I bought a can of magnetic chalkboard paint, and painted two coats onto an old coffee table that we have been storing. It seems fairly waterproof and goes on really thick.
It's proving very popular with my little guy and others when they come over to play. It's the perfect height for standing at to draw and scribble on. Standing up to draw and play seems more comfortable and natural for little ones rather than sitting at a desk or table.
Since it's so jet black, it creates a really cool effect when you throw some colored sand onto it. Almost like a reverse light table. And because it's magnetic, i'm going to have to buy some fun magnets to add to it.
Only spent maybe ten bucks, and I have a feeling this is going to get a TON of use!
