We bought this when we ordered the easel. It is an ok starter set as it has most of what your toddler will need to use his easel.
Then marker arrived broken - the point pressed in the first time we touched it to the whiteboard and we had to throw it away.
The chalk is horrible - it makes a lot of dust. We will definitely buy another brand ASAP.
The paint cups seem very nice - this is the only item we will probably keep.
The paintbrushes are only ok - the hairs come off after only a couple of uses. It is very nice that the brushes are color coded with the paint and the paint cups.
The set only comes with one eraser - we had to get another for the whiteboard. The one it comes with works well for the chalkboard.

This review is from: Melissa & Doug Easel Accessory Set (Toy)

My son received this as a gift to go with his Melissa & Doug Deluxe Standing Easel, and my son loves it. Comes with seven items:

1) Washable paint in four colors: red, blue, yellow, green...my son has learned how to mix colors for orange and purple...and the paint is washable but you still might want to purchase a Melissa and Doug Artist's Smock.

2) Paper roll is nice, but kind of thin...depending on how your child paints, it may soak through a little.

3) Dry-erase marker in blue; I bought an Expo Low Odor Dry Erase Marker Set so my son would have different colors, but the one that comes with the set works great & wipes off easily.

4) Felt eraser. We use this one for the chalkboard side of his easel, and I bought another eraser for the dry-erase side of the easel.

5) The spill-proof cups are awesome. The lids screw off so you can pour the paint in, and they have flip tops that can be open while in use. There is a hole under the flip lid that accomodates the paint brush, and the area around the hole slants downwards so any run-off slides back into the cup and not over the edge.

6) The four paintbrushes come in red, blue, yellow, and green -- helps a child keep the colors from getting messy.

7) The chalk is awesome, but not sure why they have black chalk in the set -- you can't even see it on a green board. The chalk goes on and wipes off easy enough. The design makes it easier to hold, especially for littles ones learning how to hold a writing instrument correctly.

I wish the set came with two erasers, and more than one dry-erase marker, but otherwise this is a perfect set.

I bought the Melissa and Doug Easel and this companion set to go along with it for my nephew. There are no drawbacks. The brushes match the cups. The cups are spill proof. It has everything your child will need to paint, draw, or write up a storm. This was a well thought up and executed product.
