I have some wonderful markers to tell you about. For the past few weeks we have been trying out markers called Magic Stix Washable Markers created by The Pencil Grip, Inc.
You probably already know how highly we think of the folks at The Pencil Grip, Inc. They make some amazing products for kids and adults. Over the past few years, we have reviewed some of their products such as Thin Stix tempera paints and Pencil Grip and Safety Scissors and have been impressed with everything they have sent us to review. We are excited to try out their newest creation Magic Stix Washable Markers.

How we used Magic Stix Washable Markers in our home:
We received a 24 pack of Magic Stix Washable Markers to use in our home for the purpose of writing this review.
There are so many great colors to work with for fun projects!
We have enjoyed using these markers in our home and schoolwork in a variety of ways:
- Wooden Airplane Projects
- Four Seasons Tree Project
- Toilet Paper Tube Projects
- Art Journal Book
- Schoolwork Unit Study
- ABC Worksheets
- Birthday Card
- Arts and Crafts
- Coloring pages
- and more
Here are a few of our projects:
Airplanes:
The kids had a lot of fun decorating wooden airplanes. This was a great “rainy day” project for some energetic boys. A few days later, when the rain had stopped and the ground was dry, they enjoyed flying and racing their planes outside. These planes can fly up to 25 feet!

Proud pilots!
Trees:
Another fun project the kids worked on was a Science and Art lesson creating trees of the 4 seasons.
These markers worked great outside on the back porch and remained fresh use after use, project after project.
The variety of colors was just perfect for this project and allowed for a lot of creative fun for this craft.
The final step (not pictured) is to cut out the trees, glue them to light-weight cardboard like a cereal box, and then glue all four sections together so that they make 1 tree with four sides. When the tree is turned, it shows the same tree in a different season.
Art Journals:
My daughter made some lovely art journals with the Magic Stix Washable Markers. She recycled cereal boxes for this project. I will post another story about how she made these.
These little books are so fun to make. Besides using these for art journals or writing journals, they would make wonderful ABC books for younger kids, or use to write a story book, or make them into prayer journals, and gifts too.
After assembling her journals, she decorated the outside covers with Magic Stix markers.
She will have a lot of fun filling these books with colorful thoughts and art projects.
She enjoyed using Magic Stix Washable Markers to make her art journals. They turned out so cute!
Final Thoughts:
My family has really enjoyed using these colorful markers. They are made of high quality, safe, and nontoxic materials. They are odor free, the color goes on evenly, and they feel good in your hand. This case of markers is a perfect addition to our home art supplies and on the go in our portable art kits. Give these markers a try as they will impress kids and parents alike!
