Educational Insights Pete the Cat Papercraft Paper Doll Coloring Set, 100 Outfits, Boys & Girls Ages 3+

Every kid loves Pete the cat! Even more fun when you can create costumes for him to wear to reenact the stories.

We ordered two of these and one has exactly what is described. Color in pages, stickers, everything they love. The second one has the right amount of pages but it is all the same page... luckily we can pull and trade, but one twin was definitely disappointed.

My 3 year old niece loved using this while she was in bed rest after an injury 👏

When I was a kid, we played with Colorforms. One of the greatest toys ever made. They weren't expensive, there were tons of different styles, and we would often mix-and-match across sets for even more fun. This set kind of reminded me of that, but without as much diversity. Yes, it's nice that the user gets to color the outfits to suit their taste; however, to say there are "100 outfits" is very deceiving. There are 2 pages of outfits which are repeated 5 times each. I suppose if you colored them all differently, you could convince yourself that you'd created 100 outfits, but why not include more styles? That's the main reason I gave this 4 stars instead of 5. Pete is cute, but it would be nice if he could stand on his own. How much could it cost to add a small slotted stand? And speaking of cost, at nearly $15 for this set, I also think it's overpriced for the actual content.

Whenever I go to a restaurant with my toddler, I always have to make sure my bag is packed with a few activities to keep her entertained. Otherwise, she would fuss and not want to sit at the table and will constantly ask to be walked around and that would result in me not being able to sit and enjoy the food and company. I recently got this Pete the Cat coloring activity set and I was pleasantly surprised that this one activity was able to keep my toddler entertained while we all ate and had a wonderful dinner out. She would take her bites of food and happily colored and dressed the Pete the Cat doll. She would so proudly show everyone at the table her coloring and the outfits she put on the doll. Everyone would smile and say their “oohs” and “ahhs” which made it very interactive and made my toddler happy. Fantastic activity to have in your bag! Didn’t have to break out any other activities or ipad during our dinner out.
