      Okay - full disclosure I am a first grade teacher. The beginning of the year is mostly explaining that "no glue stick is not the same as chap stick" and the other half is "no you cannot use this to glue yourself to your seat". This pack of 60 is great for my classroom and Elmer is the best out there. The purple is great because it allows students to actually see how much glue they are using. I bought this to give out as gifts for Valentine's day to my students, but it would be a great gift to give to a teacher as well.

      I recently had the opportunity to try the glue sticks that are perfect for kids' arts and crafts projects, and I must say, they are truly fantastic! These glue sticks have quickly become a staple in our household, as we use them often and they never disappoint.

      One of the things I love most about these glue sticks is how easy and convenient they are to use. The twist-up design allows for a smooth and controlled application, making it simple for kids to use without any mess or fuss. The glue sticks glide effortlessly onto paper, cardboard, and other craft materials, ensuring that everything stays securely in place.

      The packaging of these glue sticks is also worth mentioning. They come in a compact and sturdy container that is not only aesthetically pleasing but also practical. The packaging keeps the glue sticks protected and prevents any accidental spills or leaks, which is a huge plus, especially when working with kids.

      Speaking of kids, these glue sticks are perfect for their arts and crafts projects. Whether they are working on school assignments or creating their own masterpieces at home, these glue sticks are a reliable choice. They provide a strong bond that holds everything together, giving kids the confidence to showcase their creativity.

      Clean-up is also a breeze with these glue sticks. Unlike traditional liquid glue, there is no need to worry about sticky messes or waiting for glue to dry. The glue sticks dry quickly and leave no residue behind, allowing kids to move on to the next step of their project without any delays or frustrations.

      Overall, I highly recommend these glue sticks for any arts and crafts enthusiast, especially for kids. They are easy to use, convenient, and provide a reliable bond. The mess-free packaging and quick drying time make them a great choice for any project. So go ahead and grab a pack of these glue sticks for your next creative endeavor. You won't be disappointed!
