The Holidays, Naturally!!

When fans email about the new products they want to see from us, we pay attention. We have had requests for some sort of "play" dough and we were hesitant at first because there really so many great products out there and what could we do that would be unique and follow all of the standards that we keep at Wee Can Too®. Therefore, we came up with a wheat free, dairy free, preservative and chemical free dough that we like to call, "Veggie Dough". Like all of our products, we are keeping chemical colors out of the equation! Add a little cinnamon essential oils, and throw in some mica pigments for some sparkle and you have a great "play" dough that everyone can have fun with this season!

We are testing out the market and offering this for the Holiday season in a special art kit which comes with Veggie Tempera and Veggie Crayons as well. These will be added to our website soon www.weecantooart.com and they make GREAT gifts, just in time for the Holidays. We offer the red and green kit along with a fun blue and yellow kit as well depending on your celebratory preference. Happy Holidays!!

Easter Creativity!!

Wee Can Too has come out with a great natural egg dyeing kit, "Nature's Magic Egg", which I encourage parents to use instead of the yucky chemical dyes, especially since these will most definitely be going in your child's mouth if they are serious egg eaters like my kids. I think I can safely say everyone here knows how to dye an egg. If not, we provide instructions on the box. :) I wanted to get extra creative today because the weather was soooo bad (Spring in Eugene). I got out my Wee Can Too Veggie Crayons and made this fantastically fun activity with my two kids, Delta and Savannah. Here is a "how to" for extra special eggs for Springtime or Easter! Have fun...
First use the largest size on your cheese grater and grate some of your Wee Can Too Veggie Crayon into small pieces. Leave the rest for drawing on your egg. This can get kinda messy with the kids, so I put mine into separate cups.

Next, boil your eggs as you normally would and when hardboiled, remove with a slotted spoon and rest on the egg carton. Immediately start your decorating of eggs. Let the kids pick the colors and sprinkle a rainbow of decor on your warm eggs. Make sure the kids don't touch or pick up the egg, as they still are hot. It's important to supervise this part. My egg was initially to hot to draw on, the crayon kept dripping down, so I held the egg under cold water until it was the right temperature to draw with my crayon. After the decorating is done, set aside and let dry for at least 45 min. They will harden before then.


And what do you do until then you ask? Well, I used the extra crayon shavings to sprinkle on paper and then warm in the oven at a low temperature. My daughter had a blast with this and created some wonderful works of art!!


Not only did we have a blast doing this, but we have some gorgeous eggs to admire...as long as they don't get eaten. I hope you have a chance to try this at home. Have fun & Happy Easter!

Safe Finger Painting for Babies and Toddlers

Have you ever noticed how kids just love making messes, well most kids we know anyways! They not only love making messes, they love having fun while they’re doing it and don’t seem to have a care in the world about just how messy it can get. There are many creative activities parents can do to keep their children entertained. But what do you do for young babies that have just started eating solid foods? Well the last thing you want them to do is put yucky finger paints into their mouth…What about crayons and chalk? They say they’re non toxic but do you really know what all those ingredients are? Art products do not have to list the ingredients that are in art supplies and the ‘non toxic’ finger paints and chalk your children use have been known to have all sorts of chemicals and dyes in them that aren’t exactly wonderful for little one’s to stick into their mouths.

Wee Can Too has invented non toxic, eco friendly, natural, edible art supplies for babies and young children that are organic…That’s right you heard it, they are edible? How you ask…Our supplies are made from all natural fruit and plant based powders that are gluten free, have no preservatives, dyes, or dairy in them…and just think they are actually good for babies if they decide to put the paint into their mouth. Wee Can Too encourages all natural play for safe, creative, and colorful fun with your little ones! Wee Can Too does not encourage children to eat art supply products however our products are not harmful to children if paint is accidentally swallowed or gets into their mouths! Make sure you read the ingredient lists as they are plant based products for allergens that your children may have.
