Art Easel

If you’re searching for unique preschool art ideas, look no further than The Adventurous Child’s outdoor art easels. Our double-sided, 4 foot-wide Single Art Easel allows children to socialize and work with one another while drawing, painting and writing.  This extra wide outdoor art easel allows two children to paint side-by-side, or gives children the opportunity to paint from the back side while other children paint from the front side. This helps develop cooperative and parallel play, and assists in developing greater social interaction skills.  One of our favorite preschool art ideas is to have a child stand on one side of the art easel and have another child trace their outline or shadow.

Designed for outdoor classrooms, the Art Easel surface is made of durable clear Lexan. Children can paint directly on the clear surface or tape paper to the surface for artists who want to take their creations home. Each Art Easel comes with paint cup holders on both sides and can be conveniently hosed down, making clean up quick and easy for this ultimate piece of outdoor play equipment.

The Adventurous Child also offers a Double Art Easel, which allows four to six children to create and interact.
