5 Things to Know Before Bringing Washable Paint to a Playdate

Call ahead before bringing paint to someone else’s house. The host may not want paint out, even if it’s washable.

Simpler is almost always better for young kids. Anything with more than three steps to set up works against you.

Washable paint is great for home use. It cleans up easily from skin and most surfaces.

Don’t assume other parents are okay with messy activities. Some prefer less cleanup or have different rules.

Keep the paint set for your own house unless invited. Showing up uninvited with it can create awkwardness.
