My Project

I would love to provide my students with more hands-on art tools. Every school year, a classroom favorite is Kwik Stix paint sticks. This is by far my most favorite art tool. They are quick drying and so easy to use. My littles cannot get enough of these magical paint sticks! They truly solve the dilemma of worry filled paint with mess-free fun! Kwik Stix are similar to a glue stick, the more you twist, the more it goes up. We would also love to add jumbo washable markers because they are perfect for chubby little fingers and so fun to use! Rainbow scratch art is another classroom favorite, year after year. Every child is an artist and the outcome always looks so magical.

Kwik Stix paint sticks empower and encourage students to experiment with the endless opportunities the colors provide!

All of these art tools come in a rainbow of colors. Not only do the colors come with a variety of options, but these colors can be overlapped, masked and mixed to create any color imaginable. We will be creating art and working on our fine motor and prewriting skills by using these tools. Please help us add more of these wonderful art tools to our classroom supply!
