It’s the 50th anniversary of the classic Etch-A-Sketch toy and what better way than to celebrate than with Glow Sketch ($14.99)!

Founded n 1960, the Etch-A-Sketch is just as popular now as it was half a century ago, and the Ohio Art Company has sold more than 150 million units to date. I played around with the classic one ($9.99) I grew up with and it brought back fun memories. My kids love it and I’m happy to have this same toy back!

Visit the Etch-A-Sketch website and see what other versions they have to offer!

The true test was when I saw his hands full of pink, orange and blue. I immediately took a wet wipe and presto! it all came off. Even coloring my hand was not a big deal. Just write, and wipe off. Okay, don’t laugh at me for getting excited about markers but hey, it makes my life easier!

Get them at Amazon for under $10.

Once in awhile it’s nice to get a physical card instead of an online one.  When I saw these 5 x 7 Mini Art Cards by The Modern Baby Company, I thought “how cute!” These can serve as a greeting card as well as a gift tag. You can also frame them for the nursery

Printed on heavy card stock in the USA, I think all six animal designs are pleasing to the eye. However, envelopes are not included. Price for each is $8. The same artwork is also featured on their baby apparel. Check them out and visit www,themodernbabyco,com.

Personalizing on the site is easy. I just chose which options I wanted on the skin, for example colors, pattern and text, and sent a photo of my child’s profile. Then they sent me this thumbnail, which I was pleased about. When I got the product in the mail, I was very excited to see it in person. Placing it on my gadget was easy, since the adhesive-backing is easy to remove and adjust. You don’t get any bubbles either when you smooth out the skin. The price for this is $30.

Simply Silhouettes’ new collection also consists of skins for laptops and the iPad, throw pillows (see below), and maternity prints. Add this to their selection of stationary, apparel, plates, trays and wall art, and you can create sweet keepsakes of your children’s silhouettes for a lifetime.

Overall, I’m impressed with the service and quality of the work. Go and check out the 2010 Mother’s Day Gift Guide!

CONGRATS TO SUE!

There are 12 simple, high-contrast artworks by artists such as Keith Haring, Julie Opie, Damien Hirst, and Gary Hume.

Even if you buy this for a baby or a preschooler, you’ll want to have this on your coffee table too. It’s a nice, hardcover book with a nursery frieze included in the back pocket. For little ones or pop art fans, Art for Baby is a good buy for $20.

The Pop Art Toaster Creative Coloring Kit ($40) is for those days when you’re stuck at home with the kids all day.

It’s a toaster but you also can make creative designs on it. This set includes a toaster with 6 interchangeable image plates, 5 edible flavored food coloring markers, a removal hook, and a bonus coloring book which coordinates pictures with images on toast. There are 7 heat settings and 3 toasting functions. For easy cleaning, there’s an easy clean slide out crumb tray.

There are different Pop Art Toaster styles for every age group. As a group activity, I think this is a good product. Otherwise, toasting would be my main purpose. You can buy a Pop Art Toaster at Target for $40.

Another thing about these Crayon Rocks? They are made from renewable soybeans grown in the USA.

My son tested them out in his coloring book and the colors came out like pastels. He was really fascinated with them. When I noticed a few of the crayons left marks on his play mat, I wiped the streaks off with a paper towel with no problem.

There are 16 crayons which come in a cute red bag for storage. Price is $8 and sold at nicoandzoe.com.

This hand-painted tote bag sold at Kids Deserve Art is super cute and colorful. It’s great as a diaper bag, purse, beach bag and for those fun trips to outdoor markets.

Perfect for adults and kids as a gift!

There are three sizes available: small $32.00 (13.25″ x 12″ x 4″), medium $45.00 (18″ x 15″ x 5″), and large $70.00 (21.5″ x 17″ x 6″).

Kidsdeserveart.com sells paintings, coat hooks, light-switch plates, drawer pulls and prints designed by Canadian artists. Check them out!
