Little hands, big ideas ✋🌈

Got a kid who can't sit still for five minutes? Hand them a bundle of bendy wax sticks and watch what happens.

In this hands-on workshop, kids aged 3–8 get to try Twisty Kids wax sticks, a new kind of craft that's soft, bendy and endlessly reusable. They'll learn to twist, bend and stick them into their own little masterpieces: animals, cars, rainbows, monsters and whatever else they dream up.

Best part? Kids take their creations home, and when they're ready for something new, they simply peel the sticks apart and start again.

What happens on the day

10:30 – Warm-up: we show the kids how to twist, bend and join the sticks, and they make their first simple shapes.
10:40 – Creative time: 40 minutes of making, with idea cards for every age and skill level.
11:20 – Show & tell: kids who'd like to can proudly share their creation with the group.

We finish by 11:30, which is perfect timing for lunch at one of the cafés and restaurants in Greenwood Plaza.

More than just fun

Strong hands before big pencils. Twisting, pinching and bending build the same small hand muscles kids need for holding a pencil at school.
Real focus, no screens. Open-ended making keeps kids absorbed without being told to concentrate.
Works for every age. Three-year-olds make simple shapes, and eight-year-olds build 3D creations. Everyone has a win.
