Does the pen drips? is it easy for a toddler to unscrew the tip part where the water goes into?

It is easy for children to open the tip part and fill up water. But the pen quality is not good. The tip gets break easily. Even with the light pressure wen a child tries to write on mat, the tip gets break. That's my personal experience.

The pen doesn't drip on it's own, that being said though, I purchased two of these for my 2 and 4 year old children. Within the first 15 minutes they had already figured out how to unscrew them and dumped the water out. On another note these are really quite boring to play with, once the mat is wet you have to wait for it to dry before you can draw anymore and the colors are always the same (obviously). I really felt this product was way overpriced and so totally not worth it.

It does not drip and it is not easy to unscrew so most toddlers would be unable to do so. My toddler loves is and so do I.

I had one issue with a "drippy" pen and that's because it was broken. I got two replacement pens and never had an issue. I screw them on tight enough that my son cannot get them off by himself.. The good thing is, if they ever were to get it off, it's only water and can't harm them.

The pens do not drip. My 3 yr. old grandson can easily unscrew the tip to reload the water with supervision. He loves to doodle awhile and then thinks he needs to go refill it too often. The painting tool doesn't drip out of its holder either.

YrEs it acts like a normal drinking cup they just have to push down on cup with their lip and is comes out pretty easy. My 2.5year old uses it well

You do indeed need to unscrew the top to drink. My three adult children and I like it so much that we usually end up downing the entire contents in a few swigs, so that has not been an issue. No more forcing myself to take in my water requirements a sip at a time.

The pen retracts when turned counter clock wise. Once this has been done, the pen will not leak. This is a great pen!!

No, there is no valve. This is good for older toddlers because they can get a large drink. When it tips it only spills whatever liquid is in the straw. I wouldn't recommend it without supervision or if you are looking for a leak proof bottle. Hope that helps.

It doesn't have a button but you can turn the head so where it goes into the different types of sprays one of them is off. Well barely dripping. It isn't hard. My 9 and 10 year old mess around with the different water sprays all the time.

It slows down the flow (for younger babies/toddlers) and makes it more spill proof. My kids can't get enough flow with it so we never use it in this cup. Only issue is when tipped and the piece not inserted they do spill very easily and sometimes the liquid shoots out.

We haven't had that problem and our 5 yr. old still acts like a kitten. Worst problem we've had is a little wetness around the bowl from kitty playing with the water. It's a cool fountain in that it has 2 top reservoirs and the waterfall.

No, it's pretty good. The only thing that is bad is that the tip leaks occasionally.

I just used water, works fine as long as your kids don't mess with the cap. ;^)

Nothing comes out if the child turns it upside down and shakes it. The only problem we've had with it is that liquid just comes up and out when it's closed tightly. Pressure issues? Other than that it's a great soppy cup and I can just give baby the cup without worrying about her spilling everywhere.

If you unscrew the pen there is a little filter, it snaps apart from the nib. There is a little switch on the side that you suction the ink inside the filter

Yes, can't see y not, the bottom is detachable so if u wanted to keep a small kiddie pool inside the pen that'd be easier to clean up plus keep them safe, I love my pen just wish the Velcro pieces were longer to keep botttom attached but there isn't anything DUCT TAPE can't fix lol, I feel puppies should be 8 weeks b4 leaving mom, she teaches them so much in 2 weeks that'll help them oyt the rest of their lives, just a former boxer breeders point of view, but yes u'll love this pen, little tricky to fold up but learnable

No, it's is a modernized fountain pen. It has a plastic trap that holds the ink and allows for a steady ink-flow through the tip. There's no hassle to dip the pen in a jar of ink and there is now worries about dripping or messes. I do recommend learning on how to care for these pens. i let mine sit for a little while and what little ink dried inside. I had to do a little manual cleaning for it, but it didn't take much. A little warm water and it was good as new.

I don't think it's very hard to drink from at all- this cup is valve free and seems to flow well. Still my son's favorite cup and he's 2 and a half now (we've been using this model since 11 months old)!

Yes, the pen writes reliably, immediately, smoothly, and doesn't skip. However, if you leave the cap off for multiple minutes without writing, the tip will dry slightly and may write lightly until it rewets.

Yes. The straw comes out and it can be tipped back to drink. My 3 year old and 10 month old use it with ease.
