Now that spring is here, the flowers are in bloom, and most importantly my little girl is old enough to hold a paintbrush, I’m lusting after this art table from Imagine Childhood.
Yeah, yeah, a table has nothing to do with spring, I know. It’s just that we’ve been spending some time outdoors now, picking little flowers, watching bugs wobble over the dirt, and hearing birds happily chirping. It’s inspiring me to teach our daughter about making things.
The Imagine Childhood art table includes two tear-off paper cutters, a handy storage tray in natural wood and a paper roll holder. The surface of the table is actually a white marker board art surface for those times when paper just isn’t called for.
Oh, and for those eco-minded of you out there, the table is made from sustainably harvested northern hardwood maple. Non toxic finish. High quality paper roll is 16.5″ wide and 100′ long. That’s a lot of paper.
We have this chalkboard (stickers, actually that make a chalkboard) that Sophie just loves to scribble on then wipe away. I figure that, with unlimited paper at her disposal, she could really delve into her inner artist.
Plus, since the roll of paper is right there, I won’t have to be constantly handing her new sheets of paper or making sure that her pen stays on the paper. With this table, it looks like the entire surface is covered with paper.
Anyway, with Spring in full bloom, what better time to break out of one’s old shell and start something new?
