 Fun, educational and attractively designed May 14, 2010
Mr. G. Mensingh (Birmingham, UK)
My 2 year old little boy loves playing with this bead set and wearing them like a necklace! The beads are big and chunky making it easy for little hands to manipulate and they're nice to look at. Having some single colour beads in the set might have helped him to practice his colours more easily. It's a compact toy to take out and about for entertainment outside the home. Paint is already coming off some of the beads in places but this is because my son likes to drag the string of beads round the house like a pet!I have to tie quite a few knots at the end of the string to stop the beads slipping off the thread. The set's easily stored in a tin / plastic tub. Am happy with this fun and educational toy that my 4 year old daughter also enjoys playing with.

I bought this toy as a Christmas present for my 2 year old daughter. She initially enjoyed stacking the wooden shaped blocks into a tower, getting quite high too, before the knocking them over (the best bit in her opinion!). I showed her how to thread the shapes on to the laces, which she is starting to get the hang of and I can see the benefit of the different colours, shapes, numbers and counting dots in the future. My 4 year old son has also taken an interest in them and they actually play happily together. He threads the beads well to make a huge necklace! He can easily recognise the numbers and shapes and tries to encourage his sister also. A good educational toy for learning manipulative and cognitive skills, as well as sharing and having fun! The only downside as mentioned in previous reviews is the box has no lid. I tend to use cling film when not in use.
 great for developing motor and counting skills in toddlers December 30, 2009

My two year old enjoys lacing the large wooden shapes onto the strings. My five year old enjoys using it too - as she can put them on in patterns or numerically.
The beads and string are of good quality and very bright BUT we do keep losing them as they roll under the sofa! So you will have to put them into a large biscuit tin or similar container because they come in an open-topped wooden box which is the only negative point.
Lovely toy August 7, 2009

Lovely solid wooden beads in bright colours. It comes with 2 laces for threading which is good if there are a couple of kids around.
My nearly 2 year old daughter really enjoys threading them, stacking them up and telling me the colours.
My only gripe would be that the box has no lid which is a bit of a pain from a storage point of view.

my son loves it. we bought this for our 28 month old 6 weeks ago. it teaches hand eye coordination by lacing the bright coloured cubes and stars onto laces. it all comes in a handy box to keep tidy too. already my son can point out the correct numbers by counting the dots and also by looking at the *number* on the side of the cube.
