“My 5-year-old finds the Stix a nice way of calming down at bedtime and enjoys spending his stars on new items for his character. We’re enjoying the Calming Down and Sleep activities at the moment. He often gives me one Stix so we can do the activities together, which is a nice way of bonding.”

“We recently purchased Stix Plus and we love it!! Kai loves the new activities — especially the sleep ones. They’ve made such a positive impact on his bedtime routine and ability to fall asleep by himself. I personally like the building confidence activities. Stix is easily one of the best things we’ve ever purchased for our son.”

“Very good service. Everyone at Stix has been very helpful and the trade-in upgrade was really easy to go through. My girls love the new activities. Thank you, Stix!”
💙 Kai’s Story: A 100-Day Streak
For Kai’s family, bedtime used to be a nightly struggle. Like many children with ADHD, Kai found it difficult to self-regulate, and he needed a parent in the room just to fall asleep.
But that has now changed:
“Kai used to need me to stay in the room for him to fall asleep, but since using Stix, that’s completely changed. He’s really proud of himself for that, and I’m very relieved.”
Kai is now one of our most dedicated users. He nearing his 150-day streak using Stix, a milestone that shows just how much it’s become a natural part of his day.
His favourite activity? "That's tough" says Kai - The new sleep activities in Stix Plus, have helped him to drift off to sleep, but his absolute favourite activity is Breathe with the Sea, which plays soft waves moving in and out of the shore, helping him to focus as he breathes.

Support That Grows With Your Child
Every child faces different challenges. These can shift over time — from difficulty falling asleep, to moments of frustration, to times when confidence feels hard to find.
Stix Plus isn’t a quick fix. It’s a gentle way to help children better understand their emotions, with simple tools they can return to whenever they need support.
As your child grows, the library continues to grow too. With Stix Plus, you’ll have access to new content as it’s released, offering timely support during tricky phases, new routines, or just days that feel a bit harder than usual.
For parents, this can mean fewer meltdowns, more peaceful evenings, and moments of pride when your child navigates something on their own. It won’t solve everything, but it helps. And that kind of steady progress is what really matters.
Stix Plus launches July 1st
And it’s already making a difference in homes like yours.
We’re so excited to see what your Stix journey brings.
