brush does literally nothing to the paint, it just looks cool. It's been around at least 15 years if not 20.
They had paintbrush pens at the height of my color wonder days. That and the metallics were the best. Think I had glow in the dark color wonder finger paint too but it’s been a while
I remember it being fingerpaint that was advertised as way to not stain clothes. I played with it and my cousins as a kid, at least 15 years ago. I know I was less than 10, but don't know exactly.

I had a colouring book like that but with clear markers, it only worked with it's special paper. Once my mom got me markers for school turned out it was the clear ones, she bought it thinking they were regular markers. I was lucky to have the sheets so it wasn't a total waste and I got more colours
the paints have different levels of ph and the paper measures that ph with colors its a way of measuring acidity edit: holy shit wtf tysm for the likes :D
Who remembers the doodle mats though? It was like a rug sized mat that went on the floor and came with a pen that when dipped in water would doodle on the mat and come up different colours, then I'm fairly certain you could wash it or it would fade away so you could use it again. Now that was fun 😌
They still make these! ‘Aqua doodle’….I got my son a paw patrol one like 2/3 years ago and it came with special stamps too that did paw patrol vehicle stamps
ive always wanted onnneee I'm now highly considering this though. I got the one where you could make your own marker colors which i loved that one a lot. There were a lot of parts and it was a bit of a hassle to put it together but I still loved it.
Since its a chemical reaction im not so sure if it can even do layers. Unlike pigments the color is coming from the paper itself so there wouldnt be any layers, just blending.
Omg you just brought back so many memories! I never had the light brush. But i did have the finger paint version of this! I can literally remember the smell and texture!!!
Same, it didn't look as fancy or have the light up brush but I remember the colorless paints working on the special paper! Had it sometime around 2006-08 probably?
This is like the reverse of some calligraphy stuff I did in Chinese class. The magic paper, as we called it, reacted with regular water so whenever someone painted with it, the water went black on only the paper and never transferred onto anything else. And, once the water dried, the black completely disappeared. It was super cool and I wish I asked my teacher how it worked
I had a version of this as a kid!!! No fancy paintbrush but the Crayola color wonder products have always been a favorite of mine, and of course quite the mystery :)
crayola had a bunch of this sort of magical feeling stuff when i was a kid. i remember one where it was a magic coloring book, came in white and black page versions, and when you drew on it with a special marker it would draw in rainbow ink.
This reminds me of a conversation I had with my mum where I found out that apparently I used to have a magic wand and when you touch it to a colour and then tap it against this plant the plant would change to that colour 💛
the way it works is with the pH scale! each paint has a different number on it, which is why you can mix colors the paper they have is for pH testing, so if you run out you have to either find more or you can’t use it
yes a little bit I had a cheaper version when I was younger (still crayola but no light up brush) but the colors do mix in the pots and after awhile they might not still be clear
@@spatulishNo, it's the "paint". It's dyes that are colorless at a more alkaline pH and change color when in the presence of an acid. So to answer the OP, I doubt the pots would discolor visibly, but you can definitely contaminate the pots with other colors.
Oh, that's so cool! I have crayola color wonder markers, or at least used to. If this works the same way, you should be able to paint it with a regular brush since it's the medium and the paper that make the magic happen. It's really cool!
I had a Disney coloring book that was sort of like this in the late 90s when I was really young. It had a clear marker, but whenever you would mark on the images, it would color them whatever color they were supposed to be.
But the existence of the cybernetic dragon implies that the baby is not real so I think it was more of an allusion to the sun god phenomenon in season 12-13, also I think her eyes are more cat-like than dog like because it signifies the importance of the cat constellation in the pharmacy war during season 11’s climax. Just my opinion though.
@@AmeliaEarhart53756 OMG I was commenting on a Grey's Anatomy video!!! I have no idea whatsoever how my comment ended up on this one (and no, I swear I'm not technologically challenged!). This is hilarious though!

THANK YOU. Was looking for something like this for my daughter. She's 2 and a half, and the paint with water sheets are even a bit too messy at times😂 I'm getting her this asap
This was my childhood i literally got one as a little girl idk how much my parents literally had to save just get me this one thing with extra paper because i remember only came with like 9 sheets being really plor as a kid this was one great gufts that others went really thats most expensive gift at time but literally bragged about it going yeah so who cares i dont got a wii when it first came out so didnt get a tv but i got this i was loved it so much i still kept it yes i still have it my parents saw it asked why i still got it i told them its because as a kid when we were dirt poor you gave me this i loved coloring and having find coloring books not colored in thrift stores was hard enough but i told them was my first ever new crayola type thing for art and even though may not work idk its in my basement somewhere but its a memory that may seem like old junk toy to others but to me a memory that made my parents os happy and cry seeing me hug it jumping up and down screaming with joy running around and literally holding it as a kid when i went to bed (rip) my dad i bet he remembers and to this day when i see something that makes me look back at my childhood i get that little girl feeling unlock inside of me
this one’s really fancy I had a cheaper version of this and I just sat in the garage. I have a memory of finding it, and it came with a coloring book. lmao I didn’t have a brush so i used my fingers
Still nothing magical about it. But it’s amazing science. I will definitely look into it 🤩 Edit: I didn’t find the reaction yet, but I found some nice sexism on Crayola‘s page: „So kids can explore the joy of painting and *moms* can let them create without worry!“ 😤
@@NexusBecauseWhyNot Fathers are supposed to be just as much of a parent as mothers are. The sentence insinuated that mothers are the ones buying this for the kids and are the one watching them use it whilst completely disregarding the existence of fathers. And what about same-sex couples? "Parent" would be a more accurate word.
@@mikamagnol8931 Mothers are a demographic that have been targeted by marketing agencies since the very begining of television, and that stems from the fact that they used to stay home with their children, and would do groceries for the family. Fathers, even if they are stay-at-home, are less likely to buy something like this for their children (usually going for something more "practical", like lego brick sets and toys that look like tools). I don't personally see it as sexist because I don't think this piece of outdated merketing would hurt anyone, nor is really needed to include every single person that takes care of a child imaginable. Edit: I agree tho in the use of "parent".
If you rub the “paint” onto the special paper does it still change color? I'm assuming the paint, brush, and paper all have specific chemicals that make the magic work but I’m still curious.
The brush is just for show. The paint and paper react with each other, the brush is responding to the physical location: whichever colorful ring it was closest to is the color it turns.
