Little Artist's Easel

After having two boys who never really did a lot of painting/drawing before kinder and even when they went to kinder they didn't do very much and preferred to play with building blocks or make something on the construction table. I have a little girl that would sit and paint, draw and colour all day long. So I wanted to make a free standing easel so she can paint to her hearts content.

It's very simple to make, you only need -
A lager piece of cardboard (I used and old box no longer needed)
scissors
packing tape

you can cut your cardboard any size you like but I have cut mine 30cm by 100cm the sides are both 40cm long and the base is 20cm, now all you need to do is fold the sides up and tape it altogether at the top and there you have it and quick and homemade easel. I just use pages to hold the paper on (I find this the best way as the kids can take them on and off themselves)
