This was a free item from 3M.  My daughter loves to play school and we have already used it to do her homework- anything that helps to get it done:)  The easel stays up very well and can easily be collapsed for convenient storage.  The tear off sheets are great and the top has self stick like a sticky note so things can be hung on the wall for her to see.  It comes off the wall with no residue from the self stick left.
