The Complete Box
The Complete Box is a wonderful tool for teachers and parents to use with children 3-6 years old. Children love the box activities because they are play-based and not seen as work. Yet, each activity has a special purpose for building fine motor skills. The Complete Box activities have small and large group application, but are great for individuals as well. The Complete Box contains 20 activites (approximately 30 items) and a User Reference Manual.

Rave Review
My Daughter was going to go to Kinder next year, but I decided to hold her back after feeling she was too young to go, and that she had alot of work to catch up on in her writing skills. I have been working with her at home. I also have "Get set for School" handwriting book, and am going to use that also. I went to my friends house tonight and we looked at the box that she uses with her son. I used it with her and my daughter there for 5 minutes, and her responce was GREAT!!! :) I knew we needed that ASAP!
Thank you,

Learn Letter and Number Formation Without Using a Pencil!
Children love to learn their letters and numbers! Learning to form letters and numbers correctly is key to eventual success in writing them. When children form letters with educational items such as Wikki Stix, they are focusing on the cognitive aspect of letter formation without involving the additional motor task of holding a pencil, which can sometimes be frustrating for new writers. Wikki Stix can be used on all surfaces - even vertical surfaces like walls, refrigerators, and washing machines. What a fun way to practice "writing" of letters! As educators and parents, it is important to remember that learning how to form letters correctly contributes to future efficient handwriting and writing.
Have a great week...Write Out of the Box!

Wikki Stix®
 Wikki Stix ® are fun, safe colorful strands of hand-knitting yarn enhanced with non-toxic wax. They are twistable, stickable and will adhere to any smooth surface (vertical is best!). The children can make shapes, numbers and letters simply by pressing the Wikki Stix ® onto a surface using their fingertips. No matter how many times they are manipulated, placed, removed or repositioned, they retain their ability to twist, bend and stick. They are endlessly re-usable.
This item is available in three color choices.
