Tips and Tricks

  • It is best to transfer a small amount of each color from the tin to a separate piece of cardboard using a spoon or spatula. Then, little fingers can pick up the paint from the cardboard. This will keep the paint germ-free and in its original condition.
  • If little artists get paint on themselves, Marabu finger paint can easily be wiped off smooth surfaces. Paint stains can also be washed out of most fabrics by hand in lukewarm, soapy water.

How it is done:

  • Cover the work area and lay out the materials. Put on a painter's smock, lay the cardboard flat on the work surface, and paint it with colorful finger paints.
  • If the boxes are colored, let them dry completely. Then, close the finger paint containers tightly and wash your hands.
  • Print the letters at the appropriate size on paper, then cut them out. These will serve as templates. Simply place them on colored cardboard and trace their outlines with a pencil.
  • Then, cut out the letters from the cardboard. Then, attach the letters to the door. Use removable adhesive tape so that it does not leave residue on the wood or wall.
