Turn bath time or art time into a magical science show. These floating marker pens let kids draw on a smooth whiteboard or ceramic surface, then watch their artwork lift off and float on water. It is a simple, screen-free activity that teaches cause and effect while sparking creativity.

Kids love the moment their drawing detaches and drifts across the water. Parents love that it uses safe, water-based ink and cleans up in seconds. Each set includes multiple vibrant colors, a whiteboard pen holder, and a small floating tray. No batteries, no mess, just pure hands-on fun for ages 3 and up.

The science behind the magic is simple. The special ink dries quickly on the board. When you gently lower the board into water, the dried ink film lifts off and floats. This process introduces basic concepts of density and surface tension in a way young children can see and understand.

Key Features and Benefits

- Water-based ink that floats on water that creates a magical, mess-free art experience kids can repeat over and over

  • ABS plastic pen bodies with smooth, kid-friendly grip that makes them easy for small hands to hold and control
  • Vibrant color set including red, blue, green, yellow, and purple that encourages color recognition and creative expression
  • No batteries or electricity required that gives children a safe, low-tech alternative to digital entertainment
  • Easy clean-up with just water and a cloth that saves parents time and keeps the play area tidy
  • Compact, portable design that fits easily into a diaper bag or travel case for on-the-go fun at restaurants or on trips

Who Is This For

- Parents looking for a mess-free, screen-free activity that combines art and science for children ages 3 to 12

  • Teachers and homeschool educators who want a hands-on demonstration of density and surface tension for classroom science lessons
  • Grandparents and gift-givers searching for a unique, educational toy that encourages creativity and independent play
  • Families who enjoy bath-time activities that keep children engaged while making cleanup simple and fast

Usage Scenario

Emma, a mother of a four-year-old, struggled to keep her son engaged during bath time without a tablet. She bought this floating marker set on a recommendation. The first night, her son drew a simple fish on the whiteboard, dipped it in the water, and gasped as the fish floated away. Now he asks for bath time every night, drawing new creatures and telling stories about them as they drift across the water. Emma loves that there is no paint to clean and no batteries to replace.

Micro Comparison

Unlike regular dry-erase markers that smear and leave residue, these floating markers use a specially formulated water-based ink that lifts off cleanly as a film. Standard bath crayons wash away immediately and cannot create floating shapes. This set gives kids the thrill of seeing their artwork come to life on water, something no other bath toy offers.

Questions and Answers

Question: How does the floating effect work?

Answer: Draw on the included whiteboard or any smooth non-porous surface. Wait 10-15 seconds for the ink to dry, then slowly lower the board into water. The dried ink film lifts off and floats on the surface.

Question: Is the ink safe if my child puts the pen in their mouth?

Answer: The ink is water-based and non-toxic, but it is not meant to be ingested. Supervise young children and wash hands after use. If ink gets in the mouth, rinse with water.

Question: Can I use regular dry-erase markers instead of the included pens?

Answer: No, only the included floating markers work for this effect. Regular dry-erase markers contain solvents that prevent the ink film from lifting off cleanly.

Question: How do I clean the whiteboard after use?

Answer: Wipe the board with a damp cloth or rinse it under running water. The ink washes off easily without scrubbing. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface.

Question: What surfaces can I draw on to make the floating effect work?

Answer: The effect works best on the included whiteboard, ceramic tiles, glass, or any smooth, non-porous surface. It will not work on paper, fabric, or textured plastic.

It works well, but it’s expensive and greasy
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
As far as sun protection goes, this has worked perfectly for my family. Spray it on, blend it in, good to go. No sunburn. There are a few annoying things about it though. The price is incredibly high, imo. It is unscented, which is rare for sunscreen, but it smells like alcohol when wet. Also, this stuff is oily. It makes everything it touches greasy looking (hair, clothes, hands…) I like this overall for an alternative to thick mineral sunscreens. It’s pretty convenient.

Great for sensitive skin
Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have extremely sensitive skin and recently found out my skin hates the sun due to my autoimmune issues. This sunscreen doesn't break my skin out, keeps me from getting sunburnt and doesn't have a bunch of fragrance. This travel size has been perfect for throwing in my bag for a day at the baseball park or beach. This is a non greasy and no whitecast spray that has a high spf too. I highly recommend it.

Apply BEFORE leaving the house!
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have fair (freckle don’t tan, burn easily then peel and back to white) and sensitive skin. So does my son. I live on the coast, in a southern state and vacation in the Caribbean often. After too many years of getting burned, I finally found Coola a couple years ago. It has revolutionized my time in the sun. Here’s the thing tho. If you don’t apply it properly, it’s not gonna work. If you’re looking for something to put on AT the pool or beach, go for something else (with zinc oxide preferably). If you’re willing to take 5 mins before you go to do it, you’ll be very happy. Kids especially are hard enough to get covered before they see water anyway! Here’s some tips: Spray everyone OUTSIDE (even the unscented can overwhelm inside, and you really don’t need to be breathing in ANY sunscreen) DO NOT USE ON FACE. It will burn your eyes when you sweat/swim. Choose a cream or face stick. Spray until skin is wet. You’re not looking for a light misting, you’re going for full coverage. The can can sound like it’s spraying, but if you don’t see the product on the skin, you’re gonna get burned. Give it 5 mins to dry before putting on shirts/cover ups. Reapply between 2 & 3 hours of water exposure. (We usually dry off, respray, then have a snack or lunch) Give it 15 - 20 mins to soak in before you hit the water again. I’ve found a 6oz can will usually take care of two adults and a child for the day (initial and resprays). It’s a tad expensive, so we use Coola on days we plan to be out for more than a couple hours, or every day in the Caribbean, since the sun is SO intense. The 2oz is ‘touch up’ sized. It may take care of a child’s initial spray, but I’ve found it more suited for adding additional spray to areas that feel a bit crispy, rather than using it on a single application.

Toxic ingredients
Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
There are endocrine disruptors in here that are harmful to your health. I nearly got to the point of being disabled from endocrine issues. Has ingredients that ruin fertility, raise risk of cancer, and ruin your endocrine system. I hope these brands can take these ingredients out and begin to care about consumers health.
