Etch A Sketch Freestyle makes curved lines easy
Those of you that thought some toys were far too sacred and classic to be updated should probably look away, because you’re probably not going to like this one. Instead of your kids playing with the same old version of Etch A Sketch that’s been around for years, they can have a fresh new version. A version that basically takes any and all challenge out of drawing pictures on the screen.
It used to be you had to work the two knobs and you would get a sloppy simplistic picture. You had to work at it to get anything that looked remotely decent. Now kids can have the Freestyle version that instead of having two knobs, it has one. This one knob swivels around a full 360 degrees. That’ll allow kids to effortlessly draw curved lines. At least they still have to shake the thing to get rid of the picture. You can purchase one for $14.99.
Our favorite portable ice maker is the Sentern Portable Countertop Clear. The quality of ice cubes this machine produces is above all the others we’ve looked at. Its superior insulation allows you to store ice in it for an extended period of time.
After careful evaluation or top choice is the ”[amazon. The five blade assemblies included in the initial purchase are doing an incredible job and will be more than enough for home-use.
Our favorite vegetable chopper is the Fullstar Mandoline Slicer. It offers a vegetable cutter, mandoline slicer, and spiralizer all in one package. On top of that you’ll get a large collection bin and it’s made from BPA-free plastic.
Our favorite mesh Wi-Fi system is the TP LINK Deco M5. It allows you to connect up to 100 devices and covers 5,500 square feet, which would even be enough for an office.

Nooo! How can they destroy what was once a perfectly good toy? Being able to draw jagged lines was all part of the fun – these new curves just aren’t the same at all.
Can you still get the old ones??
I grew up in the 90’s and even I feel this is SOO wrong!!! The whole challenge of the etch a sketch was the idea that you cant make perfectly curved lines!!! They RUINED IT!
