Beka Adjustable Double-Sided Easel Combo #3, Magnetic and Chalkboard Surfaces, Top Paper Holder, Natural Wood Trays Review

Everything you would want to write & draw is included (NOT erasers, paint or brush). I found a dry marker eraser easily but the chalk eraser was hiding at the third Office Depot that I went to. My 5yr old grandson loves the stick figures (of him) that I draw and leave for him to find. Soon he'll have the confidence of steady hands (that he's developing with video games) and he'll be tracing his ideas for me. This is a great investment product for young minds. Spend a little more now, and it lasts for a childhood of creative memories.

Melissa and Doug Deluxe Standing Easel & Companion Supply Set Bundle Review

Melissa and Doug Deluxe Standing Easel and Companion Supply Set Bundle
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have purchased many Melissa & Doug products for my grandchildren. This year, I ordered 2 of these easels: one shipped directly to an out-of-state granddaughter; the second for another granddaughter who would be at my house Christmas Day.
Grandpa and I began assembling the big "Santa-type" gifts Christmas Eve at 6:00 pm. We had completed 2 race track-train sets and table and chairs when Grandpa opened the easel box. We found no "hardware" and no clips in the box-this meant there would be "no assembly" tonight. Five grandchildren were expected Christmas morning and ALL five were to have a big gift under the tree!
I placed a call to the number at Melissa & Doug and left a message about the incomplete merchandise and my disappointment. Now I needed to find a store open to purchase a different "big" present for my granddaughter.
Granted, I should not have waited until the 11th hour to open and assemble. My past purchase history with Melissa & Doug have been flawless: their merchadise superior. I never expected anything less.
Christmas morning things were fine. "Santa" left a note on the unassembled box that an elf left the nuts and bolts and they would be mailed in 2 weeks. This was satisfactory to her.
Telephone communication began, and on Thursday January 10th, the package arrived. I opened it immediately and ALL the bolts, washers and screws were accounted for but not the "4 colorful clips". I called the Melissa & Doug store. I was not happy that the toy was still incomplete. The representative stated that the clips would be sent out. I remarked that my granddaughter would have to wait another 2 weeks for this Christmas gift and would I be compensated (I was thinking they could at least send an extra roll of paper for our trouble). I was told that "oh she can use it without the clips" and that it wasn't the fault of Melissa & Doug, but the vendor. She became very rude when I stated that the fault is with whomever forgot to pack the box with ALL parts.
This was the wrong attitude to take with a customer. I bought a new, deluxe set (not second-hand or as is) and I paid retail (not reduced, discount or clearance price). I paid, and I expect to get what I paid for when I receive the merchandise -not piece by piece, week by week. THIS WAS AN INCONVENIENCE-having to run around to buy a replacement gift on Christmas Eve, to make an excuse as to why the easel was not ready for her to take home, multiple phone calls had to be made and now I was told I had to wait again!
One mistake, I can overlook...but the second mistake accompanied with rudeness from the Melissa & Doug representative means it will be a cold day at the equator before I buy a product from this company again.

Alex Art Box (113) Review

I bought this for my 5 year old daughter and we tried to take very good care of it. Within a few days of careful use, one of the latches bent, a hinge broke off and a piece of the edge came unglued. It is a great idea, but needs better construction. On a positive note, my daughter loved it and would have spent hours drawing and creating with the tools inside if I let her. However, I had to take the box away so further damage does not occur before I can fix it. The drawers work fine. The problem is with the two doors on top that flip out. Note about drawers; Little plastic door knobs pop out. Need to be glued in.

Color Magnetic Drawing Board Review

Color Magnetic Drawing Board
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I picked these up for travel toys for my 2 & 4 year old at a local toy store. I'll stash the circle and square pieces until we arrive at our destination so there will be no tantrums over dropped pieces no one can reach in the car. The shapes do seem to take a big of effort to wiggle out of their home locations. I don't think the sense of quality is as high as the brand name Magna Doodle.
The colors are nice, not as vivid as the ones on the outside of the box depicts. There are four colors in blocked regions (not four primary colors as the listing says as red, blue, and yellow are the primary colors and green is a secondary color). I noticed in having two of them that each one has the colors in different quadrants so they are not identical, not that that should matter; it's just an observation.
The "pen" glides smoothly over the surface. I have two and both had a solvent smell to them coming out of the box. Not sure what that's about. Haven't found a way to contact Toysmith yet about that. I'll be sure to have my kids wash their hands after playing with them when we arrive somewhere. Not sure about durability yet as they haven't been road tested. If it wasn't for the solvent issue I'd give it 4 stars. Can't give it 5 without seeing it's durability.
This is also a fun tool for writing and spelling practice at home, the color aspect again adding interest, especially for visual learners.

Melissa & Doug Dry-Erase Marker Set (4 pc) Review

I bought this set for my 4-year-old niece to go with a small marker board/chalk board. I have previously purchased many Melissa and Doug products and am always pleased with the quality of the product. This time was no different.
The marker set is appropriate for a child old enough not to eat the cap. I say this because some 4-year-olds still do this.
The markers work fine on the marker board, as expected, and have vibrant colors. The markers are also easily erasable with a marker board eraser, and wash out of clothing without a problem.
I would recommend this set, but older children may want more colors than just the four.

Scratch-Art Paper Multicolor Review

Scratch-Art Paper Multicolor
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Scratchpaper is made by topping a layer of color with a layer of black ink, that can then be scratched off to reveal the color underneath. Young children can use a safe wooden pointer to scrape away, and be amazed by what they find underneath. Older and more serious young artists will benefit from the tools that are sold separately, which will introduce them to the tools of pen and ink, and allow them to create real works of art using different nibs for different effects. Either way, they're hours of fun.

A wonderful variation of this popular and classic product. A unique six color pattern is printed below the top black coating which appears as exciting multi-color lines when the top coat is scratched away with a stick. Pack contains 12 sheets that are 8 1/2 in. x 11 in. and a wooden scratch stick.
