PRODUCT DETAILS
What's in the Box
- Black walking stick with curved hook handle (four interlocking sections)
This Kids Adjustable Walking Stick turns any Book Week costume into a fully-realised elderly character — perfect for the 100 Days of School, storybook grandparents, or any costume needing a classic cane. Screws together in seconds, extends to the height you need.
Four modular plastic sections thread together to create three different lengths — compact for younger kids, full-height for adults. The curved shepherd's crook handle is the detail parents notice: it's the instant visual cue that says "wise old character" without words. Lightweight rigid plastic holds its shape through classroom parades and kindy photo day.
Perfect For
Book Week & 100 Days of School: A go-to prop for elderly character costumes — pairs with any storybook grandparent role, or the classic "dressed as a 100-year-old" outfit Australian schools love for the 100th day celebration.
Theatrical & School Productions: Works for shepherd costumes in nativity plays, Victorian-era characters in history projects, or any role requiring a walking aid as part of the character's identity.
Wizard & Witch Costumes: Double-duty as a wizard's staff or witch's walking stick when you need something more grounded than a sparkly wand — fits the storybook aesthetic for Roald Dahl-style characters or classic fairytale crones.
How to Wear It
Screw the sections together end-to-end until you hit the height that works for your child (or yourself — adults use this too). Start with two sections for kindy-age kids, add more as needed. Pair with a cardigan, reading glasses on a chain, and a grey wig for instant grandparent energy.
Parent FAQs
What length should I use for my child?
Two sections (around 50cm) suits kindy to Year 2; three sections (around 75cm) for Years 3-6; all four sections (full 100cm) for older kids and adults. The modular design means you adjust as they grow.
Is this sturdy enough for my kid to lean on?
It's a costume prop, not a medical mobility aid — fine for holding during a parade or photos, but it's lightweight plastic and won't support body weight. Tell them it's for show, not for leaning.
Can I pack this flat for storage?
Yes — unscrew the sections and they nest together compactly. Handy for the costume box between Book Weeks or if you're posting it to grandparents for a surprise dress-up parcel.
Will this work for a wizard costume too?
Absolutely. The plain black finish and classic shape work just as well as a wizard's walking staff or a witch's cane — less flashy than a light-up wand, more grounded in the storybook aesthetic.
Care: Wipe clean with a damp cloth; store disassembled to save space.
