Turn Color into Musicolor!

My 5 year old daughters favorite thing to do is craft time. She loves to get out the crayons and markers and get creative. While this is fun (and we most definitely do it everyday), it's exciting to put a new spin on an old activity.

Delta Creative has come up with a product that is so cool and so unique; it has me scratching my head, wondering "how the heck did they do that?". It's Musicolor, and it's been the craft time rage over at our house ever since we got it.

Musicolor is essentially a record player that plays records (or discs) that your child has colored. Here is the cool part: Your child colors the records in a "paint-by-number" fashion with special "note" markers. They put the record on the player, and the player plays what your child created on the disc. Honestly, it feels a bit like magic.



The disc (which are included) play familiar childhood songs such as "Three Blind Mice", "Hickory Dickory Dock", "Jingle Bells" and "London Bridges" just to name a few.

I gave Musicolor to my daughter for Christmas this year and she has seriously gone bonkers for it. Thankfully, you can buy a refill packet of 20 blank coloring discs from Amazon for around $7, which is very reasonably priced.

GET IT YOURSELF! Musicolor ($49.99) can be purchased online from Delta Creative or through various other online stores such as Amazon.

WIN IT! We're excited to giveaway a Musicolor to one luck Simple reader. To enter, Visit Delta Creative, come back here and leave a comment letting us know who would get to play with this if you won it.

For additional entries: (comment once for each entry)
Winner will be randomly selected and announced 1/19/10. Good luck!

  1. If I were lucky enough to win this, it would be a gift for my niece Destiny, who has an abundance of energy and imagination, and is an incredibly musical child. Musicolor sounds as if it would keep her entertained and give her mom some well-deserved quiet time. :)

  11. My husband would be such a fan of this, since he is always going on about how we need to have a record player for our kids! Hehe.
    Our son is learning to color and loves it. He also is a music fanatic. So yes, I would hoard this prize until our son's birthday in May - and it would certainly be the highlight of his party. :)
