My little creative bean has been at it again, I mean just look at his lovely little concentration face! He really does love being creative and this time he’s been making rainbows with some fabulous Paint Pop Paint Sticks! Rainbows seem to be his thing right now, I think it’s because he just wants to use alllllll the colours and this is the best way of doing it. Well, he’s not wrong. The pictures always look so pretty!

Paint Pop Paint Sticks are super bright & colourful, with no mess & fast drying (your little-ones artwork can dry in under 60 seconds!). There’s no need for water like standard paint and they’re easy for little ones to twist up when they need more paint! They work like glue sticks with a chunky stick so really good for little ones. Plus, because they don’t need water etc, there’s no mess and there’s lots of free-flow creative play which helps their independence and creativity. The paint sticks can be used on paper, card, wood and glass (it can be wiped off very easily from glass – check my stories on Instagram to see!)

We’ve been using the Fun Tub (which includes 12 classic paint sticks in a tub and is £7.99 RRP) & the Giant Storage Tub (which is £12.99 RRP and includes Includes ALL colours in the Paint Pop portfolio including 30 Assorted Paint Sticks – 12 Classic, 12 Metallic & Neon colours. Both of these tubs are available now from @smythstoys. Both sets are fab for storing away or taking away with you, which means they’re great for the school holidays coming up. They’re great value for money and last ages.

Getting craft is our go-to activity for days when we have no plans or want to have some simple fun & it’s always a winner! We have a little craft corner at home and we always keep the Paint Pop Paint Sticks out so the boys can just go and help themself when the mood takes them. I love that they’re so easy to put away compared to paint but you still get all the fun – if not more!
