The iTikes Canvas has a double identity -- it starts out as a familiar magnetic drawing board, but if you connect it to an iPad, it becomes a multimedia art experience. Users just need to download the free iCanvas app and then they can use a range of digital drawing tools like chalk, markers, and stamps. When their masterpiece is complete, they can save it and send it to relatives.
