Painting


Hey Girls, after asking you lot what to do with our LO's, I've decided to paint with Archie next week. I'm going to cellotape lining paper to my kitchen floor and strip him to his nappy. Only one thing I need advice on, what paint do I use and where do I buy it from?

You could try the Early Learning Centre, they have loads of bright poster paints that should not be too much of a nightmare to get off any surfaces that Archie may decide to re-design changing rooms stylee!!

I'd use a brush TBH, you'll get a much better finish....

I'd get some from ELC or another shop aimed at children, at least you know they're safe for babies then. I'm getting some paints for Harry for Christmas but the thought of all the mess makes me cringe
