Stockmar Modeling Beeswax - PARTY ACTIVITY/FAVOR
Children can model and form their own little bowl, flower, or animal figure and take it home as a favor! We love Stockmar's beeswax modeling wax for its transparent, color enhancing nature, marvelous beeswax aroma and therapeutic qualities. By kneading rhythmically children develop their fine motor skills. Shaping this sculpturing material also promotes imagination and a feeling for form. Ideas for modeling subjects can come from hearing a story while children hold and knead the wax in their toasty hands. Germany.
