User questions & answers

Question:	What is the age range for this
Answer:	If you don’t want to stack them one on top another, 10 Polychromos or 10 Prismacolor pencils will lay flat in each small section without stacking one on top another. I don’t have watercolor pencils but I am guessing they are similar in size. Quite a few more can fit in each section if you layer them.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can the individual flutes be divided so one can go in each stocking
Answer:	Well, I bought it for my daughter when she was 5, but she played with it maybe 6 months. It's cheap enough that it seemed worth it. I would think though it would be more for 3-5Yrs.
Question:	If the kids suck instead of blow, will they get bath water in their mouths
Answer:	It depends on how much you want to help ;). I would say about 4-5 if you'd like to be there sitting with them. If you'd like them to work independently I'd say 6-7. Hope that helps.
Question:	How do you clean these? Can they be put in the dishwasher
Answer:	I think so. I have some Sharpies sorted in it and they fit well.
Question:	Would a 5 or 6 year old girl enjoy this, or is it for younger kids
Answer:	I love the unit will it be available in the future?
