NOT Wiki Stix despite reviews.

I think these may be incorrect reviews as they are all luminous and they are all around the same date. These sticks are fine, but they are categorically NOT the same as Wiki-Stix. They're not as sticky, so my daughter's little sculptures aren't as durable and fall apart much more easily. Whether the Wiki-Stix is worth the extra money is up to you. But don't think you will get the same with this one.

  • Price

  • Minor things

Great sensory activity with no mess

I have a 2 year old. I had to be busy flying for four hours. He doesn't watch TV and gets bored easily. It was sent from God because they kept him engaged and creative. Great product because they give sensory time without causing a lot of chaos. I've even had fun creating shapes with them, and the best part is that after you've done something, you can straighten them back out to create something new. This pack was amazing for the amount of color it had. Just wax and rope. Quite easy. Also…

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Available in white only

Bought these for my special touch tutorial recently as they have been using Wikki sticks all summer and love them! Bought because of the great price for 500 sticks. After opening it and giving it to my students, I was disappointed. They are much smaller and thinner than regular Wikki Sticks. They also don't bend or stick easily. For my classroom goals in the future, I'll probably spend a few bucks more and buy Wikki Sticks instead as they better suit my specific needs.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Nobody has fun with these

My 4.5 year old got these for Christmas and wasn't thrilled after unwrapping them. We sat down with her and our 7 year old to demonstrate it and it really isn't fun. Individual strings are very thin and seem brittle. They don't curve in smooth curves, but rather form sharp corners and need to be changed and adjusted several times. They don't stick without a significant amount of smoothing and smoothing. In the end the kids just wove a few together and used them as pretend twizzlers and stopped…

  • Free for educational purposes
Cons

Endless fun for everyone

I didn't buy or use Wiki Stix before buying it so I can't make an exact comparison but from what I have I would say that they are great! Despite the reviews I got it. The sticks are thin, but the amount of wax applied allows for multiple uses. And with the right maneuvering, they can stand and stand for a while, with the right balance and more. What impresses me the most is the number of sticks received. Each color is individually wrapped so it was easy for me to split all the colors in half…

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure
