We stock a basic range of colours
for children whose main characteristics are that they
are water based, non-toxic and cheap. This makes them
attractive also to projects needing large quantities of
paint on a low budget. They make no claims to permanence.
They will wash off children easily but can stain clothes.
These are ideal for small children but older children
should be given better quality paints if they are to develop
an experimental and enjoyable approach to painting.

Basically a cruder form of gouache with a lower pigment concentration,
poster colours are used extensively by children in and out of
school because their low cost allows them to be used without
inhibition. We keep 568ml bottles of readymix poster paint in
15 basic colours (including an essential “Barbie”
pink). We also have a starter set with 6 170ml bottles and a
brush.

Mix this with water to make a smooth, creamy, opaque paint or
sprinkle on to glue for a velvetty effect. This requires more
preparation than poster colour but encourages experiment. Experience
has taught me that it begins to flake off within months. Non
toxic and in 11 colours including gold and silver |

These are the solid blocks of non-toxic water soluble opaque
paint which we all remember from school. We stock the deep well
palettes which you keep them in and which make them quick and
easy to clear away. |
