I purchased this for a road trip and was so pleased that despite its simplicity (waxed yarn, who knew??), it kept the kids (2 and 5 at the time) entertained for a good amount of time. I wish I had purchased the kind that come in a tube because dirt and fuzz are kryptonite to wiki stix. Be sure to put the stix away in a closed container or their lifespan will be significantly diminished. One small annoyance is that wiki stix do leave a little bit of a residue on your hands after playing with them.

I am always on a hunt for the holy trinity of airplane toys: quiet, lightweight, keeps the kid occupied for a good long while. Wikki Stix (which are wax-covered string) are it! My preschooler enjoyed playing with them on the airplane, and when we reached our destination, her older cousins loved playing with them too. They can be re-used many times.

This set comes with a bunch of the Stix and also cardboard cards where you can practice making basic shapes and combining basic shapes. My daughter was not interested in the cards and neither were her older cousins. So next time I think I would get a big set with more Stix and no cards.

Great accessory kit... it doesn't come with a ton of wikki stix but it is fun for the kids... played for hours with it. We bought the big box set of 500 so this was a great addition. Would probably be fine for one child.
