All children love to play with finger paints and they love to glue things and make pretty pictures.
This can be quite destructive on a nice dining room table.
Another option is purchasing kid size tables that are less expensive than a dining room table and are the perfect size for a small child to work at.
There is nothing more fun for kids and parents alike than to play with paints and glues and to make pictures and artwork to hang on the refrigerator for all to see.
The one problem with these crafts is that they can create quite a mess in a dining room and in some cases can damage an expensive dining room table.
Not to mention the spills that can ruin a hard wood floor or the carpeting under the table.
Instead, set up children's tables in the play room along with an easel with paper underneath or cheap carpeting so the adult furniture does not get ruined.
This is going to make it much easier for the kids to paint and glue without worrying about damage.
Also, these tables are much easier for children to sit at comfortably.
These tables are designed for small children and they come with chairs to match.
They are easy to clean and if they get stained, it is not going to be as big a deal as it would if it were the main dining room table.
Not only is the cleaning easier, but kids love having a table that fits them perfectly and that they can call their own.
Do not risk ruining the dining room table by doing arts and crafts with children at it.
Instead, get children's tables where they can make their mess without worrying about the damage.
With these smaller tables, kids can have more control over what they are doing and can sit at them more comfortably.
