Description
This dinosaur magic slate brings back a much-loved way to draw. Press the stylus onto the grey window to make a line, then pull the side tab and the picture vanishes, ready for the next one. A parade of dinosaurs runs all the way round the mint green border in reds, blues, yellows and greens. A big red one steps in at the bottom corner as if it has just walked into the frame. The drawing window is 15cm long and 9.3cm wide, a good space for a scribbled volcano, a row of footprints or a game of noughts and crosses.
Every picture can be erased in a moment, so it is a toy that gets used again and again, with no paper to tidy away afterwards. We like it for quiet time at the kitchen table, a spare few minutes before bed or as something to keep busy hands occupied on a long car journey. At 0.024KG it is very light, so it tucks easily into a bag or a backpack. Children can practise letters, draw their favourite dinosaur or pass the stylus back and forth to play simple games together.
The slate comes with a plastic stylus in bright red, which sits at the side of the slate by the green tab so the two stay together. The back carries the words Dinosaur Magic Slate in bold orange lettering above three more dinosaurs, so it looks just as bright from either side. To keep it looking its best, dust the printed frame with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from water. It makes a fun little gift that will be picked up again long after the wrapping paper has gone.
