Face painting is a great way to enhance your little one's pretend play - by painting their faces they can become a tiger, dog, fairy or butterfly. Your kids will love having their faces painted. Don't worry if you don't feel you are artistic enough, however your artwork turns out, they're bound to feel the part!
The best face paints to use are sold in palettes like water colours, rather than the crayon sticks that you may know from your own childhood. You can apply these paints with a sponge or brushes. Start by creating a wash all over the face using a base colour and then add the detail using brushes.
