WA Salvage has some good kids paints and also crazy Clarks quite has some arty stuff for kids. There should be a few near your area.

Hi,
I have fond quite a few things at the $2 stores near me (at the Wanneroo Markets etc) and also at Spotlight when they have sales. I just bought some paint from there which was reasonable.Being an ECE teacher I also have quite a few recipes 4 making fingerpaints, playdough, slime etc at home. If you want them just email me and I'll send them to you klotter@mail2me.com.au. I do craft stuff with kids almost everyday. They love it
Let me know how you go
