Our double-sided, 4 foot-wide Single Art Easel allows children to socialize and work with one another while drawing, painting and writing.  This extra wide outdoor art easel allows two children to paint side-by-side, or gives children the opportunity to paint from the back side while other children paint from the front side. This helps develop cooperative and parallel play, and assists in developing greater social interaction skills.  One of our favorite preschool art ideas is to have a child stand on one side of the art easel and have another child trace their outline or shadow. Designed for outdoor classrooms, the Art Easel surface is made of durable clear Lexan. Children can paint directly on the clear surface or tape paper to the surface for artists who want to take their creations home. Each Art Easel comes with paint cup holders on both sides and can be conveniently hosed down, making clean up quick and easy for this ultimate piece of outdoor play equipment.

Contact Us BSc Archaeology and Geography Single Honours Degrees: BSc Archaeology and Geography Archaeology and Geography share a lot of common ground, both in the intellectual questions they seek to address and in the techniques they employ in order to answer them. The nature of past environments and the relationship between humans, their environment and each other are questions which occupy researchers in both disciplines. Geographers can benefit from evidence derived from the archaeological record, and archaeologists often draw upon findings from geographers in order to interpret the past. Students on this degree will therefore be studying two disciplines which support and complement each other very well. This degree will combine Archaeological Science and Physical Geography to allow students to investigate the relationship of people with the environment in the past and the present. At Level 1 you take 2x20 credit core modules in Archaeology . In the Origins of Humanity you learn about the development of early humans, study the world of new opportunities which followed the end of the last Ice Age, and explore the origins of farming. In
