Just got a great tip, so I thought others might benefit as well. Took a sponge and some toothpaste (Kids' Crest) to my dining room walls. My 2-year-old son just decorated them with black marker while I was out teaching. Worked like a charm. Now to remind my DH not to let him have markers unsupervised, that's a whole other story. Smile

I found baby wipes work great if the wall has real paint instead of whitewash.
And my kids get the honor of cleaning the walls themselves. Twisted Evil

Soft scrub with bleach works wonders.
