Real talk
The portable art set that actually goes places
Buying for a child who draws everywhere? The Animal Travel Doodle Book is built for exactly that. 6 reusable pages, 8 vibrant pens, 2 wipes, and a compact design that fits a backpack or car seat. Wipe it clean and they're ready to fill the pages again, no new pads to buy, no mess to clean up at home.
Parents and grandparents tell us this one keeps kids occupied for hours without a screen. You get peace and quiet. They get to practise pen control, draw what they see, and create stories on the move.

While they play
What it quietly teaches
Looks like play. Works like a lesson.
Pen control
Doodling on the same pages over and over, they naturally improve how they hold and guide the pen. Fine motor skills build without pressure.
Colour mixing
8 pens invite them to layer colours, learn which shades blend together, and experiment without fear of ruining the page.
Imaginative play
Animal artwork sparks storytelling. They draw characters, invent adventures, and build narrative skills with every session.
Reuse and care
Cleaning the pages themselves teaches resource awareness and the cycle of create, clear, create again. No waste, no guilt.

Why real play matters
Real brain growth comes from real play.

No hunting for markers. Colours are bold, dry quickly, and sit in the elastic band so they never get lost in the car.
Times per page
Microfibre wipes clear every page cleanly. No streaks, no ghosting. Ready to draw again in seconds.

Questions & answers
Questions parents ask
Is this the right doodle book for their age?
Buying for a 5th or 6th birthday? This is the one. Ages 3 to 4 love colouring the animals; 5 to 7 draw and create stories. One set plays across the whole range. If you're unsure, give us a shout and we'll match it to the child.
How many times can you really wipe the pages clean?
Hundreds. The pages are made from thick card with a wipeable surface. Customers tell us they've wiped individual pages over 100 times without wear. The wipes are included and reusable, so there's no running out of cleaning supplies.
Will it arrive in time for a birthday?
Order by 2pm and it arrives within 2-3 business days. Panic-buying for a Saturday party? Choose Friday delivery. And it comes wrapped in our branded packaging, so no rewrapping needed. As Leigh Hemmings told us: 'arrived next day, saved Christmas'.
Why does it cost more than the plastic version?
Solid card, hand-finished, built to last years not weeks. You're not buying a single-use pad. A family passes this from 3-year-old to 7-year-old, then to a cousin. Over 4 years of use, that's pennies per game. Worth every penny full price, as one parent said.
How much does it cost?
The Animal Travel Art Set - Doodle Book is £13.40 today (down from £18.99). Klarna is available at checkout if you prefer to spread the cost.
What's your returns policy?
30 days, full refund, no conditions. Return it for any reason and we refund in full. We've been standing behind what we make since 1795.

Our story
Making toys worth keeping since 1795.
Jaques of London was founded in 1795. We invented croquet, table tennis, and the Staunton chess set. For 230 years, we've been making things that pull children away from passive entertainment and into active, curious, hands-on play.
Jaques makes this doodle book for the parent who knows that travel time is the hardest quiet time to fill. No screen, no mess, no guilt. We've been making toys since 1795 because we believe play teaches. This set teaches pen control, colour mixing, and imagination while it keeps the car silent and the hands busy. Built solid, designed for reuse, meant to pass down.
Toys and games that leave something behind: a skill, a memory, a piece of play that gets passed on.
Joe, Jaques of London
