My Project

As an elementary art teacher, messes are pretty common. With a tight schedule (no time between classes) I need materials that work well with different age groups and are easy to distribute and clean-up. Kwik-Stix thin, solid tempera sticks are the perfect solution. These thin, solid tempera paints allow students of different ages to create beautiful pieces of art with minimal clean-up. We have used the thicker version of these paints but the students were having difficulty painting smaller spaces in their work. The thin version of the Kwik-Stix would allow the students to successfully complete their smaller pieces of art with very little clean-up time.
