This bead set is great. We bought it for our 2 year old daughter. It took her a bit to learn to string them herself but finally has the hang of it. The set it beautiful and well made. She has been known to make all sorts of towers with them and even roll them around and have races with them. With nice vibrant colors, her little brother loves them too.

Classic learning toy, in this case with the bonus of numbers/counting -- excellent idea. My 3 year old grandchild and I are both delighted. Regret this version wasn't around when my own kids were small!

Fun for all

I bought the lacing beads for my two year old daughter because she loves this sort of activity. The other day we had her cousins over (a 7 year old girl, a 5 year old girl, and a 3 year old boy) and the lacing beds were a hit with all of them! They each took turns putting together different patterns, making "necklaces" and "belts". My daughter and her 3 year old cousin did require some assistance with lacing, but enjoyed the different size and shaped beads. I would recommend these to anyone.

Beautifully made, gorgeous colors and fun shapes. So wonderful to watch all the different ways that children find to play with these beads! No age limit on this toy, even the Mom's and Dad's enjoy them.

A great find
Posted 7/3/2009 by Laura L. Brown

Perfect size for my 21 month old. She sat right down to the big bright wooden beads. She watched me lace them and immediately started lacing them. I was thrilled to find these as "lacing beads" was a skill listed on her 24 month check up. I couldn't find the right size before. A great find.

Great buy for the price. Beads are large and colorful and, with 2 strings, great for sharing between kids.

I am very happy with this toy. I purchased it for my grandson,
and the bright colors and variety of beads keep him quite occupied.
This product is good for practicing numbers, colors, shapes, as
well as small hand coordination.
Very nice product!

Melissa and Doug have the BEST toys for kids. Their simple ideas are great for kids to develop the skills they need. They also get away from the bells and whistles of today's toys and show that simple ideas are the best for children to develop skills to improve their lives.

This product met all of my expectations. The beads are the perfect size for my three year old to handle all by herself, and she is enjoying making "necklaces." All of the beads can fit on one of the shoelace like strings.

My daughter loves these lacing beads. They are colorful and fun and a great way for to work on her fine motor skills. She especially likes making necklaces for her dolls from the beads. She also uses the beads in her play kitchen as ingredients for soups and cakes.

These lacing beads are wonderful. I have been using them since I got them with an autistic student. He has enjoyed them. He finds the colors and paint application interesting and exciting enough to keep his attention for a sustained length of time. I would highly recommend this product.

Exactly what I wanted for my analytical toddler. She would rather take the crayons in and out of the box than color with them. I purchased this toy for our restaurant bag. It is easy to pack and keep together on the string.

Good bead set

I bought these for my 2 1/2 year old son to keep him busy while I work on my own beading projects. The beads are colorful and a nice variety of shapes. I wish the holes had been sanded smoother, though; the laces tend to snag a little on the beads. It doesn't bother my son, but I find it a little irritating. He's been using them as building blocks as well as beads. These sturdy beads should last forever and the strings could easily be replaced with regular shoelaces if they get lost.

Grandson Loves These Beads

My two year old grandson is speech delayed and I was looking for something to stimulate his senses. He wouldn't play with anything else after he opened these beads. He doesn't lace them yet, he tries to stack them like building blocks or lines them up according to shape, which surprised all of us. His 19 month old sister loved them too, which caused some friction between the two of them! The colors are bright and eye catching and the size is just right for his little hands. I am very pleased with this purchase!

These beads are great My almost 2year old was immediately interested in them. Especially when I showed her how to string them. She loves to have them tied on her neck and mine like a necklace. She is still having a bit of trouble beading them herself, but keeps trying. Nice product for a reasonable price. A lid to keep the set together after opening, would be beneficial. As is, they fall all over.

So Many Uses for Lacing Beads
Posted 22 days ago by Diana Franklin
Rating:
Setting: Homeschool
Even though our almost two year old daughter is a bit young for them right now, she is loving them! While she doesn't quite have all the coordination to lace them on her own yet, she likes to do this with help from Mommy or Daddy. She loves to wear the necklaces she creates. She is delighting in all the other features: naming shapes, colors and doing her version of "counting" as well. I can see that in a short time, she will be lacing on her own and then once that skill is old news, she will still use the shapes/colors/numbers for other play. She has incorporated the beads in with other block play as well. I think this is a great toy with many dimensions.
fine motor skills a plus!

I have a 2 yr boy and a 5 yr girl. They both play with these and love them. We keep them in the family room adn they lace them up while wtching tv. They are great for fine motor practice. The kids can easily hold onto them and the holes are a good size so the kids can easily thread them. Would reccomend them to all my friends!

My daughter was fascinated by the colors of the beads. She immediately began lacing. We had a blast beading and rebeading - just making up new games as the time passed. As far as quality, some of the beads get stuck on the lace and snag the thread but besides that great toy!

Hannah is 2 1/2 and loves this toy. She was able to string the beads together right away and I had her count in spanish and english how many beads we had on the string with each addition. She loved the shapes, colors and the size of the beads are perfect for her hands. The quality of the beads is great and I can see this becoming a perfect couch game for us.
Only thing I wish was different would be that the box had a lid. Without careful adherence to putting the toy away together, I can see the beads getting lost, which may inevitably happen even with a lid.

My daughter really likes the colors and the shapes-- no other lacing toys that i found offered this. The only thing i don't like is that the box that the beads are stored in has no top to it. That would be a great addition.

The sizes, shapes and colors were attracting to my grandson. He was able to string the beads and the moved into pattern copying with ease. Attracting a child's attention is vital but holding that attention provides increased opportunity for learning. The combination of the toy and the size to enable him to hold them and insert the string as well as easily discernible variation provided success and generated increased interest and willingness to repeat and enjoy additional variation.

My little girl absolutely loves these lacing beads! We take them everywhere we go! I really love the wooden box they come in. However, I wish that it had a lid. Aside from that, the only other drawback is that I wish there were more laces included. We also use the beads to help with learning her numbers by sight and counting, patterns and we stack them. I would highly recommend this product!

These beads are large, chunky, toddler friendly beads with bright colors and wonderful shapes. My child loves to make necklaces. The blocks are also good to use for stacking so you really get two toys in one.

These are attractive, colorful stringing beads in a great box for storing. The youngster 3+ who was given the beads started stringing them, choosing different sizes and colors and then unstrung them and used them like blocks. I think she had expected round beads for stringing to make a necklace.
