I really like the Crayola Color Wonder markers and paper for that age, washable is a crapshoot, to be honest.

I also like the Crayola dry erase crayons, those are great too.

@nana87: we have some crayola dot markers that Ben really likes. They're thick so they're easier for him to hold and move around. We made finger paint out of instant mashed potatoes once but it was messy and hard to spread. We also tried the Crayola my first finger paint, but the sticky paint stuff, though not colored, is pretty gross. I've found it impossible to clean off of things.

P.S. I refuse to buy anything but Crayola Washable art supplies. MIL bought her some knock offs for Christmas and they're a pain to clean. I've since hidden them!

Sidewalk chalk is big with us right now. It's a good size for gripping and since it's been nice out, I have been letting her at the patio, sidewalk, playset, even the sides of the house, haha, because it's easy to wipe off.

We have had a hard time with markers. She gives me side eye with Color Wonder - she's like, why won't this draw on my arm and the wall? Though she will use them sometimes - but I have also found them to dry out quickly. Washable is pretty washable from skin and clothes but it's still a pain when it is all over the house. She eats crayons.
