This easel features a blackboard and a whiteboard surface-each permanently fixed to the frame-allowing students to explore drawing with chalk or chalk markers, as well as writing and wiping clean on the dry-erase whiteboard. The integrated metal paperclip on the whiteboard enables children to paint or draw on easel or newsprint paper, transforming the easel into a painting station. It also includes four non-spill paint pots for safe and tidy painting sessions. Constructed from FSC certified pine wood with a lacquered finish, the easel has a modern, clean design that fits beautifully into contemporary learning environments. With a board size of 55cm x 55cm and overall easel dimensions of 55cm (W) x 51cm (D) x 106cm (H), it is ideally sized for young learners. Minimal assembly is required, and a safety warning is included regarding tip-over risk to support responsible classroom use. This durable and engaging easel is part of the Creatistics range-exclusive to MTA-created especially for children and educators to foster creativity, communication, and expression through art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEducational Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSupports creative expression\u003c\/strong\u003e - Offers multiple surfaces for drawing, writing, and painting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuilds fine motor skills\u003c\/strong\u003e - Using chalk, markers, and brushes encourages hand control and coordination.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnhances literacy and numeracy\u003c\/strong\u003e - Whiteboard and blackboard surfaces can be used for practicing letters, numbers, and symbols.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePromotes independence\u003c\/strong\u003e - Children learn to manage their tools and workspace with minimal guidance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Considerations\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4-in-1 design\u003c\/strong\u003e - Includes blackboard, whiteboard, paper clip, and paint pots for varied use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDurable materials\u003c\/strong\u003e - Made from FSC certified pine wood with a smooth lacquered finish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFixed boards\u003c\/strong\u003e - Both board surfaces are permanently attached to the frame for stability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip-over safety\u003c\/strong\u003e - Risk assessment advised; use of restraints may reduce, but not eliminate, risk.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClassroom Ideas\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDaily literacy centre\u003c\/strong\u003e - Use for practicing handwriting, sight words, or spelling games.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRotating art activity\u003c\/strong\u003e - Assign each side of the easel a specific medium (chalk, whiteboard marker, paint).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStudent-led storytelling\u003c\/strong\u003e - Draw characters or scenes on the board to support oral storytelling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMath practice station\u003c\/strong\u003e - Encourage number recognition, shape drawing, and simple equations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEasel Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 55cm (W) x 51cm (D) x 106cm (H)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBoard Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 55cm x 55cm (each board)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSurfaces\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blackboard and whiteboard (permanently fixed)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtras\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 non-spill paint pots and metal paperclip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: FSC certified pine wood with lacquered finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAssembly\u003c\/strong\u003e: Minimal assembly required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSafety Note\u003c\/strong\u003e: Risk assessment for tip-over risk is advised.
