Dry Erase Dinner Plate

So, neccessity is the mother of invention, or so it is said. Well, I had a sick little girl who didn't want to get off the couch, but wanted to draw- a LOT! So, I handed her a dinner plate and a dry erase marker and she was happy for hours!
 
(sorry the picture is sideways )

Super simple and last so much longer than those cheapy dry erase boards from the store! Kids love to draw, write and play games like tic-tac-toe and then they just wipe clean! At the end of the day, just throw them in the dishwasher and they will be germ free!
 
Of course you could always expand on this idea and get a rectangular serving tray, or really pretty serving plate and put it in a plate holder on the counter and use it as a memo board. Write what you need from the store or just little notes to your family- you could even decorate the edges with a permanent marker (then bake at 350 for 20 minutes) to permanently personalize each one- it would be so cute!
