Whenever you need some time to yourself, whether to work or relax, pull out the magic wax. Bendaroos and Wikki Stix can provide hours of entertainment for kids. No preparation is necessary so these toys can be used for quick projects or extended play. All you need is a comfortable chair, a clean surface and your child’s imagination. Let them build structures or monsters, masks, make self portraits or form the alphabet with these safe, reusable sticks. Help your children make a list of things to create and then have them work on their ideas gradually until it’s time to make a new list!

If you’re looking to spend quality family fun time with your children then Bendaroos and Wikki Stix are a perfect choice of activity. Your children will love showing you how to use this magic wax. Enjoy an abstract art session with your little ones or find a way to make it educational–pick some countries and try to form their flags. Whatever you do, have fun and take pictures of all your creations.

Best of all, clean up is simple and the children can do it themselves.

Unpretentious boxes, egg cartons and wrapping paper tubes are a popular pastime in our household. Along with these cardboard wonderments the standards rank well: puzzles, playdoh, blocks, paints, crayons and now the bendable magic waxes Bendaroos, Wikki Stix, Wax Works.

Bendable Wax Crafts

These moldable toys are similar to playdoh and seem to be an ideal mix of toy and craft. Watching children play with Bendaroos, Wikki Stix or Wax Works makes you realize there are no boundaries to the imagination of a young mind. Toys and activities that are based on arts and crafts have proven to develop a child’s intelligence and creativity. Bringing their visions to life helps them improve motor skills, analysis, perception, concentration, hand eye coordination and much more.

We have found the benefits go beyond helping our children’s physical and mental growth. Creative pursuits such as Bendaroos and Wikki Stix tend to occupy our children for hours on end. This allows us frazzled caregivers some much needed time to get things done. Better yet, these magic waxes give us the opportunity for fun, high quality play time where we can be one of the kids with our most precious loved ones.
