Teaher and Homeschooling Mom's Experience

I ordered this color 3 years ago for my two boys and just ran out of base colors. I have used many different types of paint as a teacher and have been very happy with the quality. I'm not sure why people say it can't be washed. It washes out of our bathtub, hardwood floors, clothes, etc. It didn't wash off the carpet even with professional cleaning, but by the time the accident was dealt with a whole bottle of paint had soaked into the carpet and wiped off a few hours. I have my kids never had them paint on the carpet but our pup got into the bottle and smeared our whole living room with it. It's washable anyway, in my experience (unless they recently changed the formula). Ours didn't flake and we've used them on things like dried clay dough, wood, pumpkins, etc. If the peeling bothers me, I mix the paint with Elmer's Glue (teacher trick)! As far as I know tempera cannot be used on glass so I would ignore the reviews that complain about it. Overall I am very happy with this purchase. The price seems fair to me when you buy three years of artistic experience. I will order more!

Pros
  • Includes a translucent backing paper that shows through for added brightness
Cons
