What the AI looks for in Paint Daubers
- Washability
- Choose washable formulas for children under school age Daubers get on hands, clothes and tables, and the non-washable kind stains.
- Non-toxic labeling
- Look for an AP non-toxic seal (ACMI) for kids' daubers Young children put art supplies in their mouths, and the AP seal is the established art-materials safety mark.
- Cap fit and tip seal
- Caps should snap on firmly and the foam tip should not leak when held tip-down Leaking and dried-out tips are the main ways daubers fail.
- Bottle grip
- Use a wide barrel for toddlers and standard bingo-size bottles for older kids and games Grip size decides whether small children can control the dot.
Brands that matter
- Do A Dot Art!: Best-known washable dot marker brand for kids.
What to avoid
- Unlabeled bulk dauber sets with no non-toxic certification
- Using bingo-hall daubers for toddler art, since many are not washable
Questions
Are bingo daubers the same as dot art markers?
Their shape is similar, but bingo daubers are usually made for paper game cards and may not be washable. Kids' dot markers are designed to wash off skin and most fabrics.
