Chroma Kidz Colours - Fingerpaints for Kids

Chroma Kidz is a range of paint designed with the younger children in mind. This waterbased and non-toxic product has a smooth, creamy consistency. It’s a great product to be used for finger painting and also with other painting tools. Once dry, the colors will not flake or become chalky. The breakthrough washable formula makes the paint easier to be washed off from skin and also from most fabric. The paint is ideal for paper and cardboard surfaces.

The paints are available in 14 vibrant, vivid colors and come in a 500ml squeeze bottle packaging, retailing at RM21.90 per bottle.


As an introductory offer, we're selling the basic colors kit at only RM29.90! The kit consists of five 60ml bottles of colors; Black, White, Cool Yellow, Cool Red and Cool Blue. The sets are available for a limited time only while stock lasts. So hurry over and grab a set for your child's creative needs.


Due to the fact that the paints are strongly pigmented, we would still recommend that your child wear protective clothing. We sell smocks from Pebeo just for this purpose.

Smocks are available in 2 sizes:
For child age 3-5 years old, and for child age 5-8 years old.
