We love the Thin Stix and I was excited when I learned we would receive Thin Stix Creativity Pack from The Pencil Grip, Inc. to review!
The package arrived quickly, and we were not disappointed!
Look at all those great colors! The 24-pack comes with the 12 colors in the Kwik Stix 12-pack
and also includes 6 metalic colors
and 6 neon colors!
When separated in these photos, it seems easy to tell which colors are which, but when in use the colors get rearranged, and it becomes a little difficult to tell which are which.
As we used the Thin Stix it became an adventure, finishing each picture and tipping it to see the metalic colors shimmer, or seeing the neon colors pop out against the original colors!
We did some abstract, some nature...
My son found it relaxing to attempt a mountain scene with mountains reflecting in the lake.
These Thin Stix are great fun, and a great way to do no-mess kids' art! For mom they can be a refreshing break, either to let the kids do a no-mess art project, or for mom to sit down and do art with the kids.
Thin Stix are tempera paint in a stick, and they dry in 90-seconds! They are non-toxic, so safe for your littles who long to be part of your home school activities. They can be used on paper, cardboard, wood... use your imagination! They can be used for pictures, which is what we did, or for borders, or even picture frame embellishment! There are so many possibilities! I love this set so much more than only having a Thin Stix 6-Pack of Classic Colors!
I do miss being able to read a label stating the color... I thought one was brown, only to end up with a purple tree trunk... And these fun paint sticks are not as precise as painting with a paint brush, so they can challenge the patience of a perfectionist child. It was a growing opportunity in our home as we enjoyed using the Thin Stix while learning their capabilities and their limitations. We are really enjoying them!
