Mizz Mac's tips for buying art easels for children's art
Mizz Mac is back with a few tips for parents or grandparents
about buying art easels for children. The first easel we bought for our
grandchildren was plastic with a white marker board on one wide and dry chalk
board on the other. The drawing surfaces were quite small and tray underneath
wasn't designed to hold much. There was only a plastic clip to hold one sheet
of paper. This easel was fine when my granddaughter took up painting but when
my grandson decided it was time for him to start drawing, they couldn't draw on one side and paint on the other without getting frustrated. We decided to buy another easel.
We bought two instead. The easels are taller and have adjustable height. One
side has a dry erase white board and the other side is dry chalk board. The
surfaces are larger and the easels are angled a bit with a nice tray to hold
art supplies. The dry erase surfaces are erasable with paper towels. Crayola
has dry erase markers and dry erase crayons and large crayon shaped colored
chalk on the market. I personally saw these products at Kmart.
By the way, having two easels for two artists is working out
great! They are both drawing quite well and are not getting frustrated with each other.
Here is a picture of my grandson’s drawing:
