How and what do I get my 3-4 year olds to paint on a tile?

I have to do a tile-painting with my nursery class and I have no idea what to get them to paint. They can’t paint anything in particular and everytime I get them to paint something on the drawing paper, they just filled the whole paper with paint.. This is of course good for their fine-motor, but this tile-painting is for an art gallery so it has to be good..

If you have a Curry’s Art shop, that would be a good place to shop at. Get them to paint peppers or something they’d like. My suggestion would be red hot peppers. 3 of them. It would look cool. Side by side, ya know?
