Artistics for Kids: Ready to Paint Kits, Ages 7+ $19.99 and up

These are the the new age paint-by-number, but without the numbers!  A special wax coating on the paper keeps paint only on the image – kind of like a fancy magic pen book.  Layer paints to create shading and depth, then frame your masterpiece!
