National Wildlife Day- September 4th!

Celebrate National Wildlife Day on September 4th! Take some time to craft your favorite wild animals and appreciate their existence! You can use Kwik Stix, Wonder Stix, and Magic Stix to enhance your creativity! 
 
Kwik Stix are tempera paint sticks that dry in just 90 seconds. They are great additions to the classroom! No cups, brushes, water, or smocks needed. Due to Kwik Stix fast drying feature, students can bring home projects the same day! 
 
Wonder Stix are the multi-surface writers. Wonder Stix can be easily wiped off of white boards, mirrors, windows, and more! They are permanent on surfaces like wood, paper, and cardboard. Wonder Stix are dust free and odorless.
 
Magic Stix are vibrant triangular markers. Forgot to put the cap back on? Don't worry because Magic Stix last 7 days without the cap before drying out! An added bonus to Magic Stix is their triangular shape. Not only will Magic Stix not roll off your desks while you're working, but the triangular shape helps to promote grip and handwriting!
