- Tempera Paint Sticks - 12 Bright Colors, Quick Drying, Easy to Color and Washable Crayons for Teens and Students

Keeping an active toddler is a full time job, any parent will agree. Having a product that helps makes things fun while keeping messes to a min is always a plus. These paint sticks are easy to use, big for toddler hands to hold and seem to wash off easily from little hands, tables, clothing, walls (yes, my little one made me test this theory). Despite some shenanigans from my toddler, I have to say this is much easier to deal with than open liquid paint that you have to clean up for accidentally spills. Plus these paint sticks are soft enough to have you little one do finger painting with it as well if you choose. Works on all sort of paper so far with no issues. I still try to use an old T-shirt as a smock, but these are pretty well contained. Aside from some more color choices, I highly recommend them as they are fun and bright colors. Just need to be careful they don't start painting the walls when you are not looking, although to be fair it did wash off fairly easily with 2-3 rise and wipes. This purchase was inspired from a fellow parent that recommended them who had similar positive reviews of them.

I bought these for my two-year-old grandson who loves to paint. I wanted something that would give him the experience of painting but not be messy, and these are excellent. The colors are vibrant and the paint goes on smoothly without streaking. I also bought some stencils and a roll of easel paper. I taped the stencils to the paper, then taped the paper to the counter so he could use the paint sticks without the paper and stencils sliding all over the place. The paint caps aren’t easy to open so, after choosing a color, he hands it to me to open, which gives us time to work on identifying colors. The paint sticks are super easy for little hands to hold, and he has learned how to angle them to get the paint to look the way he wants. He loves to give his “paintings” to mom and dad after being at Grammy’s house. I love how the cleanup is easy with soap and water, and I’m pleased that these paint sticks work for a two-year-old. I can see him using them for at least the next 10 years.

Great for kids and friends, but also unique in that they dry super fast and won't stain. Not as dark as oil stick but also not as expensive and easier to handle. Great on paper. Was honestly surprised and liked them enough to write a review. Some of the colors are not as saturated as I might like, but some are, and it was less than the cost of two oil sticks, so I recommend giving them a try. The price makes it low risk.

I love this product. I used it with my students for the first time last year and it was GREAT!!!! This is a reorder from the same company. The colors dry bright and shiny. They don't peel or clump. Students love using them for lots of projects.

I got these for our granddaughter, she loves drawing, and coloring pictures. She has a good time, and when she finishes, it's a matter of a few minutes to clean up the table, her hands, and any stray streaks. Good product for children's art projects.

I am really impressed by these markers! I've never seen anything like this and was excited to try them. We have those paint dabber markers and they end up being super loud and are really only good for dots. Regular paint is messy and requires a lot of set up, then the results aren't often what the kid was picturing and they get frustrated. These markers are a huge hit with my kids ages 20 months to seven. They handle lake regular markers and come in so many colors! We were surprised how smooth they are and very easy to apply so even the toddler gets good results. Cleanup is a snap and once the paint is dry it really does stay put. I painted boxes with white acrylic paint and these were perfect for decorating afterwards. I'm buying another box for when we run out of favorite colors and I'll be keeping a box in my closet to have on hand for an unexpected gift. Overall excellent and I'm really glad we tried these!

There really is no reason to spend more for other brands. I have bought Maymoi paint sticks over and over again for our own house and as gifts. They are obviously great on paper like a butcher roll, but I have actually used them on some many other types of products because they have such a solid color (not the neons). The metallics are lovely and different than the non-metallics. They are washable, so if I want the color to be more permanent on a certain product (like a rock or box) I put a clear cover like a spray coat or nail polish over it.

These are a pretty brilliant idea. The colors are rich, they go on super smooth, so far they've washed out of or wiped off of everything. They don't get the paper soggy or take so long to dry that when the project is complete and the child begins running around to show off their artwork the paint drips and splatters all over (I'm looking at you, watercolor), so that's pretty cool! The metallic colors are especially striking.
