Hi Evelyn, you can use latex or acrylic on the blocks and for tips on painting them you may find this video useful - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOQM2XyMUco
The Outdoor Living paint from DecoArt may be a good choice. I haven't used it on cement blocks but it worked well on my planters and the colors are really pretty.
I think you could use any paint as long as its rated for outdoors. It may have to be oil based.
