  • Help your children embrace their natural artistic sides with these colorful fingerpaints

  • FUN FINGER PAINT TECHNIQUES

    Waves, Wiggles, and Prints: Make strokes, waves, wiggles, finger and thumb prints, and other marks with different parts of the hand and arm.

    Symmetrical Designs: Paint on one half of a piece of paper then fold it closed and smooth down with hands. Unfold and there will be a mirror image of the design on the other side.

    Texture With Tools: Use combs, stiff paint brushes, sponges, sticks, dry fir branches, and cotton swabs on the finger-painted surface.

    Etching: Scratch away designs in the wet paint with your fingertips.

    Dot Paintings: Make paintings completely out of dots. Use different colors next to each other so that they mix visually.

    Animals: You can create animals from finger paint. Paint the body of a turkey or peacock. Then press your entire finger into the finger paint and make ""feathers"" around the turkey's or peacock's body.

    •  Pro-tips for cleaning the drawing board:

       

      • Wipe the drawing surface with a damp cloth or damp paper towel.

      • Dry thoroughly to remove any residue.

      • Drawings left on the surface for an extended period of time may need a drop of liquid dish soap on a damp cloth to remove. Rinse with water and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth or paper towel to remove any residue. Do not immerse the unit in water to clean.

    • Although CRAYOLA washable products are water-based and designed to wash from skin and nearly all children's clothing, the dyes and pigments included in Crayola washable products react differently to various skin types, depending on a person's body chemistry.

      Normally, Crayola washable products can be removed from the skin by washing with soap and water. If you are unsuccessful with soap and water, try using baby wipes, baby oil or make-up remover. Since Crayola washable products are water-based, you may find that keeping the area moist with water will help to lift the stain.

    • Although refills are not sold separately, we have DIY solutions below so you can keep the creative fun going!

      • Paper Discs: The paper discs are  6" in diameter. Trace one of your original discs on a paper plate and cut it out.
      • Ink: Washable Crayola Paint diluted with water is your go-to solution!
        • Although we do not recommend removing the nozzles from the ink bottles, dilute the paint with water in a washable paint cup or use a plastic squeeze bottle. Mix the water and paint with a disposable spoon. Use the spoon to drop the paint onto a paper disc to create your masterpieces. Discard any unused diluted paint after use.
