Melissa & Doug Lacing Beads in a Box

    Melissa & Doug Lacing Beads in a Box

This is an excellent product for encouraging motor skills. Threading beads onto string is a milestone development for young children and these come beautifully packaged in a wooden crate. The bright wooden blocks are also excellent for stacking and the numbers and dots make it easy to throw in some casual counting and numbers work. Our mini tester spent a good amount of time playing with the beads before threading them through the string to make “necklaces”. The only negative is that the box doesn’t have a lid, and it’s all too easy for everything to fall out when you’re tidying up. Suitable from age three.
