Celebrate 60 Years of Etch A Sketch

Etch A Sketch Classic

Introduce your kids to unplugged creativity and drawing (without a pencil.) Etch A Sketch is reaching a major milestone this year, celebrating 60 years on Jul. 12, 2020. Etch A Sketch Day, observed annually, marks the day this toy was first sold.

This year, Etch A Sketch joined forces with other iconic names for a series of limited edition launches earlier this year, including the beloved MONOPOLY brand, space exploration leader NASA, heritage toy Rubik’s and comic book marvel Stan Lee. To mark the milestone anniversary, Spin Master is bringing back the limited-edition Etch A Sketch collaborations starting in July at Walmart and Walmart.com, while supplies last. 

To further celebrate Etch A Sketch Day, the original red-framed Etch A Sketch will be 60% off at Walmart and Walmart.com for one day only on Jul. 12.
