We had a real milestone the other day, Cameo came home from pre-school with his first drawing of people! I almost cried with emotion. I was so proud. Yes, they did resemble the Twits from the Roald Dahl book but it was epic. Recently Cameo has really got into being creative. From drawing princess castles to sticking stickers all over plant pots.
He has gone from zero interested to quite happily drawing lots and lots of pictures. As long as they include his name (he is practising letters right now) he is good to go. We’re obviously all for it. Anything that’s creative, fun, educations AND keeps him entertained for more than 10 mins is a winner in our book. The only issue is that painting can get quite messy and although the messy play isn’t bad, the cleaning up can be! That’s why we love Little Brian Paint Sticks!
We love Little Brian Paint Sticks because they’re easy for little hands to hold (a bit like a glue stick), the colours are bright and the texture is like paint but little ones use it like a crayon and it dries super quick (in 60 seconds). But even better, it’s great for mess-free messy play! It’s a great way of spending some quality time with the little ones too. So the boys get all the fun of painting without me having to clear up water spillages, paint splats and all the rest of it.
Little Brian Paint Sticks Art Station
This art station is fab for more mess-free messy play and means your little ones can get creative anywhere! It’s a little desk style station, one side is a chalkboard and the other side is a wipeable whiteboard with clips for paper too. It comes with 6 Chalk Sticks, 6 MINI Paint Sticks, 10 sheets of A5 paper, and a duster so everything your little ones needs to get creative. You can fold it down and store it away, it has a handle for easy carrying and is a fab little set. It looks fab too – so always on our gift list for others too!
Little Brian Giant Paint Stick 30 Assorted Colours
This is a fab set with every colour you can imagine, all stored in a giant Little Brian Paint Stick Tube! I love that looks like a giant paint stick there;s always something fun about a supersized version of something! There are 12 Classic colours, 12 Metallic and 6 Day Glow colours. It’s the perfect set for your creative kid and again, without the ridiculous mess! Plus, Little Brian Paint Sticks are made from recyclable plastic too! Winning!
The Little Brian Paint Sticks can be used on paper, card, canvas, wood, and glass with no need for brushes or water which is fab. It’s great to get crafty at any time of the year but because these are so good on so many types of material, the boys love painting stones which make great gifts. It’s amazing how a rainbow stone can bring so much joy to a family member!!!
You can purchase these fab sets and more from Smythes and other good toy or art retailers.
