Remember pick-up sticks? That game with the multicolored straws that
your brother always cheated at? Now Beyond Learning, which manufactured
the world’s first eco-friendly games back in 2006, has transformed this
family favorite into a reading readiness game for preschoolers.
Created from eco-friendly, sustainable bamboo, the Pick-Up Words sticks
are veggie-ink printed with rainbow colors and basic, non-phonetic
sight words like “write,” “friend” and “these” that kids need to master
in order to read. Easy to stow in a backpack or bag, the game comes in
a tube made from recycled and FSC (Forest Stewardship Council)
certified paper and formaldehyde-free glue, which is printed with
vegetable inks.
The game is perfect to play with parents or older siblings, providing they stay honest.
