Martha:

I think poster paint is the kind you can buy in big bottles for kids from just about anywhere.

You've got me stumped on the PVA glue, though.

I was curious so I googled it and I found this "PVA (Polyvinyl acetates) are probably the most common adhesive on the market. They come in a variety of formulas, all ever so slightly different, and specific to what they are designed to glue." here.

So, it could be anything from white "Elmer's" glue to yellow "carpenter's glue" depending on your project.

Yes, PVA is generally considered basic white (or yellow) craft glue.

Also, poster paint and tempera paint are the same thing. You will more often find it sold as tempera (either liquid or powdered).

liquid poster paint - tempera
