Water-discoloring drawing toy and water-discoloring drawing toy set including the same

Abstract

To provide: a water-discoloring drawing toy which, when a writing utensil or applicator for water adhesion is applied thereto, produces a multicolor image and which eliminates the monotonous production of monochromatic images in a related-art technique and is rich in unexpectedness and changes; and a water-discoloring drawing toy set including this drawing toy. A water-discoloring drawing toy 1 having such a constitution that a drawing made by applying a writing utensil or applicator for water adhesion produces a multicolor image, the drawing toy comprising: a substrate; many non-discoloring images differing in color tone and adjoining each other disposed on the substrate so that at least two color tones per 100 cm2 can be visually recognized in the part having the non-discoloring images; and a porous layer for preventing the non-discoloring images from being seen in the ordinary state, the porous layer being disposed over the non-discoloring images and comprising a binder resin and a low-refractive-index pigment fixed therein in a dispersed state, the porous layer having a difference in transparency between a liquid-impregnated state and an unimpregnated state. Also provided is a water-discoloring drawing toy set which comprises the water-discoloring drawing toy 1 and a writing utensil 3 or applicator for water adhesion.
