I want to paint my nephew a train for his birthday. One of those name trains were each piece hooks together.
What kind of paint would be best to use on it so that he can still play with it?
Would I have to do anything special to it to get the paint on it?
I'm worried he will stick it in his mouth and I want the paint to be non-toxic.

Also..this is an idea I have for my future bathroom. Please tell me if you think it is a good or bad idea and any tips you may have.
I want to take ceramic tiles and have everyone I know paint one. I then want to lay them in my bathroom and have that be my floor.
This is just an idea, so I have no idea what paint to use or if there is even special tiles for that. Would I have to gloss them and fire them after I paint them?
Any pointers would be nice.

Thanks!!

I have tons of the arcylic paint and I am soooo dying to paint something. Blarg.
