A young Bonaire boy's birthday wish list includes "stifts" under the category of arts & crafts. Anybody on Bonaire know what this is????

According to BabbleFish it's "styli", plural for "stylus" in English. Maybe he needs pens?

"Stiften" is Dutch for markers. I imagine that is what he is referring to.

felt-tip pen is what my dictionary tells me "stiften" are. It's the ink-pencils children use to colour/draw with. Amy is right, my first guess was that he meant this too!

Denise, Have you heard anything from the Hoppner Foundation? I have given up trying to reach them by e-mail.

My kids told me stifts were "colors" and pointed to their markers. I picked up a multi-set of Crayola markers for each of them and they were happy. Another good choice would be colored pencils - the ones we get here are usually very poor quality - very soft and break easy.
