The Etch A Sketch was first made available on July 12, 1960. Happy sixtieth birthday, Etch!
Did you have one? I had more than one through the years and enjoyed every one of them.
If you don’t have one now, maybe take a clue from the button and just sketch something anywhere–maybe even sketch the Etch A Sketch itself, if it suggests a world to you. Your dog or cat emerging from the Etch A Sketch? Your favorite pie (today is also National Pecan Pie Day!) resting atop Etch?
It’s a good day for creativity.
Wow! Awesome! See, happy things do occure in 2020. Or maybe just happy memories of childhood drawing on an etch-a-sketch is a better distraction.
Does this make you want to get an Etch-A-Sketch? Because I kind of want one now, lol.
Oh, I want to get one too!
