    The little tubes of acrylic that students use for school art subjects are non-toxic and hold their color well. I have used them for something similar in the past and they still look good.

    I got some from our local IGA. Ikea also used to stock brilliant cheap non-toxics.

    Good luck in your quest!

    There's also water based stamp pads - not sure whether I got it from Spotlight?

    With paint, we put some paint on paper towel or a sponge to do my baby's prints.

    Spotlight and Riot both have great paint for kids!
