Amazon.com Product Description
Inspire your young Picasso with the Melissa and Doug Deluxe Standing Easel. This easel will fuel your child's imaginative side and gives them the freedom to create with an extra-large chalkboard, dry-erase board, and easy-load paper roller. Your budding artist will be inspired by free-form expression and spend hours drawing, painting, sketching, and doodling. It is also an excellent educational item and children love playing school with the chalkboard side. This work station is ideal for kids ages four through 10 and has an adjustable height to accommodate the little ones as they grow.

A Great Alternative to Professional Easels
Just like a professional easel, this work station is generously sized so that children can complete projects both big and small. Its durable wood construction ensures that it won't tip and it folds up easily for convenient storage. The easel also has a sturdy paint tray with cup holders for easy use and clean-up, and another tool tray that holds erasers, chalks, and clips. Four large, colorful clips are included with this easel. Paper rolls can be loaded effortlessly into the holder and a paper cutting edge at the top delivers clean cuts and leaves your artist's work whole. Parents may have to assist removing and loading the paper, as it can be difficult for kids to do on their own. (The paper rolls and paint cups are not included.) A standing easel is essential for any young artist. This large easel has a chalkboard, dry erase board, and paper roller to let the children express themselves with different mediums. It also has an adjustable height that grows with the creator and delivers years of use. The brightly colored tool containers are capacious enough to hold lots of different items and are simple for tiny fingers to utilize. This toy will unleash the little artist inside every child and could spark a lifelong interest in fine art.

What's in the Box
Easel, paint tray, chalk tray, 4 colorful clips, and paper roller.



This large easel has a chalkboard and dry erase board, letting children express themselves with different mediums.

5 out of 5 stars Great purchase   September 5, 2008
Happy Mom (Kansas)
I bought the Melissa and Doug Art Easel for my 18 month old son after falling in love with it at a friend's house. I couldn't believe how much he enjoyed drawing and coloring on it and was just as happy when he showed the same excitement after we bought him one of his own. I bought the accessory pack and have only used the crayons, paper, and chalk due to my son's age and my only dissapointment is with the chalk. It is really chalky and makes a mess on clothes, furniture, etc. I will probably buy new chalk and try it again when he is older. Otherwise, I am completely satisfied with this product and would recommend to anyone who has a child just waiting to explore his/her creative side.


5 out of 5 stars Great product and great price   August 30, 2008
S. Seiwert (Vernon Hills, IL)
This easel is awesome. I got it for my daughter's birthday, and she's been using it ever since. We get so many uses out of it, and I'm using it while I homeschool her too. All in all, this is a must buy and a great addition for any budding artist and curious child.


4 out of 5 stars Well worth the price. Why spend more?   August 27, 2008
D. Horner (Benicia, CA USA)
I purchased this for my daughters (5 & 2 yrs old) for the cold winter months. I let them use washable markers on both sides, and then they clean it off with a wet paper towel, sponge or wipey. It's a great place for them to spend time being creative!


4 out of 5 stars Our 5 year old loves this one   August 19, 2008
Prabhu Chnadrasekhar (Raleigh, NC USA)
Encourages her to be on her own - painting, writing. Motivates her to learn to write better.


5 out of 5 stars Great for 2 year olds   August 18, 2008
Tricia L. Santiago (NYC)
I was concerned when i purchased this product about the height of it, however when it arrived it had adjustable levels which was perfect for my girl. She loves this item, it is one of her favorites and has become a daily routine for her. I am glad that this product will grow with her. It is wonderful to watch her create her masterpieces every day.
