FAQs About Children’s Paint 
What is the best kind of paint for kids? 
One of the best types of paint for kids is Acrylic paint. This type of paint is suitable for outdoor and indoor art projects. Being an opaque paint, it is also easy for children to paint over when they make a mistake.
Some other benefits of acrylic paint are that it is water-based, fast drying, easy to clean and leaves a smoother finish than other types of paint. 
What is the best paint for toddlers? 
One of the best types of paint for toddlers is Acrylic paint. This type of paint is easy for toddlers to use and has the added benefit of being fast-drying, non-toxic and easy to clean from surfaces. 
What is the safest paint for children?
We recommend choosing water-based paints rather than solvent-based or oil-based paints. Water-based paints use water as the liquid, and as a result, are safe for children as they release fewer chemicals as they dry.
