About Twisty Kids

Twisty Kids was created with one simple belief:
childhood should be hands-on, creative, and connected — not dominated by screens.

We design reusable, screen-free play tools that help children build fine motor skills, confidence, focus, and imagination through real, tactile play.

At the heart of Twisty Kids are our reusable wax sticks — simple, mess-free creative tools that children can bend, twist, wrap and shape again and again. No glue. No batteries. No noise. Just open-ended creativity.

Why We Created Twisty Kids

Twisty Kids was founded by an Australian mum who experienced firsthand how challenging it can be to keep children engaged — at restaurants, while travelling, during quiet time at home, or between school activities.

Like many parents, I wanted something that:

✓ Keeps little hands busy
✓ Builds fine motor skill development
✓ Supports handwriting readiness
✓ Encourages independent play
✓ Doesn't create waste
✓ Doesn't rely on screens

What began as a simple travel solution became something much bigger — a tool loved by families, educators, and therapists.

More Than Craft. A Learning Tool.

Our reusable wax sticks are not just craft supplies.

They are used for:

  • Fine motor skills activities
  • Preschool craft activities
  • Occupational therapy sessions
  • Autism sensory activities
  • Classroom manipulatives
  • Preschool STEM activities
  • Handwriting practice for preschoolers
  • Sensory play and adaptive learning materials
  • Tactile learning for visually impaired students

By twisting, shaping, and building, children strengthen the small muscles in their hands — building the foundation for writing, cutting, dressing independently, and everyday confidence.

Sustainable by Design

Twisty Kids is committed to creating eco-friendly toys and sustainable learning tools.

Our reusable wax sticks are designed to be used again and again — reducing waste compared to disposable craft supplies. We prioritise thoughtful packaging, long-lasting materials, and products that grow with your child.

We believe sustainability and joyful childhood can go hand in hand.
