One side is a chalkboard - for chalk, chalk paint, and the tactile experience of drawing on a matte dark surface that wipes clean with a damp cloth. The other side is a whiteboard with plexiglass panel - for dry-erase markers, water-based paints, and the smooth, wipeable surface that works with a wider range of media. Two children can work at the same time, each on their own surface, facing each other from opposite sides of the 27\"W cedar frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAt 48\"H x 27\"W and approximately 30 lb, this easel is built to stand outdoors year-round without treatment or seasonal storage. The Western Red Cedar frame requires no staining, resists rot and insects naturally, stays comfortable to touch in summer heat, and lasts 15 to 20 years outdoors. It is sturdy enough that young children cannot tip or push it during active use, and light enough for an adult to move between different positions in an outdoor play space as needed. It ships fully assembled - unpack and use immediately across North America.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eKey Features of the ONP Double-Sided Infant Art Easel\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eChalkboard Side\u003c\/em\u003e - A full chalkboard surface for chalk, chalk pastels, and chalk paint;
