This standard paint recipe is perfect for everyday painting with brushes, or fingers! Since it's only made with water, flour, and salt, it's safe for little hands.


This fun foamy paint is the perfect way to add some dimension to your child's artwork... and some absolute fun! All you need is shaving cream, food coloring, and school glue! And did you know that Amazon sells its own brand of school glue by the gallon for only $14.97?? Not a bad deal at all!


This craft is an awesome idea if you're planning on repainting walls, furniture, or just make your own chalkboard! You'll need paint and grout for this project, but if you're lazy like me and want to buy a small container of pre-made chalkboard paint, there's a 16.5 oz container for $10.99 on Amazon!


Chalk paint (not to be confused with chalkboard paint) is a beautiful design that allows the paint to dry in a chalk-like texture. Unfortunately you can't write on this, but it still is beautiful for walls and furniture!


This fun activity is perfect for outdoor play, especially if you have big windows! And the best part? One of the few ingredients is dish soap, which makes cleanup a breeze! I recommend ECOS dish soap because it is hypoallergenic, and clear, so it won't change the color of the paint.


This is a great and safe recipe for making your very own face pain! Kids will be much less likely to have allergic reactions to this paint because it only has a few ingredients. Perfect for Halloween and kid's birthday parties, or events!


This is the perfect "edible" paint recipe, because even though it's edible, it doesn't taste all that great. Sweetened condensed milk is only so tasty! But for those younger kids that still like to put things in their mouth for no reason, this is a great alternative to standard paints.


This simple and cheap paint will sure to be a hit at your house! And yes, I know what you're thinking... "it's gonna smell like milk!!" Well don't worry, because there's hardly any milk smell during, or after use. Though, if you're still worried, you can always add some essential oils to your paint to add a little freshness to your art!
