Default creating a blackboard on a melamine kitchen unit

Hi All
we have the normal white kitchen melamine units - on the cheap
and old side as it happens. We also have a 20-month old granddaughter at the
'drawing on everything with wax crayons' stage. There is one side panel
which would make a good site for a blackboard. Is it feasible to paint
blackboard paint over the melamine, or would we have to have some
intermediate paint layers, or would it be a case of creating a blackboard
from a sheet of ply and then screwing to to the side of the unit?
Suggestions welcome.

Thanks
J^n
