Editorial Review
Travel light with a small Etch-A-Sketch. This one measures 6.25 by 5.38 inches but looks and works just like the original, down to the white knobs. Its TV-screen drawing area is made as it has always been. The glass is covered with a protective plastic film inside the sturdy red case. Images are made with nontoxic aluminum powder. But who cares about Etch-A-Sketch technology when there are so many possibilities, once you've advanced beyond pure architectural representations? It takes fine finger control and concentration to operate but draws in people of all ages. --Lynne Sampson

A wonderful way for a child to expand their imagination May 26, 2008

The Ohio Art Etch A Sketch (EAS), is a great imagination booster for children, and yes, adults too. Go to the Ohio Art Website for a comprehensive look at all the Etch A Sketch models and better prices too!
Fast shipping of well packed product, in brand-new condition bring your child their very own EAS in short order, and make Ohio Art the place to go for this wonderful toy. I for one am tired of buying from Amazon sellers who send damaged items, then blame the USPS for "rough handeling". They take no responsibility for their having sent you a damaged item, or packed it so poorly that normal bouncng during shipment damaged the item. Then there are those who blame YOU for substituting a broken item for their "perfect" item, and trying yo "SCAM" them. Do yourself a favor. Before buying from any Seller here at Amazon, read through their history. You will be enlightened by the buyer comments, and the sometimes violent, verbally abusive, rebuttals from less than stable Sellers.
Amazon does their best to take the sting out of this type of experience, but in the end, you've been hassled, insulted, and had to pack and send back the product, at your own expence, to a quite often, angry and abusive seller who hates you for giving them less than high marks for their unprofessional business dealings and attitude.
Avoid the problem. Buy from Ohio Art, they're great people to deal with! I bought my 4 year old Daughter both the travel, and regular Etch A Sketch models when her ancient Travel Etch A Sketch gave up the ghost, and expired. Ohio Art even offered to repair or replace the defunct EAS at NO CHARGE! I refused their kind offer because my Daughter's EAS had been a "hand me down". The new ones Took 72 hours to arrive, and they arrived in beautiful shape, wrapped in bubble-wrap and paper, then packed securly in a 200lb test corrugated cardboard box, and I paid less than what the sellers are asking for here.
Some Amazon sellers do not have a firm grasp of reality. Nor do they even consider that you might look to the manufacturer to see their pricing. I don't think some of them even look at the page where they've listed their items. E.G.: a page can show a NEW item for $[...] and an identicle, USED "Collectible" item for $[...], or $[...]. Amazing what the word "Collectible" can do in the mind of some Sellers!

My boys both have one of these, because we take long trips home to see the grandparents. They love them. They both with them for quite a while before wanting to move on to something else. Good bang for the buck!

This is a timeless toy - this size is great for traveling, it keeps little hands busy and is QUIET! It's also sturdy and doesn't have little parts to drop and roll under the seat.
