A drawing toy with a gray screen surrounded by a red plastic frame. There's 2 knobs, 1 at the lower right to move horizontally & 1 at the left to move vertically~a stylus displaces aluminum powder to create visual fun pictures. Really Fun! When I was a kid, my Mom accidentally stepped on my Etch-A-Sketch & the aluminum powder stuck to her shoe! She ended up throwing that pair of shoes in the trash & it taught me to take care where I placed my Etch-A-Sketch!
I drew a map of the USA on my mini Etch-A-Sketch in about 5~10 minutes! So Very Awesome! You can make lots of drawings of anything on an Etch-A-Sketch.
