Melissa & Doug Canvas Creations

I first previewed these cute Melissa and Doug Canvas Creations at the 2011 Toy Fair last February. They're now available at Amazon.com and at about $5/$6 apiece, make an easy gift (or party favor) that both parents and kids will appreciate. My favorite is the Fire Truck canvas. Each kid includes a canvas with outline, six bright (washable) paint colors, and a paintbrush. Browse the selection at Amazon.com.
