If you are looking for an indoor activity to engage your kids with, these paint sets will keep them busy for hours. The art kits will also help them develop their creativity while having lots of fun at the same time.
Some of these paint sets are a great investment if you are just starting out with your art supply collection. This includes spill-proof painting cups and plant-based sets for eco-conscious families.
Other kits are more focused around a particular project. This can be seen with bird house crafts and even custom sneaker decorating. Even though the vast majority of these products are old school and likely similar to ones you played with growing up, technological advances are sneaking in. This includes a painting robot that can make exact copies of your kids' best artwork.
