"Hear teacher requested that all parents send in some glue sticks and I went with Elmer's.""The purple color is nice, since it allows you to see where you applied the sticky and when it dries it disappears."
"I like that they rub off purple so you can see where you have and have not glued."
"I like that it is purple when it is applied because it makes it easy to see where the glue has been applied and it does dry colorless so it doesn't show through light color paper."
"The glue stick is perfect for kids' projects and the purple color turning clear is really neat."
"I like the small, individual use size so each child can have a stick to work with and not have to spend too much of the craft time waiting for a turn to use the bigger size."
"(hasn't happened yet though in case your wondering :D haha) I would say that if you have to make a collage or another type of craft that involves more than paper, you will want a different type of glue as the glue stick is not powerful enough to hold up under heavy mediums."

"Hear teacher requested that all parents send in some glue sticks and I went with Elmer's... This allows for my little one to glue and not have to worry about it drying out... Although it will hold small paper projects together, it is not strong enough for anything major.""The purple color is nice, since it allows you to see where you applied the sticky and when it dries it disappears... As for dryness, I find these sticks to last quite a awhile before it dries out as opposed to the cheaper glue sticks you would typically find at a discount store... 26 oz, Pack of 6, (98095) because they are more sticky and hold stronger."
"They never hold quite as much as I'd like and it can be tough to get the glue where you want it; despite the stick, the glue tends to ball up here and there and not cooperate. That being said, as far as glue sticks go, these are pretty good. I like that they rub off purple so you can see where you have and have not glued."
"We use "Elmer's Glue Sticks" for our kid's school posters and science fair displays, as well as in our small shop to make temporary signs. I like that it is purple when it is applied because it makes it easy to see where the glue has been applied and it does dry colorless so it doesn't show through light color paper. This is not very strong glue and it is easy to remove items that have been attached using it, so we take a stick with us if we have to transport the poster or display board to touch-up anything that might have come loose."
"The glue stick is perfect for kids' projects and the purple color turning clear is really neat. It's great that many come to a pack as kids will lose these all over the place. You can't go wrong with Elmer's anything and the price is fair enough for these to warrant getting them here on amazon!"
"I not only like the Elmers brand, but I like the disappearing purple color... I like the small, individual use size so each child can have a stick to work with and not have to spend too much of the craft time waiting for a turn to use the bigger size. This pack is just like the packs you can buy in the store anywhere, but I could get it with the other things and save a trip."
"These glue sticks worked for the construction paper crafts I was using them for. I like them because they are non toxic also and I have a 2 year old that might fly by and snag one while on the run. (hasn't happened yet though in case your wondering :D haha) I would say that if you have to make a collage or another type of craft that involves more than paper, you will want a different type of glue as the glue stick is not powerful enough to hold up under heavy mediums."
