we purchased the magnetic wands and color disks for party favors for son's 4th birthday. Most of the guests were between 3 yrs. and 6 yrs., and the kids immediately knew what the wands were and what they could do. I've heard from a few parents that their children enjoyed them all afternoon after the party.
