bend your imagination with bendastix :: review and giveaway

Ok, mom confession time. I HATE board games. Like, really really hate them. I have seriously considered hiding all the ‘special cards’ in Candy Land so that I don’t have to face the mental anguish of being three spaces from the finish line and drawing the dreaded gingerbread man card. Don’t even get me started on Chutes & Ladders. All due respect to Milton Bradley, but I am not that mom. So when our BENDASTIX Big Box kit arrived, I was a bit on edge. But from the moment we opened the box until I finally convinced my kiddos four days later that maybe we should take a little break, we ALL had fun creating and re-creating everything from funky glasses to silly monsters to super cute bracelets.

bendastix2My mom thought these crafty sticks looked like “souped-up pipe cleaners.” And she was right. Think 1985 minus the super pokey ends and endlessly shedding fuzzy pieces and you get the idea. BENDASTIX are “soft and squishy” pieces that come in a variety of shapes and sizes and can be twisted and bent and curled into anything you can think to create.

The best part was, I was having just as much fun as my little ones. Your imagination can run wild as you bend and re-bend your BENDASTIX into whatever your mind can visualize. I had fun, they had fun, and most importantly, I did not have to play any ‘mom tricks’ to redirect the fun elsewhere. And even though their target age group is 6 & up, my 3 year old had a great time playing and creating in his own way too! These craft kits are affordably priced from $6.99 to $19.99 and are a sure way to get your kids to stretch their originality and have a blast in the process. Hey, you might even have fun, too.
