for my twins (2.5 years) I each bought a drawing board. They like to use and much more. They can also be good to use on long road trips or when you're visiting times and needs some work for the children. The drawings are a little rough, but not diminish the pleasure. To remove full you sometimes have to slide down several times and forth slide because otherwise the last frame still shows through slightly. Also I find not bad. Overall, the thing is pretty robust. It may sometimes fall down. You have probably jumping around on it to get it broken. Simple drüberlaufen stand it. The pen hanging on a thread, which I find very good. The forms you need to have more run after or they are quickly gone. Then there is still the pen, the thick paint on one side and thin on the other.
