I think there are bathtub-friendly crayons and paints available, to be non-staining to porcelain and vinyl.
I'm also looking into getting a large tarp and laying a sheet or a water-resistant tablecloth on top of it (or maybe just a vinyl tablecloth?) for the carpet, and doing sand or cornmeal play (and also playdough play) on top of that. A is still very oral-explore-y though. So no sand or cornmeal yet, except at playgroup where they're normally separated. (M and A both grab toys from each other; I'm trying to reinforce, "you have to offer something in exchange, AND ACCEPT A NO. NO MEANS NO.")
