My 6 year old daughter played with the My Password Journal and it wasn't a hit. She is a little young for this product since she is just learning to spell and getting the product to open took many tries leaving her frustrated. It is better suited for an older child and would maybe have been a hit with my son if it were not for the color and design of the journal lending itself to only a female user.
Pros: High quality, Durable, gives prompt to inspire writing, the paper inside could be larger, protects against pesky little brothers, invisible ink and black light make writing secret
Cons: paper inside could be lined
I love this journal for my daughter. It offers 30 thought-inspiring prompts and the capacity to create 10 personal ones of your own. These help her on the days when she feels like her day was anything but extraordinary.
The design is very girly with pink and the large white flower design on the front. My daughter took an immediate interest in it.
The invisible ink pen and black light make this a very secret journal. My daughter loves writing with the pen and her brother doesn't know about the black light so it's even more secret.
And of course with a little brother, one must also be aware that there are security breeches. This journal is on lock down with the customized intruder alert to ward off anyone who tries to open the journal. Should Dear Brother attempt to mimic the password, the journal records it so you can play it back later and catch him in action (and have proof for Mom!).
This is such a fun way to inspire children to journal. I wish the paper inside were lined and that part of it a little larger to enable more flow.
My password journal arrived in a easy to open package. The journal has easy verbal instructions, so setup was a breeze. It has an intruder feature that allows you to record a custom message. The invisible ink pen is a very cool feature, a message can be written and revealed with the built in black light in the journal. I highly recommend this product.
This electronic diary is great, and chock full of cool and fun features. The diary itself is really just a pad of paper, but the case that surrounds it makes keeping a journal lots of fun. It has a fun audio password feature that remembers the user's voice but won't recognize an intruder's voice. Not only will it not unlock for the intruder, but it records their attempt to open the journal and plays it back, so your girl can find out who's been trying to access her secrets. There is also a fun UV ink marker which can be viewed with the UV light that is built into the cover. Audio diary suggestions give ideas for your girl to write about.
