Threading Beads

Bead threading is very good for dexterity and fine motor development. This project can be very  inexpensive if you save beads from broken necklaces,  or pilfer some beads from old costume jewellery that you do not use anymore.

I needed some larger beads for my daughter, so I bought just a package of wooden beads with the pre-drilled holes from Wal-mart. Then I used pipe cleaners, because they are easier to thread when the kids are younger.
The bracelet in the picture is one that my daughter made.
