I was pretty much stuck in painting limbo during this time last year when most of my kids were that age.
Just do painting in different ways. they are also good with brushes already around that age. I also did sponge stamps from the dollar store and then let the kids stamp using paint.
another thing is to get a rectangular plastic container....put a piece of construction paper in the bottom, then put a dab of paint in the center and let the kids pretend to drive a car through the paint....or let them roll a ping pong ball around the container to make a spider painting......
Also...go to the dollar store and get Bingo dabbers in every colour...give the kids construction paper and let them dab away. The kids love the dabbers at that age. Just make sure they are wearing smocks
Magic markers on paper are also pretty exciting for them and stickers
