Seventy-two beads, four laces, and twelve patterns to copy

72 wooden beads in 6 colours and 4 shapes. 4 threading laces. 12 pattern cards. Activity guide. $18.40.

Threading is one of the few activities that trains three things at once - the fingers, the eyes and the sequencing part of the brain - and children will do it for twenty minutes without being asked twice.

The pattern cards are what lift it above a tub of beads. A child copying a pattern has to read left to right, hold the sequence in their head, and check their work against the card. That is early sequencing, and it is the same skill that underlies reading and number patterns.

Colour and black-and-white versions of each pattern. The colour cards are the easy version - match what you see. The black-and-white cards remove the colour cue, so a child has to attend to shape alone. Two difficulty levels in one set, which is unusual at this price.

Six colours across four shapes means patterns can vary by colour, by shape, or by both.

Four laces, so four children work at once.

Read this before ordering for early years

There is no age rating published, and no bead size. These are wooden beads - the size is exactly what determines whether they are safe in a room with children who still put things in their mouths. We have asked for both, and we are not going to guess.

If you have under-threes, ask us before you order. Threading beads are normally a 3+ resource, but we are not going to state an age the supplier has not.

FAQs

We cannot tell you, and we are not going to guess. The supplier publishes no age rating and no bead size, and on wooden threading beads the size is the whole question. We have asked for both. If you have under-threes, ask us before you order.
Because the colour cards let a child match on colour alone. Remove the colour and they have to attend to shape, which is genuinely harder. Two difficulty levels from one set.
Four - there are four laces. That makes it a small group activity rather than a one-child one.
Fine motor control, hand-eye coordination, and sequencing. Copying a pattern means reading left to right and holding an order in your head, which is the same skill under reading and number patterns.
Not published. We have asked, because it is the measurement that decides which rooms these can go in.
