Brain Games - Sticker by Number: Ocean Treasures

Reason why I bought it:I am a huge arts and crafts person and I really wanted something calming/relaxing to do at the hospital before going into labor as I was induced. It satisfied my craving to do my favorite hobby and distracted me during the long labor process. Plus if I made a mistake I didn't worry too much about it since the sticker book could be colored in to hide the imperfect sticker alignment afterward. Not to mention it was quick to finish one page of the book and feel satisfied that you completed a goal when your in pain. This would probably be great for long road trips, on a plane, or long hospital visits.Now I know this is probably mostly used for kids so since I only did a couple of pages I plan on saving some of the pages for my kid to do once their older. I think it's cute that they can finish what you started before giving birth to them. My spouse was even interested in filling out a page.Product quality:I love the ocean and its animals so this sticker book was my number one choice. The images are very colorful and vibrant so it's perfect for kids and adults to enjoy. Plus I thought this wouldn't be time consuming but each page took me about 15-30 mins to complete as an adult. I can imagine it taking longer for children.Pros:-Relaxing and meditative-Vibrant images-Cheap-Good for kids and adultsCons:- Would have liked the sticker sheets to be next to the image I was filling in so I didn't have to tear it out from the back of the book to complete. Especially since some of the sticker sheets had different paged animals on the same sheet. This was a slight annoyance because I had loose sticker sheets in the book and could easily lose one of them which means half of an image might not get filled. I can see this primarily being an issue with younger children. This is only a small nitpick though.Overall:I plan on buying more of these because it is easy to do between feeding my baby. I can't really do bigger art projects right now since my baby is so young and I would be afraid of dropping a needle or the baby swallowing the small pieces. This is perfect for satisficing my creativity and improving my mood overall.

This book was really fun to complete. It was very colourful and easy to follow instructions. I will buy more from this series.

These books are incredibly useful for any children but especially for special needs kids when you need them to wait patiently (restaurants, appointments etc.) which is very difficult for them. Fantastic for kids with autism and /ADHD, for developing fine motor skills, focus, attention, logic. These books were life changing for us and we bought the entire series because they are not very cheap but my God they saved us. The quality of the stickers is very good and the images are very nice. There are pages with full images that are like a whole puzzle image and pages with stickers (like puzzle pieces) and they indicate the number of the image they are foreseen for. If you place the puzzle piece wrongly you can detach it and place it several times until it is perfectly placed which is good for those who are 'perfectionists'. It is also a good idea that all the pages containing the stickers can be detached and therefore you can work easily on your image placing the stickers and in the end you will have only an album with the finished images. We like that the puzzle pieces are not placed in a consecutive order so you need a bit of time to search for that particular place where to put the piece. Hopefully there are more books like that coming soon. And if there is need to test any new books we would be very interested to receive them as our kid is obsessed with them. Thanks!!!
