What the AI looks for in Kids' Dry Erase Boards
- Lined vs blank
- Choose a double-sided board, lined for handwriting practice and blank for drawing. This doubles the board's use for school-age kids.
- Ghosting
- Choose a coated surface that wipes fully clean with a dry eraser. Cheap boards stain within weeks.
- Markers
- Use low-odor dry erase markers, with fine tips for lap boards. Strong-solvent markers are unpleasant for kids at close range.
Brands that matter
- Flipside: School supplier of dry erase lap boards.
- Expo: Low-odor dry erase markers to pair with any board.
- Melissa & Doug: Combination dry erase and chalk boards.
What to avoid
- Using permanent or wet-erase markers by mistake.
- Thin flexible boards that crease.
