With younger kids in tow, Hockey Moms are always looking for ways to keep siblings occupied at the rink. I’m always looking for new ideas to try with you, so I tried out the Think Board. Think Board Think Board lets kids, coaches, parents and teachers, write about anything on a clear, reusable, removable vinyl adhesive film that they can use on a desk, wall, table, refrigerator, or any other smooth surface. Unlike stationary, heavy white boards, Think Boards can be used anywhere, with no nails or drilling.
“I wanted an inexpensive dry erase board that would be easy to use in a dorm room, and also aesthetically pleasing,” said Think-Board Founder/CEO Hanson Grant, who developed it while a student at Babson College.
I tried out Think Board at home and at the rink with my 7 year old daughter. She loved being able to play X’s and O’s, draw impressive landscapes, farm animals, and write stories. She loved being able to wipe her ideas clean, and start all over. I love that she was kept preoccupied and creative, without screentime.
Think-Board comes in three sizes: 8-1/2” x 11” ($14.99), 30” x 30” ($24.99) and 54” x 30” ($29.99). It also comes in two sizes of monthly calendars. Each kit includes an Expo marker, spray bottle, squeegee (for installation), a set of Velcro dots (to attach the marker), and an instruction card on Think-Board.
If you are looking for a novel gift idea that will give you ongoing value and spark creativity and promote brainstorming, problem solving and creative learning, consider ThinkBoard!
