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.

4 out of 5 stars Our 5 year old loves this one   August 19, 2008
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
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.


5 out of 5 stars Awesome Easel   August 7, 2008
A must buy for the 3 year olds

First, let me say that we got this for Christmas for our 2.5 year old boy. Our boy is very active and can be aggressive at times. This easel is made very sturdy and looks attractive as well.
I would strongly recommend this to anyone looking for an easel. Friends of ours have the crayola easel and have found it to be weaker than ours. A plus is that this easel is adjustable, meaning as your kids grow so does the easel's height. And I like that the paper is hidden in the middle of the A frame, it keeps it out of the way.

The chalk board is not a problem. I simply followed the directions that come in the box and "seasoned" our board. By coloring/rubbing chalk all over it and wipping it off.

I can't believe someone went the length of using a power sander on this easel... Really? I guess I'm skeptical and not sure why? Yes, that would certainly ruin this chalk board.

Melissa and Doug Deluxe Standing Easel is great 1 Help save my kid from drawing on the walls in the apartment! Use as a creative tool to developed ideas and putting it on paper ! Easy setup and with the roll of paper on the go.


5 out of 5 stars Great Bargain!   July 16, 2008
Great bargain. I was concerned with the chalk board because some reviews mentioned it needed to be sanded. I did not find that problem at all. My 4 year old son loves the dry erase board and practicing writing his name over and over. Soon enough, my 9 month old girl will be practicing her name as well. Great investment, gift and product overall.
