Lasted an hour before it had it ran out of paper and crayolas advice to busy parents? Spend hours drawing circles and cutting them all out by hand . Clearly designed by people who don't have kids
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We're sorry to hear that the Spin & Spiral Art Station did not meet your expectations, Jamie. We want our artists (and parents) to have the best time creating with our products. So we can learn more about how we can improve, please contact us at 1-800-CRAYOLA. Hope to speak with you soon. -Taylor @ Crayola
Great product and tons of fun for my 6 year old and 3 year old. I had a lot of fun with it as an adult too. We made some really cool art that's been on display in my office and the kids' rooms. Only downside is that the paper and ink for the spin art can run out pretty quickly, so I'm currently seeking refills.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Crayola Spin & Spiral Art Station! We’re thrilled to hear it’s been a creative hit for your kids—and even for you! It sounds like you’ve made some amazing artwork to display.
We’d love to help keep the fun going. While refills aren’t sold separately, we have some easy DIY solutions:
• Paper Discs: The discs are 6" in diameter. Simply trace one of your originals onto a paper plate and cut it out. • Ink: Use Crayola Washable Paint diluted with water as a substitute. Mix the paint and water in a washable paint cup or a plastic squeeze bottle, then use a disposable spoon to drop the paint onto your paper discs. (Tip: Discard any unused diluted paint after use.)
We hope this helps you keep creating colorful masterpieces!
Do not buy! The toy is awesome, but Crayola does not sell refills. They are quite clear about that on their website. Once you’ve used up the paint, it’s just a piece of plastic going into a landfill

This brings me back to my childhood 90s baby! I have sooo much fun with my kiddos doing these, I have started cutting paper circles and am going to try the Crayola food coloring to make more ink for the kiddos

Hi, Bianca! We are over the rainbow delighted to hear the Crayola Spin & Spiral Art Station has you feeling nostalgic. Our goal is for your family to create many colorful memories with this creative toy. Although we understand the Crayola Food Coloring looks similar to the ink included in the kit, like traditional food dyes, the hues are very potent and may create a more colorful mess than you anticipated. Our experts recommend diluting Crayola Washable Paint with water to use as refills. If you have any questions regarding this product, please contact us at 1-800-CRAYOLA. We hope you continue to have magical creative adventures with your family!
Enjoys using it. We even found paint and paper refills BUT the knob to make it spin doesn’t want to work any more. Noah is very disappointed. The spring doesn’t bounce back up. Just stays down so wheels won’t spin.
I would recommend this to a friend!

It’s great to hear that Noah has been enjoying the Spin & Spiral Art Station and that you’ve already found refills to keep the creativity flowing! However, we understand how disappointing it must be for the spinning feature to stop working, especially when it’s such an important part of the fun. The issue with the knob and spring is something we’d like to help with—please reach out to us at 1-800-CRAYOLA so we can assist further. We want to make sure he gets back to creating in no time! -Taylor, Colorful Care Team
This was a gift but it's so frustrating for both my kids and I that we can't get refills. Something so easy for Crayola to do that would take their rating from 1 to 5.
Niece loves this product, but she, obviously, ran out of paint and paper very quickly. I don't understand why Crayola doesn't sell refill kits. None of the third party refill kits fit this.
No REFILLS!! What a waste. I wish I'd read reviews first.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
