Awards Entries Paint Sticks

Mums everywhere love our Paint Sticks!

So what an exciting week we have had at Little Brian HQ! We found out that we were awarded the Highly Commended prize in this year’s Mums Choice Awards for the category of Best Toys for Creative Play below £20!

To say we are over the moon is an understatement and we are very proud that not only is our awards cabinet fit to burst but Paint Sticks is making wave after wave within the toy industry!

The Mums Choice Awards is a great award to just be a part of but to actually win reinforces how brilliant Paint Sticks are! The awards take place each year and are designed to give parents a clear insight into what products are favoured by other parents – so really, along with children, the people we want to impress and it’s great to see that Paint Sticks is doing just that!

Our sales and marketing director Lara couldn’t believe it when she found out and said: “We’re delighted to be able to once again prove just how fantastic Paint Sticks are and to be recognised by parents, one of the products core target audience, is a huge achievement.

“Paint Sticks are perfectly priced at just £14.99 for our Assorted Pack and so for this to also be identified within the category reinforces the fact Paint Sticks are great value for money and perfect for a Christmas or birthday present or just a pocket money treat!”

So, with Christmas just around the corner, Paint Sticks can make a perfect Christmas present or even just something to let the kids play with to keep them entertained over the festive period!

Pick up your pack today from Toys R Us and Toy Master or have it delivered to the comfort of your own home via Amazon.co.uk.

Paint Sticks

Create your very own bonfire!

Bonfire Night, one of our favourite nights of the year! Fireworks, toffee apples, sparklers and so much more, we love it!

Ahead of the popular night, we’ve a little activity to keep the children busy so you can bring Bonfire Night and fireworks to your very own front room.

As you may know, with Paint Sticks, there’s plenty of different techniques whether it be stamping, scraping, dotting or blending.

For this task we’re going to be using the scraping technique in three simple steps!

Step 1
Fill a sheet of paper, it doesn’t matter on the size, with plenty of colourful patterns.

Step 2
Take the Black Paint Stick and colour all of the patterns and page in black, don’t worry if it seems odd, it will look amazing once it’s finished!

Step 3
Now, the fun part! Take a scraper tool, whether it be the base of the Paint Stick, paperclip or something else and scrape designs into the black paint!

They can be anything you like, inner Van Gogh’s can be released and go wild! Once you’ve finished scraping, your Bonfire masterpiece is complete! And of course, with no mess in sight!
