Piggy Paint™ Ingredients
Water, water-miscible acrylic resins and thickeners (well below 100
parts per million), glycol ethers. May contain mica,
D&C red lake, ultramarine blue, iron and titanium oxide pigments.
- Wash hands with soap and water.
- Apply 2 -3 thin coats of Piggy Paint™.
- Air dry 60 seconds.
- Blow dry polished nails for 1 minute with hair dryer set on warm heat/low blower setting. For safety purposes, please follow manufacturer’s instructions on blow dryer and always monitor your child.
Since most young children are squirmy during the drying process of
any polish, we suggest singing songs to pass the time. Two rounds
of the “ABC’s” should make 60 seconds pass by very quickly. Make
“Piggy Painting” a bonding experience for you and your child.
Do I have to use a blow dryer to dry her nails?
No, but it is recommended for maximum chip resistance. Since Piggy
Paint™ is water-based and does not contain harsh chemicals, it
takes longer for its ultimate hardness to be reached. The blow
dryer just speeds up this process.
Another alternative is to wait and polish your child’s nails after
bath time, before they go to bed. This will allow the polish to
cure overnight.
Piggy Paint™ As a Learning Tool
Fine Motor Skills
Let your child paint
your fingernails or toenails. If you’re worried about it
looking (well, like a child painted your nails), opt for the
toenails…you can always put socks on in public! This helps with
her fine-motor skills and gives her a chance to exert her
independence.
Color Names
Are you trying to teach
your child color names? Paint her nails with the specific color
you’re working on (such as red) and declare it a “Red Day”.
All day long, point out objects in her environment that match her
nails, and encourage her to do the same. Wear red clothes, add red
foods to mealtime and use a bath color tablet to make her bath
water red. Once she’s mastered that color, paint her piggies a
new color.
Patterns
Recognizing different types of
patterns is a hard concept learn for children to learn, so why
not put patterns right at their fingertips? For example, if
you’re working on simple patterns, alternate blue and yellow “Piggy
Paint” on her fingers. As you go through the day, help her to make
patterns with her toys, M&M‘s, crayons, beads…use your
creativity. Have her refer to her fingernails for help. Start
out with color patterns and then attempt other categories, such
as big doll, little doll, big doll, etc. Ready for harder
patterns? Move to three different colors or alternate pink,
purple, purple, pink, and so on.
School Colors
Does your daughter play
any sports? Perhaps she has a favorite high school, collegiate,
or professional team she cheers for. If so, paint her nails with
her team’s colors to show her support.
