Paint; if you find some in a home, chances are, there are kids around. I find myself collecting all kinds of paints – different colours, different types, etc. I can’t help it. It’s just so beautiful and fun.

My kids love playing, creating and exploring with paint. If our paint has made it out of the cupboard and we have paintings waiting to dry, we’ve had a very good afternoon.

Here are 10 fun and creative painting ideas for kids. Happy playing, because #playmatters.
