There is NO way I would get my kids one of thoes. They have NO educational value what so ever. Who ever gets it for there kids in my opnion is crazy. I am sorry but that is my opnion.

first of all i believe all myLoters should respect everyones opinion... there could be some educational value in it...a member stated that her son is into art...this could help develop those interests in a good way...i wouldn't call her/him crazy for wanting their child to pursue their talents and interests... but it is your opinion and i hope we all respect it...

I don't know if I would buy it but I know for sure that if my son knew this was on the market he would keep begging for it.

I would get one for my husband because he loves stuff like that-I already have tattoos, but he does really fancy and intricate henna designs for me for special occasions (or just because!), or designs with glue-on body crystals, and I think the a temporary tattoo machine would be awesome for him! He already has his neice and some of her friends asking him to "do them up" for their prom this year. (I do make-up as well-we could start out own business :)

I hadn't heard of it before now, but I don't see the harm in it, my kids like to wear temporary tattoos and I let them.

I haven't seen this toy. I don't have a child, but I seem to remember getting temporary tattoos all the time when I was a kid. They were fun. I was pretty educated by my parents as to what the difference between them and real tattoos were and that real tattoos are permanent and can't be washed off. Also, I was warned about the health risks. So, I don't think they had anything to worry about if they were to get me this toy. I think for kids between 9 and 13, this would be fun as long as their parents talk to them about the difference between these and real tattoos.

I have seen that kind of thing. My son is really into ll sorts of art so I might buy one for him but I don't like the look of tattos, real or fake so that would put me off.

this could be a great toy for him...it could spark more interest in art...i believe it comes with templates and that could help develop his creative side...let us know if you get him one and if he likes it...have a great day...

A tatoo machine... that sounds really cool! How does it work? do you get to make your own tatoos? If I did have a child I would definately buy one for them! or for myself as I am to chicken to get a real tatoo! :P

Depends on how old your child is. It sounds kinda cool though. As long as he is in the right age group

I havent bought one and I wouldnt buy a child one but my sister did buy my daughter one. The one she got was broke so it had to be sent back and the manufacturer sent another one. My daughter loved it. All the kids who have played with it have loved it. Its probably no worse then letting your kids wear temporary tattoos.
