Mess Free Painting for kids

mess free painting

Mess Free Painting with Primary Colour Mixing is so much fun, you’ll SO want to join in…

When I saw this post, I was kicking myself that we’d not tried it when ours were smaller, so you’ll be pleased to know that we’ve now had a go – and we LOVED it.

It’s a brilliant way to learn about colours, and how mixing primary colours creates new secondary colours – it’s almost a revelation to some children who have not had the opportunity to play with paints, and it’s done in such a ‘clean way’ it’ll please even the most fastidious granny, who doesn’t want messy little hand prints on the furniture, but also mess free painting is a great learning experience for everyone!

The mess free painting colours are so vivid, they don’t get ‘dirty’ in the same way that mixing paints haphazardly often creates a brown sludge!

The Mouse Paint book encouraged the child to mix some colours. Reading the book: “red mouse in a yellow puddle make orange” he pushes the paint around to combine the colours.
