chalk table

Today I started on our chalk table! Old worn coffee table and some black board paint...

 
And after painting....

 
It needs another layer and then it should be ready for chalking on!
 
**UPDATE**
 
24 hours after the 2nd layer of paint and the table was ready.  Used thick and thin chalks in a variety of colours.
 
 
This activity is good for - exploring colours and using a different medium.  Creating lines, patterns and shapes. 
Further ideas for this activity - space/night theme drawing rockets/stars/moon.  Halloween theme.  Can use magnets on the board, perhaps letters/numbers.
