Prevent Tempera paint from chipping?

I painted on my backpack with tempera paint, and its already started to start chipping off. Is there any way to keep the paint on more permanently?

Answer:

tempera paint with NEVER stop chipping. All paints has something called a binder, which is it's main ingredient from which it was made. Tempera is a poor quality paint whose binder is egg yolk. This is why it chips when dried. Tempera paint is common among children since they have no real talent for painting and tempera is a lot cheaper (due to chipping) so its perfect for them. No sense in wasting expensive quality paint on them unless its highschool possibly 8th grade and up. If your making quality art work try acrylic, it's more expensive but worth it
