Stikbot Monsters: The Halloween Theme That Works All Year Long

Stikbot Monsters are a truly unique and fun Halloween offering that will remain useful all year long. A set of six monster figurines, this latest collection in the stop-motion series by Zing is arguably their most unusual, creative, and fun. Appealing to both boys and girls, the set features six uniquely shaped and colored characters that are just as bendable and stop-motion worthy (via suction cup feet) as a regular Stikbot.

Giggles is a shiny silver clown with green hair and a menacing grin. Aquafang is a blue sea creature with fins and scales that is very akin to the classic “creature from the black lagoon.” Kyron is a gold four-footed stikbot that strongly resembles centaurs of lore. Grim is a white skeletal figure with red eyes. Goblin is a green character with pointy ears and a mischievous grin. Finally, there is Insector who is a bright red, six-armed, spider-like mutant. Together, they make quite an image that will certainly get kids imaginations going when it comes to creating storylines for the characters. The series also comes with three “Mega Monsters”: a three-headed red dog named Cerberus (based on the Greek legend), a green ogre named Gigantus, and a blue winged dragon named Scorch.

Each of the small Stikbots retails for $4.99 and the three larger ones are $9.99. They are suitable for children ages four and older. With over 360 million views on YouTube, Stikbot continues to turn kids into creative stop-motion animation moviemakers, letting their imagination run wild. With the free Stikbot Studio app, available on iOS and Android, kids can snap individual photos and stitch them together into a film, complete with built-in music and sound effect options. Users can share their creations using #Stikbot and see what others are making all over the world!

The Stikbot Monster series is incredibly unique and certainly offers a lot of opportunities for creative play. To learn more, visit the official Stikbot website.

Testimonials

Lisa Pieper

I cannot thank you enough for supplying these talks. I am a special education teacher, PreK-6th grade, in Montana, USA. I am so grateful to have instruction and insight from so many experts available to me. Thank you also for providing the links for follow-up questions and diving deeper into their areas of expertise. This summit will make a difference in the way I approach
assessment, instruction, and intervention in my classroom, as well as how I collaborate with my general education colleagues and parents. All that and I am only halfway through day 1!

I am impressed with your hard work and your immense curiosity, passion, and determination to execute this summit at this hour when the world is battling. All the lectures were well organized and planned, and cherry on top well lined up! The best feedback I want to tell you is I was so woven with the lectures that I managed to complete them on the designated days! I was so glued to all the lectures that I carried my screen and hands-free to the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom to complete them and generate notes to share with my colleagues and apply them at work.

I am thrilled to see a conference hosted by an Indian parenting website that has brought together renowned names in the various fields of parenting. Not only are the presenters known, but the topics have also been curated to give parents practical ways to better themselves. Areas like resilience, social-emotional well-being, skilling for adolescents,
etc. are relevant and needed areas of discussion. I got to see a preview of a session on mindfulness by Christopher Willard and was impressed with the ease with which Devishobha guides the discussion to the needs of the Indian parent community. I am
looking forward to listening to more of the speakers during the conference.

Devishobha has been a great collaborator with my organization on behalf of preventing child abuse. She has been brilliant at getting simple, effective, and actionable advice and tools to parents. She brings together the best people in an easy-to-access online format. It is so unusual to work with someone who has a sense of quality and accessibility for parents!

I would like to thank you very much for holding the special kid's international summit. I had applied to more than 20 alternative schools all over India two years ago for my son's admission, but nothing worked out. I knew the existing school was not good enough for him. I felt frustrated and could not understand what plans God had for me. However I am very grateful to you for making me aware of so many aspects, now my son has got admission to a school specially meant to teach children like him, in New Jersey and my son is very happy.

I am an avid researcher regarding parenting techniques, especially for complex or spirited children, and have already found this summit so helpful. I especially loved Bonnie Harris’s piece. Thank you for bringing all of these great resources to the world in a way we can easily access.

It was a very insightful experience. As a preschool teacher, I can relate to the importance of the early years, which can have a lifelong impact on our children. Thank you for bringing us to this summit.
