Did you know that Wikki Stixs are made in the USA? From their website….
“Wikki Stix One-of-a-Kind Creatables are Made in the USA! Further more, all children’s products made in this country are required by the Consumer Product Safety Commission to undergo regular, periodic testing, checking for such things as toxicity and lead. We again, as we always have received the certification that Wikki Stix conform to the safety standards set by the Commission and conform to ASTM D-4236, the art material safety standard.
In addition to assuring you that there is nothing toxic nor lead-bearing in our product, we would also like to advise those of you dealing with allergy situations, that Wikki Stix do not contain latex, gluten, nor any peanut or other nut oils or byproducts. Wikki Stix are made of acrylic hand-knitting yarn (the kind you’d use to knit baby booties!) and a food-grade, microcrystalline wax, derived from the petroleum refining process. This wax is also used in lipsticks, bubble gum and as a covering for certain cheeses.
We are very happy to share this information with you, and hope that it will help you even more fully enjoy your selection of Wikki Stix One-of-a-Kind Creatables! If you have questions on any of the foregoing, please don’t hesitate to contact me personally.

Compare this with Bendaroos, and their F rating from the BBB. I am not sure I would trust a company that has an F rating from a the Better Business Bureau to manufacture things in the China.
What about you? Personally, I am going to buy the Wikki Sitx!
