Be Your Grandkids’ Favorite Science Teacher With Wikki Stix!


Be Your Grandkids’ Favorite Science Teacher With Wikki Stix!

Back-to-school for the grandkids…most likely, this fall. And you may be concerned that they have fallen behind without in-person instruction and classroom interaction over this long, challenging stretch.  And the STEM subjects, Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math are likely places where kids may have struggled.

wikki stixEnter Wikki Stix, the mistake-proof teaching tool and learning medium that makes the tough stuff FUN!

Kids are often intimidated by the STEM subjects and those may have been the hardest for parents to home-school.  Wikki Stix provides an engaging, hands-on way to help your grandkids catch up .. and create some fun bonding time in the process.

Made of non-toxic wax and yarn, they stick with just fingertip pressure to paper and other smooth surfaces… no glue, no paste, no mess!  And they are easy to peel up and reposition, so “mistakes” virtually disappear.  Perfect for those challenging STEM subjects.

And the Wikki Stix  STEM Pak provides lots of examples of science projects that kids will love to make…a flower cross-section…the human digestive system…continental drift… and a truly hands-on way to understand fractions.  Plus constellations… or the solar system. The ideas are endless… and sure to get an A+ for a science project!
