I need to find a toddler Art Smock with sleeves for my almost 17 month old for art time at daycare. I cannot seem to find what they want anywhere... Micheal's, Buy Buy Baby and Toys R Us near me all don't have them.
I found a few on amazon but they were over $20 which just seems insanely overpriced!
Anyone know where I can look online or a store name that I can call to see if they carry them?
Thanks
IKEA. If there's one near you, they are full sleeves, washable and cheap.
Ikea sells them in 2 paks and they are great!
check at:
dick blick
OR
oriental trading company
both have sites online and have children's artists smocks or aprons! Also, consider looking for plastic camping ponchos for toddlers.
good luck!

I bought some at Ikea super cheap. I can't guarentee they still have them but they did the last time we were there.
Lakeshore learning has some possible options such as there http://www.lakeshorelearning.com/seo/ca%7CsearchResults~~...

Does it have to be plastic? I avoid the plastic ones because they don't last and the paint just stays on the surface of them, then smears into anything it touches. I use men's button-down shirts in my daycare. I bought some heavier weight ones at Goodwill, roll the sleeves up and have the kids put them on backwards. The fabric absorbs the paint, but doesn't bleed through, they're floor length so they protect pants too and they can be tossed on the washer every few weeks.
Would they accept the rain ponchos that you can get at the dollar stores? They're adult size, but I think they'd cover a kiddo's body, and you could cut to fit maybe...
