Rainbow Creations Paint Sets   for young children are now available. These are intended for beginners; suitable for children age 3-4 years old. For children who have not painted before, these first painting sets would make a lovely gift. The brushes are specially designed for little children to hold in their palm as this is how young children naturally hold a brush at that age. They are short brushes which will not roll off the table when put down as they have a little ridge all the way down to stop them.

Children might be interested to know that knitting was originally used to create clothing and that today most of their own clothes are produced by machines. By k...
