STICK-LETS help us reconnect with nature through imaginative and open play. They're flexible, durable, reusable and weather-resistant connectors made of silicone (from sand!). They come in lots of colors - each a different size/shape. With Stick-Lets, children can learn to create and build at a young age. They work brilliantly for team building events, parties, camps and school yards.  How to use: STICK-LETS each have 2, 3, or 4 eyes - into which you put sticks or branches, doorknobs, table or chair legs to create your own design. Build indoors or outdoors. Make tents by pulling fabric through the eyes.
