500pcs Sawtooth Popsicle Sticks for Crafts - 300 Colored & 200 Wood Color Craft Sticks for Kids Creativity Project, Classroom Teaching, Family Activities

My grandson likes to built with popsicle sticks. The notches help keep his project together until he gets it too big or tall. The sticks need to be glued together at some point in order to build a structure over 12 inches tall or larger. Otherwise, color is good, some sticks splinter, but most are smooth.

My students really enjoyed building different structures with their parents.

These are amazing to use in the classroom. The ridges cut into them give the kids a little more flexibility with building and engineering. The kids love the color as well. As a teacher I like that they come sorted in packs of 50. Only change I'd make is fewer colors so there are more of individual ones.

I got these for my nephew and he absolutely loves them. I grew up playing with these also and still get the nostalgia when I’m playing with it today.

This is now the second time I purchased these craft sticks. The first package was for a class project at my son's school. We were making snowflakes, glued together, which worked perfectly with the cutout patterns. I noticed a lot of sticks were broken, but thought it may have just been the batch. Since we had enough sticks for the children to complete their craft, I just overlooked.Fast forward to August, 2020, I buy the package again. My son has an obsession with Friday the 13th and Halloween Movies so we wanted to make a cabin for Crystal Lake. Again, many of the sticks are unusable, and the cuts are not even so when you put the sticks together, you have inconsistent spacing. These would work just fine if you were doing a project where it doesn't requiring interlocking, but if you are trying to do a project where they connect, I would probably suggest another brand. I used this type of cut out/interlocking craft stick as a kid and don't remember them being difficult to use, and I'm 40 now.I don't think I'll be giving this product a third try.

These arrived in great condition and exactly as described.

Sticks are very thin and narrow. Hard to get them to stay together because notches are shallow

Came shipped in little packs of 250 so it was great if you have little one you want to divide them up between. None were broken and the color didn't run.
