The Wikki Stix Book of Wiggles, Squiggles & Curlicues

This kept my 34 month old daughter occupied during a recent long plane trip. I was able to pull out the Wikki Stix again and again when she got bored or restless. It's nice and compact, not messy, and quiet. These will be a go to toy for us again. I highly recommend it.

My son has been asking me for bendaroos for the longest time so i got him these since they are pretty much the same thing. i believe the only difference is that the wikkistix have an adhensive quality that lets them stick to glossy books or other shiney surfaces. the book included is very amusing and give kids creative ways to use the wikkistix. for example there is a page with under water scenery with seaweed and such and you use the wikkistix as if they are seaweed and create other under water critters or scenery. my son wraps them around his pencils, toys, and uses them in other books. overall he has a lot of fun with them and it allows him to express some creativity. the other day he made me "heart balloons" with them. my 2yo mimics what he does and they can play together easily without fighting over them since there are many.

I got this for my best friends little girl when she turned 4 years old in February. She absolutely loves these Wikki Stixs and spends hours creating interesting things with them.
