I teach a painting class at a Treatment Mall for mentally ill adults (an inpatient facility). We had great fun playing with the fish and trying different papers. It was fun to see how each person chose their colors and style and then how they came out. We decided less is better in terms of getting the best print from the rubber fish. The fish are in our supply cabinet and will be available to anyone wanting a play day instead of a day of intently working on a painting. Thanks for a wonderful product!

I use the fish models in a Kit for teaching children how to do Gyotaku. I like the models because they don't smell like dead fish and don't rot in the kits. I do not have to go out and catch fish every time I want to teach Gyotaku. The smaller fish are more difficult to apply ink than the larger models. I realize that fresh caught fish would make better teaching examples, but I do not have that luxury.

The fish look great. I was expecting them to be a little bigger, but they work just fine. I have my students roll ink onto them and then press the paper on the fish to make a wonderful fish print. They make great artwork, book covers, or additions to reports. I think they would work for an on fossils as well.

The fish look great. However, I was a little surprised at how small they were. I made a fish print previously that was larger, so I expected larger fish from this order.

The starfish and scallop worked really well -- I was printing on tee shirts. The fish was more complicated, but beautiful. Definitely a fun project, with great results.

I am a teacher and really wanted to show my kids "parts of a fish" and "parts of a turtle." They are very specific to detail and can be painted with tempera paints... to make lovely prints.

Just last week I received my product and Thursday of the same week I used the rubber fish in an Early Childhood Art class for 4 and 5 year olds. We talked about fish generalities and then when we finished our fish printing they could see the fins, gills, tail, eye, etc that we had talked about before we started!!! The experience was wonderful and the produced aretwork was beautiful!!!
