How this product aligns with the EYLF

Supporting creativity and self-expression
The Glitter Paint Blue offers children a medium to explore their creativity and express themselves through art. By incorporating this paint into their artwork, children can experiment with colour, texture, and design, fostering their individual artistic voice and enhancing their creative skills.

Supporting play-based learning and inquiry
This glitter paint encourages children to engage in play-based learning by inviting them to explore various artistic techniques and concepts. As they mix colours, apply different painting methods, and discuss their creations, children develop critical thinking and inquiry skills while enjoying a hands-on learning experience.
