 The toy is fun, but quality could be betterJul 18, 2008
My 2-year old son was interested in the toy from the moment he saw it. He enjoys stringing the beads and then dragging then around on the string. He can be entertained with it for quite a long time. The colors and shapes are fun and attractive.
The quality of the product leaves something to be desired. After playing with the beads on a hardwood floor for one evening, the paint has begun to rub off the edges of the pieces. The holes in the pieces are not sanded finely enough, so sometimes the string gets snagged when one tries to pull it through. Also, and I don't know if that is intentional, or if any other similar product does it differently, but the piece of the rope that is covered in plastic is too short: you have to hold the string about 1 inch away from the plastic covered part to fit it into the bead to be able to grab the string on the other end. An adult can do it of course, but it's hard to do for a 2-yo.
 Lacing BeadsJul 01, 2008
My granddaughter is 3 and loves these beads;they are easy for her to use, colorful, and durable. I have given my grandchildren other Melissa & Doug puzzles and games and they are some of their favorites.
 Love M & D toys!May 29, 2008
This is such a great toy! We purchased it for our 4 year old sons birthday. He really enjoys stringing the beads and tying the string around various things in our house. It is great for small motor control!
Great stationery activity for my 2-year-oldMay 14, 2008
I got this for my 2-year-old daughter when her baby brother was born to try to find something that would keep her still for a few minutes while I'm feeding her brother. It works pretty well for that - initially she would sit for 15 minutes trying to string the wooden "beads" but now she usually asks for help or loses interest after a few minutes. I think if I spent more time helping her she would like these more - they're definitely interesting to her but it's still too hard for her to string the beads on her own. However, she has learned her numbers better from the number beads and overall she really seems to like these.
Melissa and Doug's Deluxe Wooden Lacing BeadsMay 13, 2008
I love the Melissa and Doug's Deluxe Wooden Lacing Beads I recently purchased for my 20 Month old grandaughter. She watches me when I am beading necklaces, and always wants to help. Now she can make her own beaded necklaces that are both eye catching, because of the bright colors, and easy to make. As an educator, I see value in the number matching and pattern making skills that we can also develop using the beads as she gets older. LOVE THEM! Kathy
