Boogie Board Jot 8.5 LCD eWriter - Gray

Think of all of those doodling and writing toys you've used growing up: magnetic doodlers, those cardboard pads with the gray film you peeled up to erase your masterpiece, even the famous Etch-a-Sketch®. Now think of how much more fun those would have been if you could actually write with any fine detail! That's what this "electronic notepad" reminds me of – and I love it! The Boogie Board is a thin (3.4 mm) tablet with a durable, plastic LCD writing surface. I love that it's pressure-sensitive, so you can make thick or thin lines with the stylus (or a fingernail) to sketch, doodle, take notes and more. But possibly the best part is that when you're done, you just hit the "erase" button at the top of the board, and – BAM!... it's all gone, instantly! The Jot 8.5 board has a writing surface of approximately 5” x 7”. It includes an eWriter stylus, a 3V battery that will last the life of the product, and also comes with magnetic strips you can attach to the back of the board if you'd like to affix it to a refrigerator, file cabinet, etc. The Jot Kids board also includes a hard-shell case for extra protection. The Blackboard Letter board is 8.5” x 11”, with a clear writing surface for writing on one of the four interchangeable templates or when writing over your own paper. This version also includes a lock setting and an eraser on the stylus for erasing like pencil. More fun (and portable) than a dry erase board, more fun than paper, make this Boogie Board a keeper. Older children and teens will especially enjoy these electronic notepads. – Jess
