Great idea for the work with children. I´m sure I´ll try this to craft at school. I have 8 years old children in my class. Maybe the first step is a liitle bit difficult. But I´ll be there for helping. :-)

Is it necessary to colour both sides of the plastic? I don´t think.

How long does it need to dry?

@liebemomo1 hi thanks for commenting. yes great for that age. i painted one side but if you have labels touch up where youlike on the other side. just air dry. i used acrylic paint it went on fine.just student quality.

goodluck with making them love to see them if you do.
