From now on, I will always have these stocked in the kids arts and crafts drawer. They look and feel like jumbo glue sticks but they smoothly apply paint across the paper instead of glue.The range of colors is impressive and they show up on any color paper (even black) plus the "paintings" dry in minutes. Clean up is no harder than markers. Match all the caps and use a wet rag to wipe down surfaces. I highly recommend these.

I hate doing art because its messy. Well these sticks take the mess out of art with the k-1st graders i currently work with. I am so glad Kwik Stix added these additional colors because we needed light pink for pigs and various blues for making sea creatures and more shades of browns. We need more variety than the orignal pack offered.What makes these sticks so great it they dry so fast, its like using a glue stick, you can see through most colors, no paint brushes or water bowls to clean! We even use them for coloring not just art time. Gets the most reluctant students to color. I am recommending these to everyone who works with young kids but as an adult, I love to use them too.

These paints operate similar to, and have the consistency of, a glue stick, but colors are bright. Doesn’t make a mess and boo-boo’s can be wiped off most surfaces.

I love these paint sticks for the classroom. They are easy to use and the students don't make a mess with paint. They are about the size of glue sticks. I recommend them for young children.

I love these! The colors are vibrant, coverage is perfect and they are blendable. So much better than other brands on the market.

Kwik Stix are great for home and in the classroom. You can use them on paper, wood and cardboard. Dries to the touch within minutes. Colors are bright and thick. They are so easier to use than liquid tempera. No mess to clean up. The 30 box count has the best variety of colors and the box itself is sturdy and the lid lifts off which is great for storing the Kwik Stix.

This was a quick contour selfie drawn on top of dry Tempera Stix. The colors are sheer, intense, and dry quickly, leaving a smooth layer to draw on (Uni-ball here). They don't blend or spread with water on paper, but I haven't tried them on other surfaces..

These are the best! My kids spend so much time drawing with them, which they aren’t likely to do with markers or crayons. And these aren’t messy like real paint. I recommend to everyone with kids.
