Abstract:
A study aid device for use with a breakfast cereal box as support, said study aid comprising a bag open at the top and having a bottom, an anterior side, a posterior side, a right side, and a left side, said bag having a shape and size such that said cereal box can be placed into said bag, said bag having affixed to the outer surface thereof a plurality of panels serving to form pocket-receptacles for study tools such as sheets of paper, erasers, and erasable markers,wherein said plurality of panels includes an anterior panel and a posterior panel affixed respectively to said anterior said and to said posterior side of said bag,where at least one of said plurality of panels is transparent,wherein said plurality of panels also includes a right-side panel and a left-side panel,wherein said fours sides and said bottom of said bag are made of a soft fabric,wherein a stiffer reinforcement material covers said bottom and extends partway up said anterior side, said posterior side, said right side and said left side,wherein affixed to an upper part of said right side is a right-side strap and affixed to an upper part of said left side is a left-side strap, said right-side strap and said left-side strap being sufficiently long as to overlap when said left-side strap is extended toward said right side while said right-side strap is extended toward said left side and where said right-side strap is provided with a first coupling surface and said left-side strap is provided with a second coupling surface such that when said right-side strap overlaps said left-side strap said first coupling surface overlaps said second coupling surface with the result that said first coupling surface removably adheres to said second coupling surface, said first coupling surface being complementary to said second coupling surface,where an outer upper portion of said right side is equipped with a first adherent patch such that said right-side strap can be positioned so that said first coupling surface is put into contact with said first adherent patch causing said first coupling surface to removably adhere to said first adherent patch, andwherein an upper portion of said left side is equipped with a second adherent patch such that said left-side strap can be positioned so that said second coupling surface is put into contact with said second adherent patch causing said second coupling surface to removably adhere to said second adherent patch.
