4 Things to Know About the Melissa & Doug Chalk Holder

  1. The wooden holder keeps chalk organized and prevents the box-explosion that happens with standard chalk cartons.
  2. The chunky chalk sticks are easier for small hands to grip than standard sidewalk chalk.
  3. Sidewalk chalk runs out fast when kids use it enthusiastically, and the holder does not extend the chalk’s life.
  4. The chalk-to-holder ratio skews the value — the novelty of the holder wears off before the chalk runs out.
