Magic Whiteboard Review
One product we recently reviewed which fits nicely into that plan is the Magic Whiteboard. It's not a traditional whiteboard, with a solid form that eats up precious space. The Magic Whiteboard is a roll of plastic sheets that uses static cling to temporarily adhere to any flat surface.My family has been loving the freedom that this allows!
I stuck a sheet to the family room wall and Corinne and Evan used their dry erase markers to create a birthday poster for Justin's party. When the party was over, they moved it to the hallway for random art creations. The next week, we took it down and brought it to our homeschool co-op where we stuck it to the wall during our 3-legged race so that Justin could create a bracket system to find the ultimate champions.
Versatile and durable? Yes. We've only used 2 of the 10 sheets in 1 month (and that was only because my dear husband didn't know it wasn't trash and threw one away!).
The best feature of the Magic Whiteboard is that it is SO small and lightweight. For presentations which you will need to write as you talk, it's perfect. I haven't had a situation where we needed a project written up in advance and then transported, but we did fold up our bracket sheet and bring it home and the drawing was still in great condition.
Check out their website to find more information on the Magic Whiteboard!

My family and I have attended several Emerald City productions and have enjoyed them all. They're a great way to introduce your children to live theater without the fear that their youth will disturb other patrons or that the material will be above their comprehension or maturity. Alexander and the... Day is a story about a boy who is just having ONE OF THOSE DAYS. You know the type of day I am talking about. My kids can't wait to see it when we attend in April!
