"My grandchildren had a blast with these paints! They came off skin and surfaces effortlessly, making cleanup a breeze. Highly recommend for kids’ creative time."

"This was a perfect birthday gift for my 3-year-old—he’s obsessed with it. My only minor gripe is that the paints don’t have easy-pour tips, so it can get a bit messy when transferring to the palette."

"My 2-year-old absolutely loves painting with this set! The spill-proof containers are a lifesaver—I've accidentally dropped them several times and never had a mess. The colors are bold and vibrant, and everything washes off clothing and surfaces with ease. I really appreciate how the paint stays fresh with the caps, and there are plenty of matching brushes.

"I really appreciate that these paints are completely safe for babies, since they're made from food ingredients. While they're a bit pricey upfront, a single pack lasts us for years because a little powder goes a long way. The colors aren't as bold as regular paint and they can fade over time, but that's to be expected with natural pigments. Cleanup is a breeze, and I've never had them stain my kids' skin. I just make sure to avoid using them on fabric or light plastic surfaces. For mess-free, worry-free play, these veggie paints are perfect!"

"These paints were just what I needed for sensory play with my 9-month-old. The textures, colors, and subtle spice smells made the experience really engaging, and I felt comfortable letting her get messy since the ingredients are safe. Cleanup was super easy—I just did the activity in the bathtub. The paints do dry to lighter, chalky colors and aren't ideal for anything you want to keep permanently, but for fun and exploration, they’re fantastic!"

"I love that these paints are non-toxic and safe for my little one's hands and mouth. The powder format is convenient for storage, and the colors are accurate, though not super bright. I even used them to color play dough. Great quality and easy to clean—these have become a staple in our art supplies!"
