 Having trouble coming up with holiday gifts for people this year? Well, I got a unique one that you might be interested in Hey there, njroute22.com here with a general interest vlog today and today it's about a product called the Buddha board It's like an artistic thing all the artists in your life. It's basically a gray I mean, I'm sorry a blank gray canvas that you dip a paintbrush in water and you draw on it And it may it turns black basically or various shades of gray depending on The how it evaporates, but you paint on this thing and then you know in a little bit of time the whole image goes away and The concept behind this whole board this whole painting canvas it teaches sort of the Zen Buddhist mindset that there's always is only always now That's my favorite philosopher Alan Watts always said that Pat the past is happening right now in your mind It's there's no such thing as the past. There's only always now and the memory of the past is now in your head Everything is now and it's a very fascinating and mind-boggling concept to accept eventually because People always worried about the future or dwelling about the past Mistakes they've made and it's all happening in the now. We let we let our kids try out these boards They have they have a small board That's like five inches square and then a 10 in by 10 board and then they have a larger 12 by 10 That's actually 12 by 9 and a half But I like rounding up and I taught I let my kids use it and they they didn't know you know the instruction manual said oh You know be you know gentle with the amount of water you use and one of my kids here Just covered the whole thing and soaked it in water and what happened and the reason why they told you not to put too Much water because the surface kind of buckled a little after it fully dried after a couple days They went back to being smooth and flat again if you're gonna let little kids You know three or four year old kids use it there's a good chance that they're gonna ruin it But I think this is a really neat trick they range from anywhere from 15 to 35 dollars depending on which one you get I have links in the description if you want to click them and give us a little commission. That's it I highly recommend these things They're fun and they definitely work for a couple days to keep the kids occupied for quite a while That's it if you like this video hit the bell and subscribe and I'll see you next time
