The Mödling Stick - Get yours Now!







“The Mödling Stick”

Bring some joy to the ones you, and to your neighbours in the world, at Christmas. A present that really means something, has been proven over hundreds of thousands of years, and has recently been placed in the New York Museum of Toys having been voted Number One Toy of all time by some 35,000 Americans

It needs no batteries, lasts for years, it has immense educational and creative value. Is totally environmentally safe and recycles itself

It requires something that is in short supply, a little imagination. However many young kids have been found in scientific tests to have a certain amount of imagination – enough to make a variety of amusing toys giving hours of entertainment from this one simple thing.

See our website for more details on how to use the product, the history of the stick, videos of sticks in use

note:- all proceeds paid into this bank account from
Memberships, Stick Sales and Christmas TripleAHitsong will go towards the
Blue Sky Stuff – Books for Kids project
bringing great English reading books to young kids in cities in the world
( 1900 cities, 190 countries targeted 2008 – with repeat sales 2009 onwards to renew and extend ).

Small print:- in order to save on transport and shipping, we have enabled you to have a localised virtual “Mödling Stick” anywhere in the world – for example based on Palm trees in Irak. Simply print off this page, pay 9.95 units of your currency into the bank account below, and place a locally collected stick into a small paper sack with this sheet. Guaranteed to bring thousands of years of enjoyment, and in years to come will probably used as coal to keep a family warm at Xmas
