Easy Bead Bracelet Tutorial

What You Need

• Large colorful beads
• Elastic cord
• Small scissors
• Bead tray or bowl

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Pour the beads into a tray or small bowl so children can easily see all the colors.
2. Cut a piece of elastic cord long enough to fit around the child’s wrist with extra room for tying knots.
3. Let kids choose their favorite bead colors and create a pattern.
4. Carefully thread the beads onto the elastic cord one at a time.
5. Encourage children to count the beads or repeat color patterns while threading.
6. Once the bracelet is full, tie a double knot tightly.
7. Trim the extra cord and test the bracelet to make sure it fits comfortably.
