Crafts+With+Beads

=Making Bead Jewelery=


 * 1) Collect many types of beads of different sizes, shapes and colours: plastic beads, wooden beads, raw noodles. (__**Young children, especially those under three years old, need constant supervision with beads because they are a choking hazard.**__)
 * 2) Collect a few types of string and / or pipecleaners.
 * 3) Help your children thread the beads onto the chosen type of string. Some ideas: try a pattern and ask your child to complete the pattern, or try different sizes and colours of beads.
 * 4) Make something to wear out of the bead creation: a pipecleaner can be a ring (it will need trimming) or a bracelet, a string of beads can be a bracelet or a necklace. (__**If a young child is wearing a necklace, supervise closely and never let them sleep with it on**__).
