Tempera Paint - Premium in a child's hands
Premium tempera paint in red, 500 ml, from the range mixed to the colours of the Montessori materials. Red is the first colour most children name and it is everywhere in the room: a primary colour tablet, the red rods, the hundreds of the decimal code. A paint that matches those exactly means a picture of the rods looks like the rods. Water based, water soluble, good coverage and a short drying time. The other colours in the range are separate items.
Creative Expression
Encourages self-expression through art while developing aesthetic appreciation and color recognition.
Fine Motor Skills
Squeezing paint and controlling flow strengthens hand muscles needed for writing preparation.
Independence
Child-friendly bottle design allows independent paint dispensing, supporting self-directed art activities.
How to present it
Place the red tempera paint bottle on a tray with a small palette or paper plate, two water containers (one for cleaning, one for fresh water), a sponge, and quality paintbrushes. Cover the work surface with a waterproof mat and have the child wear an apron.
