Shuttle Art Tempera Paint Sticks, 20 Pastel Colors, Solid Tempera Paint for Kids, Super Quick Drying, Works Great on Paper Wood Glass Ceramic Canvas

These are the best paint sticks for an easy arts and crafts activity. From a sensory perspective, they are a dream. Not sticky or bothersome. They glide smoothly and give great color payoff. The variety of colors in this pastel set is great and the shades themselves are lovely. As a busy parent, the last thing I want to do is deal with a massive set up or clean up process when doing an art project with my kids. These eliminate the fussiness of paint pots and the inevitable spilled water rinse cup- because no brushes are needed! They are great for kids of all ages- and honestly fun for adults too. Little hands have no issues holding these although, grown ups may need to help with fully securing the lids when putting them away to prevent from drying out. I haven’t noticed any staining on clothes and the colors wash off skin easily with a wet paper towel. We have so much fun with these! Get them!

These are awesome for journaling or for no-mess fun. They dry quickly (not good for blending, but great for layering) and are pretty opaque, especially in layers. Don’t expect precision; they are clunky and it can be hard to get a precise edge since they are so creamy and shaped like a glue stick (they twist up like one too). There are also imperfections in the paint itself - I was getting purple streaks in my grey blue, which happened to present itself in my color swatch so you can see. It’s annoying to cover back up, but for my uses it’s not a big deal. I didn’t find the color labels they come with to be exactly useful and some of the colors on the box don’t match what the colors actually look like. It’s always good to swatch your colors anyway. I labeled them regular names that I thought made sense since I’ll be sharing them, but I am also trying to learn watercolor painting using Winsor paints, so on my color swatch I did my best to approximate the color matches for my own learning. These are pretty pastel colors, portable, fun and easy to use, and even brown paper bags from the store or Amazon shipping paper become canvas material with these. I just ordered the regular color set too!

I bought these awesome paint sticks for my Sunday school students to paint some cute wooden frames that I had bought on Amazon. The “zjdbset Picture Frame Painting Craft Kit for 4 * 6 Photo,10Pcs DIY Unfinished Wooden Picture Frames with 12Pcs Painting Color Pen 4 Sheets Crystal Diamond Stickers for DIY Craft. “ These paint sticks worked perfectly well for the wooden frames. They were thick enough to paint the front and back of the frames. Very easy for my boys to use and well controlled because there was hardly any mess compared to other traditional paint sets. In fact these paints required NO WATER. NO PAINT BRUSHES and the paint dried very quickly! I was Ah’mazed that the kids still had enough time to insert their scriptures inside their frames because the paint had dried so quickly. I thought we would have to complete the Mother’s Day project the following Sunday but we didn’t. The kids knocked out their painting project in 2-hours. My kids loved the variety of colors the set had because they’re all artists so the MD project was something they really enjoyed. I will definitely be buying more of these paint sets because my kids said they want to paint something for Father’s Day. I highly recommend these paint sticks they truly are Ah’mazing!

These are our favorite paint sticks! They are easy to use, amazing pigment and color options and most of all so fun for kids to use! The paint wipes off any surface super easily too which is great for toddlers and young kids!

Amazing for my toddler to make bright marks. Kind of like the texture of an oil pastel, but washable! I am very particular about the products I buy. I want them to be good quality and convenient to use. I am very happy with these. The bold colors as beautiful and don't require a lot of pressure on paper to leave a mark. Also, easily washable, which is a must for my little one. No smell. If i didn't have a toddler, I would probably still buy a set for myself because they were really nice. Even my visiting brother-in-law commented how nice these were when he was using them with his son during a visit to our place.

Great product for introducing coloring skill to toddler. It is easy to open and close by a toddler and is easy to clean up. It also has clean ingredients for accidental eating by toddler. I am very happy with this purchase.

These paint sticks are my new obsession. The texture is so satisfying to work with, and the color payoff is impressive! I’ve always wanted to dabble in pastels, and this is a really low barrier to entry way to play. No set up, no clean up, just relaxing time to “paint”

We love these! Great quality and fun to use for all ages!
