Stick-lets

‘Because Mother Nature Misses us’

Sticklets offer an easy way to build a cubby, tipi, fort etc indoors or outdoors. Sticklets are flexible and reusable silicone ‘joiners’ of 12 pieces (pairs of 6 design options) to choose from , depending on what you are building and the thickness of the sticks being joined, the joiners are colour coded to indicate the type of joiner to make finding the one you need easy. The enclosed flyer clearly shows ideas for what kind of join each joiner can achieve for your building.

Doweling from a hardware shop is recommended for indoor cubby building, whilst when out in nature it’s fun to go fossicking and find natural sticks of suitable length and thickness to create a temporary shelter or play house (pack them in a bag for camping or bushwalking), being brightly coloured they can be easily found to repack in their calico bag when ready to move on and abandon the sticks. 

Tip: If planning to make a tipi indoors, have a couple of sheets handy to make walls.

Building cubby houses involves critical thinking, creative planning, problem solving, and cooperative engagement,  

Ability: Recomended for children age 6 - 10 

Safety: the Stick-let joiners, and the playhouses they build are not suitable for under 3, not intended for chewing or mouthing. Not suited for weight bearing or weight suspending.
