Thunderwolves - how does that homemade fingerpaint dry?? Is it likely to flake off?]]> Tue, 16 Mar 2010 07:16:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=32276&PID=969094&title=age-for-fingerpainting#969094 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=32276&PID=968997&title=age-for-fingerpainting#968997 Author: Mrs_B

I also work in an under 2's centre, we make our fingerpaint from cornflour and water, with food colouring ,so it is completly safe and non toxic, the kids love it, and if they eat some, it is really okay..]]> Mon, 15 Mar 2010 20:15:58 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=32276&PID=968856&title=age-for-fingerpainting#968856 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=32276&PID=968647&title=age-for-fingerpainting#968647 Author: sarahm

I work in an under two's daycare centre and we do finger painting with the babies as soon as the can sit pretty much.  We often do it sitting in the highchairs so its 'contained' so to speak!! We watch closely to make sure not to much goes in thier mouths but usually some does - leads to interesting coloured poos at times  We use a variety of paints, all of which are non toxic.]]> Mon, 15 Mar 2010 16:46:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=32276&PID=968647&title=age-for-fingerpainting#968647 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=32276&PID=968625&title=age-for-fingerpainting#968625 Author: lovingmummyhood

Instead of threadjacking Leah'smummy's thread... It got me thinking... how old to play with fingerpaints?? I think DS might try and eat a lot now but at the same time I also think he'd have a ball.

I remember seeing photos a while ago (Daizy maybe???) of two girls painting, and the little one wasn't that old and it looked like heaps of fun. Anyone else remember or is my baby brain making things up now?
What kind of paints?? Just any non toxic??]]> Mon, 15 Mar 2010 16:29:18 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=32276&PID=968625&title=age-for-fingerpainting#968625
