I recently got my hands on the Seajan 12 Set Watercolor Paint Set, and it's been a blast using it with my niece. The set comes with everything a budding artist needs: 12 mini canvases with easels, 12 watercolor paint palettes, and 12 cute canvas tote bags. It's like a mini art studio in a box!
The watercolors are surprisingly vibrant for a budget-friendly set. The colors blend beautifully with just a bit of water, and the included brush works well for small projects. My niece loved experimenting with mixing colors on the palette - though be warned, the white paint gets used up fastest when making pastels!
The 3x3" canvases are indeed tiny - about the size of a large postcard. While some reviewers complained about the size, I found it perfect for kids' short attention spans. We completed several paintings in one afternoon! The wooden easels are adorable but do wobble a bit - they're better for display than active painting.
The canvas tote bags were the unexpected star of this set. They're sturdier than I expected, with cute art-themed prints. My niece now uses hers to carry around her favorite art supplies. For party favors or classroom gifts, these sets are fantastic - just be sure to check whether you need 12 or 24 sets before ordering!
My only real complaint? The paint palettes could use better labeling - we had to guess which color was which until we tested them all out.
