My daughter has been begging me to hang up a whiteboard for her to play "school" - but knowing how often school changes "classrooms" - as in getting moved around the house, I've been hesitant to start drilling holes in the drywall.  So I thought why not make a simple little easel that she can place her whiteboard on, and when class is in session in the hallways, instead of the dining room or playroom, she can just move the easel to move her whiteboard.

On a simple project like this, you don't want to spend all day making it, and you don't want to spend a fortune on supplies.  So I thought simple is better, and just made a little A-Frame that leans against the wall.  I used up mostly scraps to make this, and it only took me about ten minutes from cut to finish.

It's a little short (mine - I've made the plans taller for you) for my eight year old,

But pretty close to perfect for my one year old.  

This little leaning art easel is easy to modify for your kids height too - or to change up for your whiteboard (or art canvas or chalkboard).  

I also put together a quick little video of all the steps, so check that out too!
