The Original Lap Desk Review and Giveaway!

I was recently approached by the people at The Original Lap Desk Company to do a review of one of their lap desks. As a homeschool parent, I know that my kids love to do computer work or school work any which way they find comfortable. They rarely use an actual table and with today's laptops and other mobile electronics, there is really no reason that kids and adults can't do their work where they are most comfortable.

This is where the lap desk comes in. It gives the user a cushy area that will rest on their lap and a nice sturdy work area. The lap desk that I used and my kids used is large enough for a laptop or a text book.

We tried out the Platinum series lap desk and loved it! The beautiful color is perfect for the teens and young adults. The lap desk is contoured to sit comfortably on you lap and fit nicely around your waist. The cushion underneath is made from a very soft material that feels great.

Why you'll love the lap desk:
  •  Sturdy material
  • Soft cushion
  • Perfect workspace solution
  • Comfortable anywhere
  • Perfect for writing and drawing
  • Ideal for laptop computers
My oldest daughter used the lap desk to do homework and use her computer. I like to do my online banking at night in bed, so I used the lap desk to pay the bills!

The lap desk is the perfect accessory to have at home. The Platinum Series comes in four bright colors, royal blue, purple, pink and lime green! So you can have more than one! Everyone gets to choose their own color!

The best part is that the folks at The Original Lap Desk are offering one lucky Adventures of a Homeschool Mom reader their very own Platinum Series lap desk.

Here's how this contest works:

    I'd love to win this because I use a netbook and it tends to get very warm sometimes when I have it on my lap.

    I use the internet each night. My little dogs want to be close to me so I do my work in best with them curled up by my side. This would make it so my laptop does't over heat.

    I would love to win this cause we sit so many times in the chair and have it on our laps, would be so nice to set it on something other than our legs!

    I'm constantly teetering the laptop/ipad on pillows while in bed or on the couch - this would be super helpful!

    I'm a student and so I spend a lot of time studying and doing assignments on my laptop with it sitting in my lap, and so this would definitely help keep my legs from getting too warm and numb. Thanks for the giveaway!

    Trying to hold my laptop in my lap and not covering the vents is tough to do and get your work done. This would be awesome.
