A super-creative, long-lasting, no-mess, take-it-anywhere, quiet-kid kit!
Everyone knows that drawing is the world's best quiet time activity. But for the youngest among us, it can be fraught with perils: crayons break, pencils need to be sharpened, leaky pens stain. And, let's face it, drawings always end up looking, well, kind of flat. What's a kid to do?
Enter Wax Strings, an everything-you-need activity kit that lets kids create art that jumps right off the page, if only an eighth of an inch. Think of the 56 brilliantly colored wax-dipped strings as re-usable drawing lines, just sticky enough to cling cooperatively, but never permanent and totally non-messy. Step-by-step wax string drawings (of spiders, spaceships, frogs, flowers, people, parrots and more) are illustrated at full size, so kids can simply lay the strings directly on top of the page to trace the art. For more free-style designs, the book's extended back cover makes an ideal work surface. There are plenty of non-drawing activities, too, including wax string writing, a make-your-own wax string super hero and wax string games (Sticky-Tac-Toe, anyone?).
Wax strings may well be the ultimate kid-friendly art supply, and we're thrilled to be offering them here. Because kids deserve more than just the same old line.
