Scratch art rainbow mini notes work surprisingly well in the car — no mess, no stress

I was skeptical about the Melissa & Doug Scratch Art Rainbow Mini Notes because the “mini” part made me think they’d be too small to hold a kid’s interest. Turns out the small format is actually the feature — each note is quick to complete, which gives a sense of accomplishment, and the rainbow reveal underneath is genuinely cool enough that my kid wanted to do “just one more” about a dozen times. Portable, mess-free, and produces results that look good enough to tape to the fridge. The rare art supply that works equally well at the kitchen table and in the car.
