My two-year old daughter (who is now married with 3 of her own) used a
permanent marker in herself. She looked lovely for such a long time!!!! So
very purple!
Of course, she had also painted herself at a much earlier age with a
substance she found in her diaper upon waking early from a nap. She was
quite put out when I removed said substance from her and her walls and her
crib! Now she's into photography - much safer I think. :-)
