Looking for something inexpensive that will hold washable paint well. I want to do a project with kids that will not cause permanent damage. I tried canvas but I think it comes out a little too washed-out looking, plus even cheap canvases cost at least $1 each and I need a lot. I tried watercolor paper but it was too absorbent and the texture didn't go well with the poster paints. Oaktag is too flimsy feeling, I want it to have a nice feel so the kids can go home feeling like they made something of substance (hence the initial canvas attempt.)

Ideas/links, please!

None of those links meets my needs, but thanks for the research!
As sometimes happens, as soon as I give up my search and call for help, the right thing comes up. I THINK that what I'm looking for is mat board or backing board. I ordered a package of that on Amazon Prime so in a couple of days I should find out whether it fits the bill!

I think one of these is what you're looking for

They come in all different sizes and materials depending on what type of paint you're using. It's basically the feel and durability of canvas in a paper
