WikiStix – The Perfect Crafty Christmas Gift

November 10, 2011 by Shellie Wilson


We (my 2 and 4 year old kids) just had the pleasure of playing with WikiStix One of a kind Creatables . What are they? Literally sticks that stick. You can bend them, shape them, stick them to paper, stick them to themselves, stick them to anything to create a stickable creation.

We tested  played with 2 items The Activity Set  and the Tons of Fun pack (see details below) both retail for $16.95 and both of them have won Toy awards.  Both sets were great fun and we enjoyed playing and creating.  The kits come with activities to help guide your creativity such as dot to dots in the Activity set and Blank faces in the Tons of Fun pack. (plus heaps more)

If you are looking for a Christmas gift for a child 2+  you can’t go past either of these. The Ton’s Of Fun pack would be my favorite gift idea as it has so many things to keep your child occupied and the presentation of the pack makes it a perfect present for older children who can follow activities. If you just want to stick and mess (my 2 year old did) then you could even grab a simple stix pack that just contains the  WikiStix.

These stixs have so much potential as they are tactile and versatile making them perfect for sensory education, Home-schooling or a classroom (Check out their bulk packs 600 stix for $33.25)

Check out their website for great ideas and loads more activity packs including party favor kits and Alphabet learning packs.  I am a grown up and I had fun so imagine what kids will think!

To make gift giving easier Wikistix have created their own Christmas Gift Guide to help you select a product to suit your holiday needs.

 

  The Activity Set  $16.95 


Contains 84 Wikki Stix in 16 colors and two sizes (48- 8-inch and 36 -6-inch), plus multi-use playboard, handy storage bag and eight page booklet of fun ideas and illustrations. The Wikki Stix Activity Set is ideal for younger children, ages 3-5 or so, as there is no right or wrong way to play. They can use the playboard to learn letter formation…or simply “smoosh” the Wikkies down, and peel them back up!

 

 

 

Tons Of Fun pack $16.95

Happy Diwali Kids Elephant T-Shirt

This Happy Diwali kids T-shirt is a sweet and simple way to dress little ones for the Festival of Lights without going overly formal. With its cute elephant-inspired artwork and clean white shirt design, it feels festive, cheerful, and easy for children to wear.

There is something lovely about festive children’s clothing that is comfortable enough for real life. You know the kind — something they can wear to school celebrations, family visits, photos, food-filled gatherings, and still manage to run around in without anyone needing to adjust layers every five minutes.

This Happy Diwali kids T-shirt has that easy, cheerful feel.

The design features a cute elephant-style character in the centre, holding a little diya-style lamp, with soft floral detailing behind it and the words Happy Diwali printed in bold teal lettering. It has a sweet, child-friendly look without feeling too busy, which makes it a nice choice for families who want something festive but still practical.

The white shirt gives the design a fresh, clean background and helps the artwork stand out. It also makes it easy to pair with leggings, jeans, skirts, shorts, or even under a cardigan if the weather is a little cooler. For children who do not love dressing up in more formal outfits, this is a nice middle ground — still festive, still photo-friendly, but much easier to wear.

I especially like that this shirt works for a range of Diwali moments. It would be lovely for family gatherings, preschool or school cultural days, Diwali parties, temple visits where casual clothing is suitable, or as a cute outfit for festive photos. It also makes a thoughtful gift for children celebrating Diwali, especially if you want something wearable rather than another toy that ends up under the sofa by the end of the week.

The artwork feels bright and gentle, which suits younger children beautifully. It has that soft festive charm without being too loud, and the “Happy Diwali” wording is clear enough to read at a glance. That makes it a sweet option for family photos, classroom celebrations, or matching sibling outfits if you are buying more than one.

This would also pair nicely with simple handmade touches — a little paper diya craft, a children’s rangoli activity, or a festive card-making afternoon. Amazon is handy for easy giftable shirts and seasonal celebration items, while craft supplies for Diwali activities can be bundled in for a more personal handmade-style gift.

This Happy Diwali kids elephant T-shirt is a cute, wearable celebration piece for little ones. It is simple, cheerful, and practical — exactly the sort of festive clothing parents appreciate when there are snacks, photos, relatives, and excited children all happening at once.

Best for: children celebrating Diwali, school cultural days, family gatherings, festive photos, and casual Diwali outfits.

Why we like it: it is sweet, easy to wear, and festive without being fussy.

Where to wear it: Diwali parties, family dinners, school events, cultural celebrations, casual outings, and festive photo days.
