Roman Life - Rub Down Transfers Forum Scene

The concept of rub down transfers is decades-old. I particularly liked them in the seventies. Now our young son enjoys them as well. I'm quite in to classical history so we often read children's history books about the topic. This sheet about Roman city life may not be the most spectacular scene however it leaves much room for little discussions.I usually cut out the individual transfers while our son does the initial rubbing, which I will take over if it gets tricky. Only somewhat older children may be able (from age 9 up) to do it on their own without breaking the transfers in the process. Then still it may require some grown up planning on where to put each rub down transfer picture given that you may want to keep the perspective in mind - some figures/items are bigger or smaller than others. Alternatively, you can just let them enjoy the rub down transfers on their own.I always find these rubdown transfers a little expensive given that its just a sheet with some stickers that you use in a one of manner, still its an enjoyable experience.

My 6 year old loves these. They work brilliantly on flights to keep him occupied in a small seat. And they work brilliantly whilst in quarantine to keep him occupied! Many thanks!

alright quite small page to use, and the picture quality of the transfers are not brilliant, and too many very small ones hard to see them let alone try and work out where to put them/they go. - this is more like a travel one to take on holidays

Not worth the money - one A5 sheet of transfers and one A4 pictured card. Not worth £4.55

Very good value

a firm favourite with my grandchildren

Great fun item, excellent time enjoyed.
