There are things that just never cross your mind to give as a gift, when in reality these things make great gifts! For instance, did you know you can make a huge whiteboard in your home for around $25? Imagine the things you could do with this!
If you homeschool, do I need to say more? Other uses for a huge whiteboard? Well, Lauren is an artist. I love this and encourage her art, but the use of paper is overwhelming. Imagine having a wall that your child could create on as often as she liked?
How about one in the kitchen with your weekly chores and meal plans? I mean the possibilities are endless! All you need to do is follow the instructions that I linked up above.
Then you need to pick up some EXPO Markers! They come in a ton of colors and even have low odor! These are great for around the home and in the office!
- Expo Low-Odor Fine Starter Set: this kit has everything – 5 markers, an eraser and cleaner
- Expo Click Fine-Point Dry-Erase Markers: the first retractable dry erase markers! these AP Certified nontoxic markers are click, which means no cap to remove or lose.
Look at those awesome bright colors! Morgan is getting some of these for Christmas and then after Christmas we will build her a dry erase board in her room and hopefully one in her sisters room as well as our kitchen.
You can also create gift baskets full of goodies – an educator’s dream come true!
- Expo Low Odor 16 Pack Chisel Markers: great for color-coding the day’s to-do list on their board
- Expo Learning Board: perfect for writing on-the-go football, soccer, field hockey plays & more
- Expo Bright Sticks: these work great on the way to games to show school spirit on bus windows!
Don’t forget this would be a great gift for Sunday School Teachers and anyone that teaches or is even a homemaker or business owner! Think outside the box this Christmas and give your loved ones useful gifts this year!
Check this out, for every package of EXPO markers sold in the U.S. this November and December, EXPO will donate one marker to the Kids In Need Foundation up to a maximum of 100,000 EXPO markers!

Hey I need to find a volunteer to make one for my classroom. We go through so much paper on the flip charts. This will be great for your girls.
Just wanted to add that the best way to clean up any ghosting issues on the board is rubbing alcohol. It is not abrassive, and will take the ink right off without damaging the surface in any way. I made some of these in smaller form for my students in my ‘public’ classrom. They work great!! Also, matchless socks make great personal erasers for these boards.
