Perfect Companion Set Posted 9/14/2009 by ERIKA L. GUMMELS
I bought this to go with the Melissa and Doug Easel I purchased - it was nice to not have to buy all the items individually. Everything you need for the easel is in this box. Two things: 1) Buy an extra set of markers - this only comes with one blue one and if your child is like mine, they'll inevitably leave the cap off and it'll dry out so a back up set is good - not to mention you also get more color variety with the set M&D offers separately. 2) Although the paints are supposedly washable...you really need to wash them out immediately. I didn't and just threw my shirt in the wash...it came out with green paint still on it. However, when we pre-soaked other paint splattered clothing in oxyclean or zout, the paint came out. Otherwise, my daughter is loving everything in the set and the easel - I'd highly recommend it!
Quality, Quality, Quality! Posted 8/21/2008 by Marisa Simpson
I'm so glad I got the companion set to go with the art easel. It is so helpful to get it all together. Very impressed with amount of paper on the roll. My children love it!
worth it!! Posted 12/1/2008 by Michelle Peak
The Easel Companion Set was a great buy. The paint is great quality and the cups and brushes are perfect for less mess. My toddler loves to paint, but when she can't paint the chalk keeps her busy.
Easel Companion Set Posted 1/12/2011 by Michael Ferguson - GRANDPARENT
This Easel Companion Set completes the easel and makes the easel a 'ready to use' gift!
easel accessory set Posted 4/26/2010 by Vicki Scharp - GRANDPARENT
A must have for the easel - also the roll of paper and the giant paper pad.
Melissa and Doug Easel Companion Set Posted 11/29/2009
The chalk is a bit thin (if it falls on the floor it breaks), the paint colors are limited to four, the dry erase marker dried out right away. That said, my children have learned to mix paint colors to expand their palette and they are content (for now) writing with chalk pieces. We did, however, purchase additional dry erase markers. The paint containers and brushes are worth the purchase of this product. Amazingly spill proof, easy to clean, and the paint stays fresh from one day to the next without having to refill the paint pots.
Well done Posted 10/6/2009 by Benton Greene
Paint brushes are a bit thin but it's a thorough set for a child.
Product review of Easel Companion Set Posted 9/22/2009 by Jan Long - GRANDPARENT
This is the second time I have ordered this product for my granddaughter. I bought it last year along with the easel for her birthday. She really loves the easel and had used up all of the paint and chalk. So she asked for the companion set again for her birthday this year. This set has all the art items necessary to use the easel fully, including paper. My granddaughter was 3 years old when she first received this companion set with her easel and has so much fun making beautiful pictures for everyone. It is a must as a companion to the easel. Highly recommended!

I love this brand of toys. They are really good quality and stand up to the use of smaller kids.
Great product, excellent service Posted 8/24/2009 by MS YUHUA CHEN
Great product. It has everything needed for my kid to start on her drawing.
Great Product Posted 9/11/2008
This kit contains almost all you need for an easel. The only thing I would add is a pack of little cups for mixing colors. The paint really is washable, and the chalk is great quality.
Easel Companion Set Posted 8/25/2008 by Merrill B Collins
Excellent. Melissa and Doug brands are truly child friendly and spot on for usability. The set is wonderful in primary colors that match the easel and my son has already enjoyed the paints and chalk. The only possible complaint is that the dry erase marker does not seem to hold up very well to use by a four and two year old - the pen tip is already jammed into the marker.
A rating of Easel Companion Set Posted 4/24/2008 by Rebecca Richmeier
This kit is a great price for the items included. I primarily bought it for the paint cups. The only problem I've had with it is that the dry erase marker that came with the set does not erase from the white board. I had to really scrub it clean. Expo markers erase easily though, so I just threw the marker from this kit away.
Art supplies for easel Posted 12/27/2011 by Christine C
It is a good mix of supplies that come with the easel as a gift I had to wrap for 'grandma'. It saved me a trip to the store, but there are many more items you can get at a store.
nice starter Posted 11/26/2011 by Rebecca Thevenet
This is a good starter kit for my daughters easel. I know she is going to love it. I only wish there were more dry erase markers because the kit only comes with one.
Review for Easel Companion Set Posted 1/15/2011 by Samantha Schulller
Each component of the easel set is very functional for my 3 year old's skill level--the chalk is triangular, the paint cups are no-spill, and the dry erase marker's cap clicks on without too much effort. I did separately purchase the paint brushes with big, round handles, since this set came with the small ones, but she seems to like both kinds equally. I would also recommend purchasing (or making) a smock and spill mat to put underneath the easel.
Get this to go along with the easel Posted 1/11/2011
I bought the easel and decided to go ahead and get this boxed set to go along with it. This set (paints, paint brushes, paint cups, eraser, chalks, paper roll) really did complete the easel. You DO NOT get any art materials with the easel. For me it was the convenience of getting it all at once. You could go shopping around and probably get the accessories to the easel a little cheaper but for me it was convenience and I knew it was going to be good quality. I love the spill proof paint containers. My daughter is old enough to handle paint without spilling...but we have 2 dogs that like to get into everything.

a definate need for the easel :)
wonderful Posted 12/26/2010 by Ashley Parkinson
A great companion to any easle!
Product review of Easel Companion Set Posted 1/11/2010 by Claire Clark
Very well constructed and beautifully designed with the different colors. I highly recommend this product for those looking to purchase a quality prodcut that will last for many years.
Melissa & Doug's Easel Companion Posted 1/4/2010
Everything the mini-Picasso needs to get started with their M&D Easel. The nicest part of it all...It actually comes with easel paper! You don't know how fast a couple of 3 year olds can go through easel paper and having the back up roll for Christmas morning was a life saver.
Information about Easel Companion Set Posted 1/3/2010 by Steven Brownell
It is top quality and used every day by our two Grandchildren ages 7 and 10. It has taken abuse and still works well. The girls say the products are absolutely great.
Nice product Posted 1/2/2010
Product is a nice companion to the Easel.
A rating of Easel Companion Set Posted 12/29/2009 by Darneice Foster
It is great for getting started but more products need to be bought. For example only one dry erase marker is included and the brushes are really thin.
Good Product, Good Price, Good Shipping Posted 12/29/2009 by Chris Bennett
The product was good and well made. Manufactured with children in mind. No mess and easy clean up.
Couldn't wait to open Posted 12/29/2009 by TRACY
My nephew is 3 years old and was excited about receiving the paints for Christmas. He wanted to open them as soon as he opened the present.
Information about Easel Companion Set Posted 12/28/2009 by Edwin Cuevas
This product has the items you need to get your child started. My son has already created some marvelous, eye catching art using the Companion Set. I definitely will purchase another once it is finished.
My rating of Easel Companion Set Posted 12/28/2009 by Tara Loving
Excellent easel supply set!
A rating of Easel Companion Set Posted 12/28/2009 by MR FRANK VENDITTI
You only receive one white board marker. I think you should get more than the one.
Product review of Easel Companion Set Posted 12/28/2009
great for use with easel - has all the essentials for beginning arts and crafts activities. the paint cups are genius for small children
a nice paining set who loves painting Posted 12/27/2009 by Arumugam Jayabalan
The easel companion set is a good deal. I bought it for my 3 year old daughter who loves arts and paining a lot. After searching for this, i found it in Amazon sold through Fat brain toys. We like the set for its exceptional quality of the materials used. However, the paint containers could have been little smaller as no one will use that big container to fill the paints.
Review of Easel Companion Set Posted 12/27/2009 by Alice Setrini
The product was as it was advertised, but the chalk was not super great quality, and I think it's kind of silly that it only comes with one marker.
Easel Copanion Set Posted 12/27/2009
All the items were exactly as they were advertised and my Grandson was thrilled!!! This was the first time I had purchase anything from Fat Brain...I will be back!!!i
Easel Companion Set Posted 12/16/2009 by J. B.
We love all Melissa and Doug products! My only suggestion would be to include a variety of sizes with the paintbrushes. I bought this for my granddaughter to go with the Melissa and Doug easel. The jumbo brushes would be easier for her to handle. Good value packaged all together, to purchase each item individually would have cost more.
Easel Companion Set Posted 12/9/2009 by Angela from Indiana
This is a wonderful addition to the easel that we got for our son. He absolutely loves everything that was in the box. His eyes just lit up. It was perfect for his age group. He is just turning four, and he really can understand what everything was used for inside. The brightly colored items are good for more than just their intended purposes. It is good just to reinforce kids learning colors too!
Review of Easel Companion Set Posted 12/8/2009 by Derica Waller
We got this set for my toddler and she loves it! We got it with the easel itself and she has a blast. The paint gets a bit on the messy side, but the chalk and dry erase marker are easy.
Review of Easel Companion Set Posted 11/29/2009
Very satisfied with all aspects of the product
Easel Companion Set Posted 11/26/2009 by MEI LING ASKINS
This set completed the purchase of the easel. My daughter has painted many pictures and it has lasted more than 5 mins which is excellent for a 3 year old.
Review of Easel Companion Set Posted 8/14/2009 by Shonta Alexander
Very sturdy and really easy to put together. My husband asked if I wanted help and I said no, I got it. My daughter loves it and it keeps her busy and allows her to be creative and gives me a break. Thanks.
My rating of Easel Companion Set Posted 8/14/2009 by A Chestnut
This is an essential purchase if you are purchasing the Doug and Melissa Easel. I love the little cups that allow for the brushes to be inserted, minimized the mess and clean up. I think this companion set couldn't be more comprehensive; it gets our little artist off to a great start.
Decent, but curiously unlabeled Posted 8/10/2009
This product is good, and my kids are enjoying it, although I was a little puzzled by the fact that the chalks and paints were unlabeled when I opened the box -- contrary to what the picture on the outside suggested (i.e. the paint bottles and the chalk box were completely unmarked) -- it made me a little concerned about the authenticity of the product.
Great Set Posted 8/9/2009 by Tina
We bought this set to accompany the Melissa and Doug easel and LOVE the product! There is plenty of paint and we expect it to last quite a while. The chalk is a big hit as well. My daughter has been playing with her easel non-stop since it arrived over a week ago. She is our new little artist and whenever she feels inspired, she runs over to draw, paint or play with the chalkboard. Fabulous box of goodies!
Surprised Posted 7/23/2009 by Michelle Walker-Pippett
My daughter hasn't used this product yet as her birthday isn't for a few days still. But everything looks great; it looks just as it did in the picture and the product appears to be exactly as was described.
Hours of FUN!!!! Posted 7/13/2009 by MG
Great accessory for any little artist! My kids are 5 and 3 and they LOVE to paint. This companion set comes with everything you will need for hours of fun! No spill paint cups are GENIUS! Also comes with chalk, a roll of paper, paint, an eraser and dry erase marker. Such a great value! Melissa and Doug never disappoint!
enjoying it so far Posted 7/7/2009 by Amy Groll
Purchased product to accompany the Doug & Melissa easel. We seem to be enjoying it so far.
Melissa and Doug Posted 6/30/2009 by Christopher Eppley
The spill proof paint cups are nice as well as the lids. I also like the brushes. They are thick enough for little hands. This is a nice addition to the easel.
Best Easel Package Set Posted 6/11/2009 by Kelly
This product is great for all ages especially if you have the easel set to go along with it.
Review for Easel Companion Set Posted 10/2/2008 by Karolyn McDonald
We bought this as a Christmas gift for our 23 month old son. He has not yet had the chance to use it, but my husband and I have gone through all the items and we are suitably impresssed! It's an excellent collection for a buddin younr artist and made of durable materials.
Review of Easel Companion Set Posted 8/11/2008 by Shan
This product is AWESOME. My daughter is very active, and I love getting her new things to help her develope. This product is a wonderful fun way to help your child(ren) learn their colors and explore their creative side. She loves mixing he paint colors, and the feel of paint between her fingers. I've already recommended this product to my sister for her daughter; though she's not old enough for it yet, it is definitely worth the investment in a child's development.
Great deal on companion set Posted 8/10/2008 by Cassi
This set is a great companion to the Melissa and Doug Easel. I bought the easel and companion set for my 4 year old granddaughter and she absolutely loves them. My son also loves them because they are self contained and spill proof.
Wonderful starter kit for a great easel Posted 8/6/2008 by Karen D
Our daughter is two and a half and loves her new easel with starter kit. We got the starter kit from Fat Brain Toys which offered the lowest price we could find. It had everything we needed for our daughter to get started on her art work right away -- a large roll of paper, paints and brushes, chalk and eraser, and more. The paint cups are called "spill proof", and they truly are. Everything is very easy to wash and keep clean. The tubs of paint last a long time and can be bought separately as well, as can rolls of paper, more paint cups and brushes, and more paint colors. We highly recommend this kit to anyone who has bought the easel.
Melissa and Doug Easel Companion Set Posted 8/5/2008
I bought this as a gift for a 2 year old and he just loves it. He has been able to use the magnets and chalk board. Instead of another electronic toy, the easel (another brand) and this easel companion set was the hit of his party. Definitely a good buy.
Nice product Posted 7/31/2008 by Tamara Elias
Nice product - hard to put together
Information about Easel Companion Set Posted 7/31/2008 by Cecelia
Love the paint cups and the triangular chalk. Very toddler friendly. Good value; nothing to disappoint.
Information about Easel Companion Set Posted 7/21/2008 by Dianne Rowe
Great product. It goes perfectly with the easel that I bought my 5 year old granddaughter.
Review for Easel Companion Set Posted 7/16/2008 by Paul H
This set has several components for using the associated easel. There is a single, blue dry erase marker. My daughter had trouble replacing the cap and quickly pushed most of the marker tip up into the marker. The marker board does not erase cleanly, but leaves a faint mark even when erased immediately. The paints, color coded to match the other colors of the easel, are blue, red, green and yellow. They can be mixed for other colors, but there are only 4 cups for the paint included. There are about 10 sticks of chalk with a nice color variety. There is also a roll of paper that feeds over the marker board for drawing or painting. The edges of the board remain exposed, so it is easy to get paint off the paper and onto the marker board.
My son loves it!! Posted 7/14/2008 by Michelle Goh
I bought this to use with the Deluxe Easel. Love that the paint containers have covers to prevent leftover paint from drying. Would be good if the containers allow the covers to close with the paint brush in it as an option. Set has a whiteboard eraser but seems to be missing a blackboard duster though...
Easel Companion Set & Service Posted 6/26/2008 by Christina Borleis
The product works perfectly with the Melissa and Doug Easel and is good quality.
Very pleased Posted 6/12/2008 by Martha Williams
I was very with my purchase from Fat Brain Toys. It was even better than I expected. It is for my grandchildren’s art center and they have not seen the supplies, but, I know they will be surprised. I especially wanted the no spill paint containers for their easel, but all of the other supplies came with the kit, so, it is perfect. It also arrived in just two day. That was a surprise too. So, thank you for your product and the quick response. Sincerely, M. Williams
easel companion set Posted 6/10/2008 by Erin
Product is very good and a great set for the kids. It has a little of everything with the chalk, paints and marker. Love the painting cups because it really helps with the no spill
Easel Companion Set by Melisssa and Doug Posted 5/6/2008 by Christine Pavlick
Perfect set to endless creativity for my kids. The paint cups fit perfectly into the easel and I love the drip catching lids. Worked better for my 6 yr old and not so intuitive for my almost 4 yr old. The dry erase markers haven't been used as much but one of the markers had a tip that sunk into the marker and I had to toss it. Lots of paper! Wish it was maybe 2-3 inches longer.
Melissa & Doug Easel Posted 5/1/2008
The brand is always the best. This easel and the companion set are no exception!
Great Set Posted 5/1/2008 by Zoraida Rodriguez
Great set! I bought easel and was glad to have ordered the set. Recommend buying both together.
great so far. Posted 4/28/2008 by Elizabeth Mayer
great add-on for the easel. just the perfect amount of everything. i went ahead and got some additional large paintbrushes because i thought the ones included were a little small, but i bought if for a 3 year-old so larger brushes made more sense.
Review of Easel Companion Set Posted 4/26/2008 by Linda Johnson
This was a birtday gift for my granddaughter along with the easel. It is her favorite gift. It was well made and she has played with it constantly.
Easel Companion Set Posted 4/24/2008 by KJK
Great set. Includes everything you need for your easel. Saves money. You don't have to purchase the items separately at a greater cost.
Wonderful Product Posted 4/16/2008 by Emma B
Our household is a big fan of Melissa & Doug products. This is no different! Great quality. The kids love making all of their art projects!
Good Quality Product Posted 4/16/2008 by Mona A.
I bought the Melissa & Doug Easel Companion Set to go with the easel. I'm very glad I did! It has everything you need to get started using the easel. I wish it came with more than one dry erase marker. I am happy to have all the paint supplies in one place.
Product review of Easel Companion Set Posted 4/15/2008
The Easel Companion Set really made the easel complete and ready for my daughter to use. The chalk is great. The paints are of a good size. The containers for the paint are wonderful. I wasn't sure about getting it. I thought I could buy the items separately. This was a great product. I'm so glad I bought it.
Easel Accessory Box Posted 4/2/2008 by Kelly Burgan
I bought this for my son's 6th birthday to go along with an easel that we purchased. He loved everything. I loved the spill proof containers!
Review for Easel Companion Set Posted 3/31/2008 by Erin Mulqueeney
I gave this to my two year old daughter for Christmas along with the Melissa and Doug Easel. She absolutely loves it. We have so much fun painting and drawing pictures with the chalk. The paint containers really make it easy and keeps it clean when we paint. The only negative thing about this set is that the chalk is really thin so it breaks really easy. I think the first day two of them had broke. However, the colors are great and we are still having fun four months later. I would recommend this product to my friends.
Very Good, Helped Make The Easel A Hit Posted 1/8/2008 by Jane Shaw
This was a very good selection. Without it, the easel we gave our son would have been a bust. This kit had everything you needed to get started and enough of it.
Good Value Posted 1/2/2008 by Christine
All in all, it's what I expected. I thought there would be more than one dry erase marker, but there was only one, and that broke rather quickly. My 3 1/2 year old smashed the tip off the first day of use. Other than that, it was nice to not have to cobble together all items needed for a new easel set.
Product Is Great! Posted 12/31/2007 by Sara
Everything included in the set is high quality.
A Great Gift Posted 12/28/2007 by Mary Shaw
The ideal companion to the easel. It has everything needed to get started. Your young artist will love it.
Good Products Posted 12/27/2007 by Nathaniel Hall Jr.
This is a necessary item if you buy the Melissa & Doug easel. It has all the things a young artist is going to need to paint and draw.
Perfect Art Set Posted 12/26/2007 by Bill Sweeney
I bought this along with the Melissa & Doug Standing Easel. They are both great. The easel is made of hardy, wooden construction, and this companion set is the perfect, well, companion. A perfect product.
Easel Companion Set Posted 12/25/2007
The companion set was very nice, however the grease pen broke within an hour of opening the set and using it on the Melissa and Doug easel.
Great Product And Quick Shipping Posted 12/12/2007 by Jill Hagler
We ordered this companion set along with the Melissa and Doug Easel. It's perfect and has all of the necessary accoutrements to get your young artist started.
Product review of Easel Companion Set Posted 12/12/2007 by Jeni Millikin
Excellent. We purchased this at the same time as the Deluxe Standing Easel and it made the gift giving effortless. My daughter immediately started using the easel and everything in the companion set and has absolutely loved everything. This (with easel) has been one of the best gifts we have ever given her.
Great Set! Posted 12/12/2007
This had everything my 2 year old needed to get started with her easel. Great value for the money.
A rating of Easel Companion Set Posted 10/22/2012 by Bonnie Hoyle - GRANDPARENT
Although I did purchase the companion set as a Xmas gift, it is not the first one I have purchased. I bought one last Xmas for my 4 year old grandson, along with an easel. He has gotten so much use out of both. The paints are about empty, that is why I am replenishing them this Xmas. They have been the best "sitters", so Mom can get work done. The paint is also a great "clean-up". I'm sure I will be purchasing more in the future.
