How to make it
Safety
Pony beads are a choking hazard, so craft away from babies and toddlers and tuck the wire ends in well.
1Make a stopper
Bend 1 end of a pipe cleaner into a small loop so beads can't slide off.
2Pour the beads
Pour beads into a bowl so they don't roll away.
3Thread the beads
Have your child slide beads on one at a time. Try a pattern like red, blue, red, blue.
4Leave room
Stop about 1 in from the end.
5Close the bracelet
Wrap it around a wrist. Grown-up twists the ends together and tucks the tips in.
6Give it away
Make a second one for a friend.
Edie's tipPipe cleaners are stiff, so beads slide on without any needle. Great first threading project.
