I was really impressed with the SmART Sketcher. She was able to trace the design relatively easily and she was so pleased with the end result, which she then coloured in. Miss J absolutely loved this and set straight out using a picture of our dog Lexi with the app. The projector cleverly converts it into a traceable picture (with variable levels of detail). It’s certainly a lot more fun than learning to write his letters in more traditional ways! There are also pictures that you can trace and you can change the settings so that they feature in colour too which is great.įor those who want more of a challenge there is an associated app which is free to download and using this you can use any image from your phone or tablet with the projector. We found this brilliant for Little Boy as it has some easy drawings and letters and numbers that they can trace too which has been great with helping him to learn to write his letters. It comes with a pre-loaded SD card which has some simple drawings and is suited to younger children. The whole thing is really easy to put back in the box afterwards too. It has pull out feet which you can use to hold your paper in place which is a great idea. We plugged it into a shady corner of the dining room and this worked really well. The only restriction to this I found was that the SmART Sketcher was best used when not in direct sunlight so you could see the projections better. It takes batteries or you can plug it in, which was what we did. The device is essentially a projector which projects and image onto a piece of paper that your child can trace. We all know how much our children love and thrive using technology and this clever device assists that process, enabling them to use technology to have fun in the physical world too. The SmART Sketcher is the invention of a dad who wanted to integrate the digital and physical worlds of learning through play. So when I was offered the chance to review the SmART Sketcher Projector from Character Online I jumped at the chance because I knew she would really love it, and it turns out that my other two (4 and 11) really love it too so it’s been a great addition to our crafts and toys supplies. She lives and breathes it and I’m always finding bits of paper here there and everywhere with her masterpieces on. My middle daughter absolutely loves drawing.
