Ive been thinking id like to give hand and feet painting ago with callum i googled about paint it says theyre o kto use it frm 8months but on paint it says 2.

i cant seem to find non toxic toddler paint need that cos he might try eating it. But i did find a recipe sort of thing to make it usin flour,water and colour dye anyone heard of these sorts of things xx

Thomas is weird about sticking his hands in wet/sticky stuff so everytime Ive tried to do finger painting with him he goes mad . I have bought him an easel and some paints and brushes for his birthday and he is much better coordinated with pencils etc now so Im hoping he will enjoy it. I'm not sure about age hun but I'm sure he will be fine, I tried last christmas when Thomas was one and then again a few times throughout this year but he hates it so gonna wait. xx

elc should do paints. they do a good baby/toddler range of arts and crafts stuff!
hannahs been painting since she was 9 month old.

This is the result of one of Amelia's early painting adventures. She was 6 months old here and as you can see she ate some paint. She was fine, it's non toxic and she only ate a little. I used ELC finger paints as they're quite thick and jelly like. It's so much fun!

oh my god how cute is she!!

we have videos of hannah eating paint and everyone in the background screaming "EWWWWW" she quite liked it though

Alfie did it last week for the first time and loved it! He did eat abit but alls fine. He did it at baby group too so it must be safe for them that young
