Best Christmas Toy

The visual arts are a great way to stimulate creativity in a child. When a child is encouraged to draw or paint, they are learning to reinterpret the world around them in new and wonderful ways. Painting and drawing teaches a child to look more carefully at the world they inhabit and to transmute what they are seeing into unique expressions of their inner world. Like all of the visual arts, painting and drawing allow what’s inside the child artist to be examined and contrasted with how the child views the world he or she inhabits.

No product currently on the market is better at stimulating creativity in a child than the Melissa and Doug Deluxe Standing Easel. Like all of the Melissa and Doug line of products the Deluxe Standing Easel is made to exacting standards from all-natural wood products and is designed to last through years of use. The Melissa and Doug Deluxe Standing Easel is great for kids ages four through ten. It is height adjustable, so it grows with your children. Also, the Melissa and Doug Deluxe Standing Easel folds up quickly for easy storage and is sturdy enough that it prevents accidental tipping.

All of these features will inspire any child artist to spend hours and hours doodling, sketching, drawing and painting to their heart’s content.

The Melissa and Doug Deluxe Standing Easel comes with the double sided easel itself, a paint tray, a chalk tray, four colorful cups to hold art supplies and the paper roller for painting. That’s everything your budding artist needs for years of creative fun!
