What craft products are safe?

Hey all,
My son is starting pre kindy next year.
What is the best paint to use for finger painting and also glue sticks (or anything else I’m not thinking of)? His skin reacts to most things we’ve tried, so I was wondering if anyone knows of a safe brand/product to take to the school that I haven’t thought of yet.

    1. Hi Briana, I have found some products. I am still looking, school doesn't start until the start of the year here is Aus. Thank you for the links 😀

      1. Hi Emma,
        I know this may be a late reply, but I found two articles that had some suggestions -- https://www.thetot.com/baby/guide-to-non-toxic-art-supplies/

        Did you find a product or are you still looking? I hope the articles help - Moderator
