Finger painting

[Cherished]

Wasn't sure if this is the right section for this so mods please move in need be.

I was wondering where you get your paint from for finger painting? Or if just any water based paint is 'ok'

I want to take prints of DS's hands and feet and then stick stuff on the paper like what you do in scrap booking and then add some photos of the grandparents and give it to them for christmas in a frame.

Any other ideas or suggestions would be great

I found a non-toxic kids paint in Lincraft that I used for DD. Worked a treat and came out of her clothes too. It wasn't specifically for finger painting - I'm sure if you go to spotlight or lincraft, they'll show you what to use.

I got some finger paints from spotlight! Non-toxic and washable HTH

bummer, I was just near spotlight yesterday, wish I'd thought of going there as it's about 30 mins drive away. For some reason I thought I would be able to get it at Big W. I might check there tomorrow

i got a pack of four different colors from Big W the other day - specifically tagged as finger paint. non-toxic, water washed it out, and apparently has a bitter taste so they dont' eat it - E got a little bit in her mouth and pulled faces and that was it. she had a ball painting on Sunday!

OOO thanks for the thread. I wanted to get DD finger paints. Briggsy's girl, I think I need that one because DD eats her crayons

they had simple primary type colors and a sponge or two, and then flouro colors - we got both sets. not cheap cheap but not too exxy really
