a hard, durable finish. There are no toxic chemicals; it’s free

Piggy
Paint™ Ingredients Water,
water-miscible acrylic resins and thickeners (well below 100 parts
per million), glycol ethers. May contain mica, D&C red lake,
ultramarine blue, iron and titanium oxide pigments. - Wash hands with soap and water.
- Apply 2 -3 thin coats of Piggy Paint™.
- Air dry 60 seconds.
- Blow dry polished nails for 1 minute with hair dryer
set on warm heat/low blower setting. For safety
purposes, please follow manufacturer’s instructions on blow
dryer and always monitor your child.
Since most young children are squirmy during the drying process
of any polish, we suggest singing songs to pass the time. Two
rounds of the “ABC’s” should make 60 seconds pass by very quickly.
Make “Piggy Painting” a bonding experience for you and your
child. Do
I have to use a blow dryer to dry her nails?
No, but it is recommended for maximum chip resistance. Since Piggy
Paint™ is water-based and does not contain harsh chemicals, it
takes longer for its ultimate hardness to be reached. The blow
dryer just speeds up this process. Another
alternative is to wait and polish your child’s nails after bath
time, before they go to bed. This will allow the polish to cure
overnight    
 
 
 
Piggy
Paint™ As a Learning Tool Fine
Motor Skills
Let your child paint your
fingernails or toenails. If you’re worried about it looking
(well, like a child painted your nails), opt for the toenails…you
can always put socks on in public! This helps with her fine-motor
skills and gives her a chance to exert her independence.
Color Names
Are you
trying to teach your child color names? Paint her nails with the
specific color you’re working on (such as red) and declare it a “Red
Day”. All day long, point out objects in her environment that
match her nails, and encourage her to do the same. Wear red
clothes, add red foods to mealtime and use a bath color tablet
to make her bath water red. Once she’s mastered that color, paint
her piggies a new color. Patterns
Recognizing different types of patterns is a hard concept
learn for children to learn, so why not put patterns right at
their fingertips? For example, if you’re working on simple
patterns, alternate blue and yellow “Piggy Paint” on her
fingers. As you go through the day, help her to make patterns
with her toys, M&M‘s, crayons, beads…use your creativity. Have her
refer to her fingernails for help. Start out with color patterns
and then attempt other categories, such as big doll, little
doll, big doll, etc. Ready for harder patterns? Move to three
different colors or alternate pink, purple, purple, pink, and so
on. |
