Crayola Washable Kid's Paint, Assorted Colors, Pack of 10

My toddler LOVES to paint - the crayola washables are easy to use, come in a variety of colors/styles, and can be used as finger paints as well as with brushes. This 10 pack was a great price, the pots contain a surprising amount of paint given their size. The paint works well and evenly on any type of paper (we've used construction, painting/art, printer, and coloring book pages and all work just fine), the colors are bright and fun, and the clean up is very easy. It says not for use under 3 but my daughter just turned 3 in june and has been using it for a year - as long as you pay a modest amount of attention, there's no reason a young toddler can't use this...

Easy to use

This is the second time I have purchased these paints. The first time I bought the six pack but I like the extra four colors (turquoise, white, brown and magenta) that come in this ten pack. The bottles are small (2 oz. each) but I find that the paints last a long time! Each time my boys paint I take a plate and squirt out about a 1/2 - 1 tbsp. of paint of each color and they go to town. My boys are 2 and 4 and I don't worry with these paints. I let them paint on card stock (printer paper is okay too but I prefer thicker paper) on the kitchen table and if they spill it washes up easily (even if I don't wash it until later that day). Also I had a chance to test out the washable part with fabric this week! My four year old got it all over his long sleeves (of course they were white) and on his swim shirt (rash guard) and all of the paint came out. I was surprised that the red and purple came out of the white long sleeves just because I didn't notice it until a little bit later that day. Just remember to follow the directions: wash in HOT water with NO stain way or pre-spotter. I ran them both under the hot water and scrubbed them a little and all but a little bit came out. Then I threw them in the wash on HOT and wa-lah, clean clothes. I love these paints and they are well worth the price. :) If you want bigger bottles try the Crayola 4ct Washable Fingerpaints Primary or Crayola 4ct Washable Fingerpaints Secondary . They look great too!

When we bought this paint I have to admit that I expected a lot. Crayola has a reputation for children's art supplies that I remember from even when I was young. For my children it's always been my first choice. Even with that in mind, I wasn't disappointed, not even a little. The only down side, and I'll admit it was a very small downside at that, was the difficulty of getting the paint out of the containers. My instinct was to shake it like a ketchup bottle, but I was afraid of getting paint everywhere. It's decently thick paint, so I shouldn't be surprised it was challenging. Eventually I just swept it out of the paint jar with a paintbrush (which took a little more effort than I probably wanted to spend) into the paint cups we got. I would advise using something other than paintbrushes, but it was the best way I could think of at the time. Once the paint was out for use, we loved it. The colors were thick and smooth. My child loved how easy they were to use and how vibrant the colors were. They dried quickly and were easy to clean off of every surface they accidentally got on. We love the way they cover the paper. They're some of the best children's paints we've used. I will definitely be purchasing these paints again. The only down side? I wish they sold this same set in bigger containers too. That would make it ideal for my larger family since it would last longer, but even these little jars of paint last pretty long.

Being the fingerpaint fairy with four nephews and a niece I can tell you from experience that these are the best finger paints. They are vibrant, richly pigmented, and dry fairly well. Pros 1) great color selection 2) great color saturation 3) decently easy clean up (water washable even from clothing, walls, floors, ceilings, chairs, hair, faces, brother's legos, etc.) 4) small enough quantities that the kid should still be in high school when the artwork is dry, even if they use all of every color on a single work. (not that they've ever done that. well, more than three times each at any rate) 5) great feel - not too slimy, not too gluey, but also not too splashy Cons 1) the small amount in each bottle means these are one-child containers. but, IMO, better that than one kid dumping out all of the 12 oz of red (if the containers were bigger) so his brother can't have any (not that that has EVER happened) Tip: Use larger heavy weight paper if your kid(s) like to pour it on and squish it around... water color paper is perfect.

These are great colors! I do think they dry a little bit dull, but I like them better than the neon set we have. The paint is thick and smooth -- great for painting on heavier paper or other crafts. The paint is washable as stated, which is always a big help with little artists. I was able to get pink splatters out of our woven rug with nothing but a wet paper towel! My only real complaints are that it can be messy to pour, and the smell of the paint bothers me, even after it's dry. There is something distinctive about it, although my husband says he can't smell it! So maybe it's just me. ;)

I really liked these for play and art therapy....being that kids r naturally messy and explorative, I am in need of a good washable paint.the kids really like these. Personally as an adult I dislike that the paint is transparent a bit and can't use a wet brush or it will be thinned out even more....but the kids don't seem to mind at all and rlly love it....audience says it all!

These are great paints- my daughter like to paint along side me, but she also likes to use a LOT of paint and she tends to get it on herself and the floor, etc, and the paints I use tend not to wash out. So I decided to get her her own set of these Crayola paints. They are little jugs of different colors (your basic primaries plus a few extras). They flow nicely and blend together beautifully, and a little goes a long way. They are also easily diluted with water, so you can do a little "wastercolor"-esque painting with them. As far as washability- I've had great luck with hot water and no pre-treating. But I also make sure that my daughter is in "messy" clothes before we paint since drying time (once acrylic paints set, they are pretty much plastic that nothing but harsh solvents can get through) is always a variable in stain-removal success. These are great for kids. Highly recommended.
