Paint Set

The paint set or painting easel is a recurring activity in JumpStart games.

In both versions of JumpStart Kindergarten, before the picture can be colored, Mr. Hopsalot tells the user that they have to click on the drawing which does not belong (with either dinosaurs, sea creatures, space, sports, or the circus).

Trivia

In both versions of JumpStart Kindergarten, pink is in the original version and purple is in the updated version. Only blue and green come in light and dark; the rest of the colors are just plain.
There are colors to mix for five paint tubes in the original JumpStart 1st Grade and three paint tubes in JumpStart 2nd Grade. Here are examples of mixing colors: blue and yellow make green, yellow and red make orange, red and blue make purple.
