Wood Lacing Beads in a Box - What We Love:

Beautiful patterns and fun colors make this wood lacing bead set a fun gift for preschoolers. A great way to stimulate their senses while they learn hand-eye coordination, improve fine-motor skills and learn about colors and patterns. Kids love to lace wood beads and these are some of the most fun lacing beads I have ever seen.

Wood Lacing Beads in a Box - Description:

You can count on this wooden bead set to make a bold statement! The variety of these dramatic bead shapes, their bold colors and two extra-long laces make stringing beads extra special. Twenty-seven hand-painted beads feature 1 - 10 as numerals and as countable dots to add counting fun to this lacing activity.

Extension Activities: More Ways to Play and Learn:

• Ask the child how tall the beads can be stacked without their falling over. Count each bead as it is added to the stack.
• Point to a color on any bead and ask the child to identify it.
• Ask the child to place the number-cube beads in a row from one to ten. Then ask he child to turn the beads over and line them up pictorially from one to ten. Repeat the activity until the child can easily identify the numbers and numeric representations one through ten.
• Ask the child to hand you a cube with a specific number or numeric representation on it.
• Ask the child to string the beads in a specific order. Describe each bead by its color, shape or identifying marks.
