Crayola Magnetic Double Easel 

Name: Crayola Magnetic Double Ease

Manufacturer: Crayola

Price: $89.99

Length of Ownership: 8 months

Rating: 4 stars

Ty really likes this double sided easel.  He gets more use out of the marker side than the chalk side, but still uses both pretty regularly.  We use it to leave him notes and pictures for when he wakes up in the morning and he loves it.  This toy really allows him to express his creativity and requires minimal supervision.  I did not give it 5 stars because the writing apparatus was sold seperately, and for the price I felt at least a few markers or a piece of chalk could of came bundled along with the product.  Also, it comes with tiny magnetic alphabet letters, becareful if you have small children around as these pieces can easily be swollowed.

Black & Decker Jr. Power Tool Workshop

Name: Black & Decker Jr. Power Tools Workshop

Manufacturer: Creative Designs

Price: $69.99

Rating: 5 stars

As you can see, Ty likes this toy & his only gripe is the fact that screws from his other tool sets won’t fit in this workbench. I really like this tool bench because it has mulitple activities for your child to enjoy. The power tools make real sounds and move as their real life counterparts. With the provided plastic “wood” pieces your kid can use the workbench to cut wood, drill holes, and piece together a toolbox. This gives them the feeling of actually achieving something and they’ll love to show it off.
