I am excited about this next project. I was able to get a paint stick for free when I went to Ace. I cut and sanded it to look like a sword.

Then, I painted it and added the shelf liner as a medium on the handle. It is the perfect size for little hands to grasp.

I also have learned that a few of the therapist here in Lake Havasu, AZ, have adopted the concept for the silicone hand animals. I am anxious to see what they report!
