    These are the perfect shape for little hands. Our 1 year old can grip them easily and paint many masterpieces. Very easy for us to clean to and dry nicely.

    Got this for Christmas for our 3 y 9 months girl and she loves drawing on the blackboard, and colouring painting on roll of paper – very good and functional toy

    This was a big success with my 3year old granddaughter at Christmas, however I have given 4 stars due to the fact that the holes were in the wrong place when attaching the black/white boards to the frame., this was mentioned by other people in the reviews, apart from that it is sturdy and the best part it does fold down for storage when she is not with us.

    My little one (2 year old) loves these brushes, when she is not painting with them she is using them to bang them onto other toys (not fun for mum but surely fun for her). The only down side I see is that they are a bit larger than what I expected but still great for arts and crafts. I will say these are chunky brushes with a decent amount of bristles so if you fancy a slim brush, theese might not be for you.

    Nice brushes for toddlers

    Shame I had to buy 4 packs together for 1 toddler as they are perfect brushes. Great size, easy to use, easy to wash, good value for money per pack just not if you have to buy 4 packs together in order to get the brushes.

    Love everything about this blackboard,whiteboard, paint board, very sturdy, easy to assemble. My Granddaughter has hours of fun with hers. Very educational, as you can teach them to write, draw and paint with it. So much easier than doing it on paper and asking them to copy it. I really recommend this.

    Bought four years ago and still in daily use by succeeding children. Well designed, sturdy, and adjustable. It wasn’t the cheapest but I still consider it very good value for money.

    Well worth the money. A little more expensive expensive some others but qell worth it. Very sturdy and the changeable height on there’s is great for a growing child. Highly recommended!

    Really good quality and the kids love it. It’s a good size for both my 2 year old and 4 year old.
    Chalkboard has a nice smooth surface that writes on well and wipes off fairly easily. The paper roll is really handy
    Pretty easy to build, we never have it folded away, so I couldn’t comme

    This was a Christmas present for our tall 3yr old daughter. I had to do an amazon chat as one of the colourful screw heads didn’t have any grip so one of the shelves could not attach. Annoyingly we were told a new one couldn’t be sent out so either had to dismantle the whole thing and return or have a 10% refund. My husband could not face taking apart again after much stress putting together and a v excited daughter! So we took the discount and he found a screw and bolt to put on instead. Not quite the same but at least she can use it. It’s a bit flimsy and we haven’t yet been brave enough to fold it! Put at tallest height so haven’t attempted the height adjuster either. A roll of Ikea paper fitted fine. Only other gripe is that the white board chips easily.
    Saying all that, my daughter loves it and has used it lots during homeschooling. Just glad we got it on a Black Friday deal, not worth the full price.

    These paint brushes are brilliant.
    My 3 year old had an easy time holding them and painting.
    There very easy to clean (I used washable paint)
    The paint also didn’t stain the bristles which is nice!
    Will definitely repurchase when I need to

    – Big and chunky, easy for 2 year old to hold.
    – Wash and clean well.
    – Different coloured handles (red, blue, yellow, green) which match with the coloured pots in our easel; good for colour identification and matching.
    – Only negative, the handles are plastic which I would have preferred to be wood as M&D product.

    My 3 year old son loves his Easel, I like the bright colours and functionality its very user friendly and I am happy to recommend it.
    I would have given it five stars sadly the easel took a long time to arrive but given issues with the current corona pandemic I am sure that’s not the norm. The only minor limitation we found is that the surfaces don’t take magnetic numbers and letters. otherwise really well thought out fun attractive and functional

    Great painting tool for my toddler. He’s 18 months so uses a hold hand grasp and these brushes really support his development.

    Well made, compact and good for entertainment. But I felt I had to buy extra letter magnets (there’s not much we can spell with one alphabet) and extra pens (no kids want to draw only in blue).

    We got this for something to do during lockdown. Money well spent 2 usually loud and fighting siblings kept quiet for hours. Definitley reccomend !!

    Three year old loves it. Painting, drawing and chalk all available. It’s adjustable so will last. It could also be folded away but better to leave it up if you have the space. He also hangs his coat on it when he comes in from the garden.

    Bought this for my little boy, he loves it! Sits nicely on the table and is plenty sturdy for all his artistic ventures. The fact it is multi functional is also great as you can swap the media easily from white board to chalk to paper and all the little magnetic letters and numbers that come with it make a really good addition and help with learning too.

    There’s something very sweet about this easel, I’m very excited about my children starting to use it, even though my 18 month old would rather climb it. The small negatives I’ve noticed are: the edge of the whiteboard could be smoother and the whiteboard markers I’ve got have stained it (need to try dettol wipes to get the stains out). The legs of the easel have a few rough edges. Other than that, this easel is easy to assemble, easy to fold and has it all (except a magnetic board but I’ll get it separately and it’s probably even better to separate magnetic letters from the art easel). I got it for a reduced price from Amazon warehouse and only noticed the packet with the bolts had been slightly opened, but everything was as new. I hope it will be sturdy enough to last for a few years of fun!

    My 18 month old granddaughter loves the ease with which she can color on the paper roll on the easel. Clearly she will need to be supervised when using to ensure she does not use the marker, chalk, crayons on furniture/walls. We ordered separately washable crayons and markers to use with the easel, which helps. While the set implies it comes with two erasers – one for the whiteboard and one for the chalkboard, only one eraser came with the set.

    I had expected these to be wooden but they are plastic. This does make them nice and light for small hands though. Lasting well.

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersLoved this toy and educational resource so much – bought twice as gifts for daughter and niece. They love it. It’s great value for money magnets, chalk, paper and a marker included. I had to order other whiteboard markers separate- because this only comes with one – I’m not deducting any stars simply because it’s great value for money as it comes with magnets, chalks and paper. It’s a wonderful toy and great Table Top design stores away easily. Only one piece of advice for young children who are learning to use pencils and pens – just put some tape over the wooden trim at the top – just so it doesn’t get marked – so you can keep it looking lovely – it’s such a beautiful design you will want to keep it and use for many years!

    Absolutely amazing toy and educational resource - Melissa and Doug products are great.

    I have bought two of these for my grandchildren and they love them ( they are both 2 years). They have so many activities to choose from, that I’m sure it will keep even the most active toddler stationary for a while! I would highly recommend it.

    Great quality would recommend adjustable heights as shown on photo you can raise the boards so will grow with your child…don’t order the paper if you are buying the Melissa and Doug boxed accessories of paints etc one comes in the accessory box

    My granddaughter was bought this for Christmas and immediately started using the chalkboard to draw. It doesn’t fold up, unfortunately, but is very sturdy and you can store a paper roll in it. It will fit a roll of lining paper but only for storage, it does not fit through the openings. Pleased with it and it was easy to construct.

    its very good decent size chaulboard is good but whiteboard isn’t so good to be honest leaves marks we’ve tried several markers and only one or two are ok to use on this one. apart from whiteboard everything else is alright a little expensive though should be I’d say about 40-45.

    Loved the product… the only downfall (which is why I gave it a four star) is that the wood is not waterproof so when my daughter used the pens on the whiteboard she got it on the wood but. If it was waterproof you could easily wipe it off as it’s dry wipe marker. So that’s a bit annoying.
