Thin Stix Creativity Pack from The Pencil Grip, Inc.: A TOS Crew Review

Thin Stix Creativity Pack from The Pencil Grip, Inc.
We LOVE our new - Thin Stix Creativity Pack from The Pencil Grip, Inc.! We have been long-time fans of these no-mess paints, and now it's even better with 24 colors in one pack! Each Thin Stix is a self-contained painting tool. All you need to do is take off the cap and paint - no brushes, no water and NO MESS. Can I hear the amen from the moms? These handy pens are filled with solid tempera paint that drys in 90 seconds. They paint on a wide variety of surfaces - like paper, wood and cardboard easily. The Creativity Pack has 24 colors, the 12 basics, PLUS 6 metallic and 6 neon colors. This is taking creativity to a whole new level...

The Metallic colors are a new family favorite - the little bit of sparkle brings the colors to life.

The Neons are bold and bright!

Thin Stix are thinner than the Kwik Stix for better control. They are designed for ages 3+ (but, completely non-toxic, just in case) ALL of my testers love them. They go on smooth, and are very easy to use. In fact, my testers claim painting has never been more fun.

We couldn't wait to use them! I love how they are mess-free (see...she's painting on the carpet - it's where we do school most days, excuse the mess) My testers have even taken these on road trips and painted in the van - check out my review from last summer.

The ways to use them are only as limited as their imagination. My testers were assigned to create a "coat of arms" that described themselves for our Co-op history class. All ages - grades 3rd -12th. Fortunately, this treasure had just arrived -Thin Stix to the rescue.

They really are good for all ages - my SENIOR loved using them just as much as the younger students.

The end result was something they could be proud of. The new metallics were the perfect touch. The colors are vibrant, cover completely, and don't smudge like markers can.

With the holidays around the corner, these would make an excellent gift or stocking stuffer! They are truly a must-have in the homeschool supply chest.
