My Review of Dripstik

Originally submitted at One Step Ahead

No more messy, drippy, dropped ice cream cones! Mom-invented Dripstik not only catches melting ice cream before it starts dribbling, it makes treats easier to hold. Self-standing, too, so kids can rest it upright on a table. One end holds assorted-size ice cream cones; the other holds frozen treats...

Dripstik

Great idea

Pros: Easy To Use, Easy To Clean, Durable

Cons: Slot not deep enough

Best Uses: Toddlers, 4 and up

Describe Yourself: Parent of Two or More Children

I thought this was a great idea! I wish the slot of the popsicle end was deeper because the popsicles are a bit wobbly and don't seem as secure. They do catch the drips - until they tip the drip stick to eat the end of the popsicle and it dumps out on them. Definitely better for 4 and up. My 1 1/2 year old could hold it and it caught the mess....but he would tip it and all the juice would spill out. Defeating the whole purpose. But he felt quite independent using it by himself. We have not yet used it for holding ice cream cones. I don't make too many of those at home...so I need to remember to bring these products with me when we eat ice cream.
