What’s on kids’ minds in 2020? erasable fabric chalkboard patch, tote & tee convey their thoughts without saying a word

When the global toy community gathers in New York at the Jacob Javits Center, don’t be surprised if play professionals silently jot down their feelings using erasable colored markers inside a circle. That’s because Chalk of the Town (Booth 5219) will be introducing their Chalkboard Patch ($9.95). Think of it as the 2020 thought bubble. Ponder a sentiment then draw it with chalk markers. The next day, wipe it away with a wet cloth to make way for a new message for all to see.

The concept is catching on with consumers. Retailers at Toy Fair looking for the next-bigthing will be delighted to learn that Chalk of the Town’s Holiday 2019 sales were up an astonishing 400% over the same period the year before. Kids and adults adore the creative chalkboard surface that encourages creativity while boosting confidence. All products – t-shirts, totes and patches — are erasable and reusable.

 In the Beginning

Sondra Mansfield, the mompreneur behind this clever product line of customizable, personalized gifts, has always been crafty. When she noticed chalkboard surfaces trending in interior design, a light bulb turned on to put a chalkboard on a shirt to let kids create a new shirt every day.

As a mother herself, the product designer made certain the shirts were durable and machine washable. She expanded her line last year with the Chalk of the Town Tote Bag Kit ($19.95) after a successful launch of her Chalk of the Town T-Shirt Kits ($29.95). The kits became must-haves for kids, teens, coeds and adults. New for 2020 is the Chalkboard Patch that sticks to a lunchbox or can be sewn onto denim, a hat or a backpack.

Kits come complete with a high-quality cotton T-shirt or tote bag and water-based chalk markers. All ages can draw free-hand to decorate or use one of Chalk of the Town’s original custom stencils – designed and manufactured in the USA. Once dry, the justdrawn designs won’t smear.
