My days of drawing rock band logos on my knees are long gone, but life would have been a lot easier if the non-toxic Tee Juice fabric markers were around back then.
My son and his friends tried them out during the world's best playdate, and I found the thick roll-tip markers were especially good for little hands. The vibrant colors are great on everything from white tees to canvas sneakers, tote bags or nylon laundry sacks--good news for parents of scouts and sleep-away campers.
The paint flows easily without being too gooey or too dry; just make sure to put a piece of poster board inside the t-shirt so the ink doesn't bleed through to the back. (Although my son did decide it looked cool anyway.) Then set the designs by ironing it for 2-3 minutes and voila--a wearable masterpiece that will last forever. Or at least until their next growth spurt.
Also cool? You can enter your artwork in the Tee Juice weekly contests. There's a whole category for 12 and under, just for your budding Warhol. -Betsy
