My Personal Masterpiece


My girlfriend Suzanne has a blank canvas hung on her playroom wall, I call it "the masterpiece". Her daughter will grab a crayon and swipe away at it, each time adding a new color. When the Bugaboo Girl comes over to play, she immediately goes to the canvas, grabbing a crayon and adding to "the masterpiece", talking away, like she is describing what she sees. To encourage her to draw more, I recently gave her the new Doodlebagz™ which as not only crayons and a pad but also chalk and chalkboard. What a wonderful new creative tool!
The Doodlebagz™ is a compact carrying case for the artist on the go. It has compartments for both the crayons and the chalk and zips up conveniently with a handle to carry. I was amazed with what the bag came with.

*Crayola Doodlebagz™
*10 Crayola washable crayons
*5 pieces of Crayola chalk
*Writing pad
*Chalkboard
*chalkboard eraser

The designs available are very cool such as the pick camouflage or the colorful stripping mirroring the rainbow of Crayola crayon colors. You can even personalize the front of the bag with the child's name!

They make crayon keepers, which is a good thing since the crayon boxes always break on one side.
