After looking at high priced drawing tables and easels, I found a very simple and cheap alternative.
I took the cardboard box our stereo came in, left the packing Styrofoam inside for a little extra support and covered it with used printer paper, blank side up.
I gave Caleb some crayons, and now not only does he have a drawing table, but a drawing cube.
For some reason, coloring on the sides is a lot more fun!
Thanks to Sheryl for this Frugal Baby Tip!

About Catherine: I have been writing my Frugal Baby Tips since 1982, when I was a young divorced mom of two - for my baby product company, Born to Love. I am now mom to three grown up sons, and a grandma - and happily married to a wonderful man. We have rescued two little dogs, Denny and Dexter - and a rescue cat, Bella.
Taking care of baby and mom needs naturally, does not have to cost a whole lot of money! Money-saving tips on diapering, diaper washing, safety, sling and baby carriers, toys, clothing, nursing, menstrual needs, traveling with kids, and more!
If you have Frugal Baby Tips to share, we want to hear them! It might even get published!
