I purchased this paper thinking it can double up as both finger paint and regular drawing paper (since it’s bigger than regular paper). Someone this paper has shiny surface thus it does not work well with crayons. Babies need to draw really hard for the color to show up.

I wasn’t very pleased with the quality of this paper.
Whether we used hands or paintbrushes, the paper got ridiculously soppy wet and started tearing and ripping when I untaped it from the table. When I put it out to dry in the sun, it was so wet that it stuck to the table after it had dried. I like to keep the pictures, and it just won’t be possible with this kind of paper. True it is double-sided, but I couldn’t use the otherside because of how thin and cheap the paper is. The paint shows through.
If it’s just for the experience of fingerpainting, this would have been moderately acceptable. It is not so unusable that I’d throw it out, but when it runs out I will certainly not buy this company’s again.

A very generous pad of quality finger paint paper for a small price. The paper is usable on both sides and the size is great for a young artist. I only gave a 2 for duability, because finger paint paper is simply not a durable product by design. If abused, it will tear. If heated with a match, it will burn. Even a 2-year-old can destroy an entire pad in less then fifteen minutes. That said, if you put your grandchild’s masterpiece in a frame for display, my bet is it will last longer then you will. This is a well made product suited to its purpose and priced nicely. My 4-year-old granddaughter did discover that it is not suitable for use with crayons, colored pencils, or markers. It is, however, excellent for finger paints.

My 3 year old LOVES to paint! This is the perfect size for her and make all kinds of master pieces! The paper is thicker than another paint pad I have gotten for her so the paint doesnt bleed through.

My 4 yr. old grandson had tons of fun finger painting. He really got into mixing the colors to see what happened … red and yellow make orange, etc. And if you mix red, yellow, blue and green they make brown. He had so much fun he didn’t want to stop. I had to keep his 20 month old sister busy finger painting with me so he could keep trying out different techniques … hand and finger prints, letters and numbers, swirls and roads, … you name it, he tried it and can’t wait till the next time grandma brings her bag of craft goodies over. I was thrilled to find Melissa and Doug’s finger painting pad here on Amazon.com as our local Walmart only had the finger paints. Go figure.
