Research has shown that offering creative outlets to children at a young age leads to increased development for your child.

With this in mind, the next toy that TheToyZone.com is going to look at is the Little Tikes Double Easel.

The first time we purchased this easel was for Charlie who was then two years old. We got it for $69 but I think you can get it for cheaper from Amazon. The great thing about all Little Tike products is that they are 100% plastic and this is no exception. This means easy wipedowns and simple construction.

Once we had the easel constructed, Charlie started to uses his crayons on the paper that we had hung up. Straight away we could see that he was enjoying himself - he wasn’t saying a thing! hehe Any parent will know that to keep 2 old concentrating for any period of time is exgtremely hard - but the Little Tikes easel did it.
