Hi! I am throwing a baby shower for a friend and heard of a great activity I'd really like to do. Providing the attendees with onsies and toddler tshirts with an assortment of puffy paints or other fabric pens/paints so that each person can design their own shirt for the baby. I haven't been to the store to check it out yet, but what I wondered was if this would be unsafe for the baby/toddler to wear?
I've never used these materials and don't know if the paint starts peeling off with washes. Or if a 6 month old were to chew on the shirt (mine went through that phase) or a toddler peel off peeling paint and end up eating it, if it would be safe?
I haven't been shopping yet and planned to go out today. My experience with this kind of stuff is it will specify that it's only for use by kids of a certain age, but that's for USING the paints. I am doubtful it will say an age appropriate for babies/children to WEAR. Any advice/knowledge would be much appreciated!!!
