Chalkboard/Peg Board Desk
I have looked everywhere for a pic of this little chalk/peg board desk. I finally found one on ebay. I so wish I could have bid on it but as much as I love the sweet memories this brings to me, I have no good place to keep such things so I had to stand by and watch it go to some other fortunate soul. I got one of these for Christmas when I was about 4 or 5 and I loved it almost as much as I loved my toy piano, which is saying quite a lot. Oh, did I ever love this thing! It was so much fun! Part chalkboard, part peg board, all mine and in my room so that I could play with it anytime I wanted. It was awesome.
That holiday season, my parents hosted a New Year's Eve party in our home and although I normally spent all of my time at those sort of functions flitting around, sticking my nose into whatever the adults were doing, I have a very vivid memory of spending the biggest part of that party in my sweet little bedroom playing with my new blackboard/peg board desk and thinking that those wacky adults just didn't know what they were missing. lol
Loking back, I now realize that I was correct. They really didn't know what they were missing.
