Yesterday, the UPS man came. At our house, it is always like Christmas when he comes because most of the time, he is bringing TOYS! One of the benefits of being a Discovery Toys Rep! LOL My kids LOVE having a toy mommy!
Anyway, he brought in 9 boxes! In 3 of those boxes were my kids Doodle Desks. What is a Doodle Desk? It is this really sturdy cardboard desk that has pictures for the kids to color and places to add photos....kind of like a scrapbook, only a desk! Here is the description from Discovery Toys:
Looks like a desk, functions like a desk. Yet it’s SO much more! And fun! It’s a unique 3-D canvas upon which kids can draw, color, write …even paste things like a scrapbook! Children can showcase their creative skills and personal life stories with 4 “favorite” themed panels – People, Places, Things & Memories. As they select favorites to feature, they refine memory skills and learn how to make important choices. In the process, they explore and express their inner thoughts and feelings, likes and dislikes, achievements and challenges – critical for emotional and social development. Easy to assemble corrugate desk measures 23 ”h x 27 ”l x 19 ”w. Assembled stool measures 12 ”h x 13”l x 13”w. (58cm x 69cm x 48cm, 30cm x 32cm x 33cm) From 4 years and Up
When I first saw this at our Convention this year, I didn't think my kids would want them....but they did. After they came in yesterday, all 3 of them spent the entire afternoon working on coloring in the pre-drawn designs and talking about what pictures they were going to add to it! So, we now have 3 Doodle Desks! Here are the pictures of my children decorating their personal desks!
My daughter will be 13 next month and she loves it!
This son is 10.
And this one is 7.

Now they will have a very cool way to display their artwork and things that they do this school year!
See....my house really is a PLAY To Learn Home! Have a playful day everyone! |
