Paste Spreaders - Pack of 10

The Paste Spreaders pack is a must-have resource for any early years or primary art space, providing a clean, easy-to-use solution for spreading glue, paste, and paint during craft and collage activities. This pack includes 10 durable plastic spreaders in assorted bright colours, each measuring 12cm in length. Specifically designed for young hands, these spreaders are lightweight and easy to grip, making them ideal for children ages 4+.

Each spreader features a stopper at the head to prevent glue or paint from dripping onto hands, minimising mess and increasing the likelihood of a positive, frustration-free art experience. These versatile tools help children distribute adhesives and paint evenly across their work surface, ensuring full coverage and precision in their artwork. Particularly helpful when working with large glue or paint containers (like 2L or 5L bottles), these spreaders support both independent and group art sessions with minimal cleanup.
