It’s a lap desk, it’s an easel, it’s a carryall. It’s Crayola’s new Color Wonder Table Top Easel for tots, which is all three of the above in one compact 13-inch by 10-inch package. Just unlatch and open the top of the lap desk and it forms a pyramid with the inside finger-paint tray. Did we mention the desk/easel comes with six pots of finger-paints? And here’s the neatest part: The finger-paints — in red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple — only show up in color on special Color Wonder treated paper (a pad of the paper is included), so spills won’t make a mess on any other surface. The flat drawing surface has two stay-put clips to hold paper in place, and there’s storage space for your artist’s creations.
Crayola Color Wonder Table Top Easel, $19.99 (additional pad, $5.49), or 866-896-5445
