Great Product

from AL
These can be used with so many projects that require paint, but unlike using paint and brushes they require almost no clean up.

Still too much mess...
By Ms. Heather
from Utah
I bought these after reading all the positive reviews & was surprised. It took one of my parents nearly half an hour to fill the bottles with the liquid watercolors, and about 2 minutes for the kids to empty them. The bottles are extremely easy to squeeze and the paint comes out way too fast. Combined with the fact that the liquid watercolors aren't nearly as washable as they say they are, it meant a huge mess. After talking to other teachers I tried watered down tempera paint and that works much better, but it's still not worth the effort of filling them. They may be great for older kids & school agers who understand how to use them without squeezing, but for my toddlers & preschoolers I'll stick to the less expensive squeeze bottles.

somewhat disappointing
By artist
from Peterborough, NH
I use these bottles filled with acrylic paint, water and glaze for journal pages. (Looking for the ease of adding color with a quick sponge applicator.) The concept of the bottle is great, but I was very disappointed at how difficult the tips are to put on and take off of the bottles. Will be a real mess when the tip is paint covered and I need to re-fill. I was anticipating a screw on tip assemblage. Still, these are the only ones I can find out in the market. Better than nothing.

Make Your Own Dot Paints
By shalom365
from Los Altos Hills, CA
These are the most affordable make your own dot paints. Better than buying dot paints! Buy these empty bottles, fill with paint, use, re-use, wash, and fill again. Kids love it and don't know the difference.

Good product
By homeschoolmom
If you squeeze them or push down too hard, they do tend to leak a bit (with the liquid watercolors; we haven't yet tried them with other paints), but I have a three year old and a five year old and they did fine, without much mess. It's great to have bingo bottles that you can refill and choose different colors. Very economical and versatile.

Kids love them!
By Mkay
Kids love using markers but I rarely use them because they dry up and the colors become dull too fast not to mention younger kids have trouble getting the lids on and off. Bingo dabbers are a fun way for kids to draw or dab and the colors stay vibrant--the kids in my care love them! I use colorations watercolors in mine so it washes off with ease.

Best use of my money
By MrsM

children love to make dots. Now they can to their hearts content and I don't have to worry about them jamming or breaking the points of markers.

Great product
By died4u
from Grand Prairie, TX
I actually can't say b/c I haven't gotten to use them yet but the delivery time was fast. The bingo refill bottles look just fine. I don't see why if you needed it, the bottles wouldn't suit the purpose. I would recommend ordering from this supply place.
Budget Helper!
By TeacherSam
from Shepherd
I used these with liquid water colors and coffee filters. As long as the children didn't squeeze the bottles, the paint came out just fine!

One of my favorite things
By LadyYumYum
from Roseville, CA
I keep these on hand filled with tempera paint. They keep the mess to a minimum and clean up is a breeze! The tip is removeable for refilling, but doesen't pop out if squeezed to hard by a student. Buy an extra set of replacement tips and you'll be set for awhile.

pretty good, a little watery
By jakermo
This might be better for using with large classes.

good option
By ashson
This is a much more cost effective way to go, instead of bingo daubers, especially if you have alot of paint on hand. We used regular paint, not water color, and they worked GREAT! However, the tops are really hard to get in and we're concerned that they won't come back out any easier for refilling.

Good substitue for expensive bingo daubbers
By kate
from Palo Alto, CA
I could only get these to work with paint. When I tried to use liquid watercolors the watercolors just dripped out and made a mess.You can paint with lines or dots and the paint dries quickly becuase it is spread thin.They work great with paint. I even bought the replacement tips so they will last for a long time!
