Query: Don't waste your money

I bought this for my 4 year old son for Christmas with the hopes that he would play and learn like I did when I was a kid. The one I had as a child was bigger with no bells or whistles. It did its job. I remember playing school with the one I had. But this one was a cheap piece of crap. It is way smaller than I thought it would be and when you try to pick it up the top slides right off and out comes all the chalk. I work at a school and my son loves to write on the chalkboard but not with this toy. This is probably his most least used toy that he owns. If you do decide to get this chalkboard then I definately recommend that you buy some better chalk seperately.
