    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.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely toy 7 Aug 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.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Fun, educational and attractively designed 14 May 2010
    Durability: 3.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 4.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   
    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 love those beads ! So colourful, sturdy, very easy to use for little hands. The only negative point I think of is on the threading lace, the hard end should be longer, at least... Read more
