    Hard to pick just one but I think it's going to have to be glue sticks for us -- the immediate stick is a must for my 3 yr old.

    Great book! It would be wonderful for my Montessori classroom, since I teach art/crafts and could use new ideas! I am a grandma too, so the ideas would come in handy there! Favorite item for the students? paint! Favorite item for the grandkids? washable markers :)

    my favorite arts and crafts supply - that's a hard one since I'm not very crafty per say. Probably sticks. I think you can do a lot with sticks - including make them into things or use them to paint. Does that count?
