ABSTRACT:
A play desk in the form of an animated character having the main body portion thereof in the form of an openable compartment with a first surface textured to provide a chalk board and the opposing surface having aligned parallel grooves and slots for receiving removable alphanumeric members parallel with the board by engaging the slots or perpendicular to the board by engaging the grooves. Simulated arm members are pivotable for supporting the desk on an incline with either body surface exposed. Simulated leg members are pivotable between a first position for supporting the play desk on a vertical plane or to a second position in line with the lower edge of the body compartment to permit inclining of the desk. A head portion is configured about the periphery for insertion therein or imprinting therein of a face of a character with the peripheral ridge forming a tray. The arm members may be hollow to serve as additional storage.
