This post really has a dual purpose…we all know kids LOVE to color, paint or just plain be creative.  Why not plan a whole event within an event?  Keep everyone at the party happy by keeping the kids occupied with paints, canvases, crayons, paper and painting-inspired snacks and decor!  Put it all together under a small tent, and they’ll feel like they’re in their own gallery!  We’ve assembled a bunch of images from other people’s paint parties for you to get inspired.  One suggestion…be sure to let the parents know what’s going on so they can bring old tees/smocks–and use washable paints!
