Toys and Games Reviews of Melissa & Doug Butterfly Wooden Bead Set
Customer Review: Perfect for a Rainy Day
Summary: 5 Stars
My 2 year old loves the M&K farm animal beads that are geared for kids more her age. She is nuts about my jewelry and loves butterflies so when I saw these beads in a craft store, I grabbed them up. The package says 4 and up (obviously these are a choking hazard), but she's a pretty laid back kid who doesn't usually put things in her mouth. I supervised her carefully and only bring them out when we can sit together. However, I would watch her with these--even if she was older. Beads like thse can be really easy to spill even for an adult.
That said, it's not a problem. I didn't get these to keep her "busy" (we have other toys or give her chores for that ;) ). Stringing these beads is great for her hand/eye coordination, creativity, and self-esteem (she is proudly wearing her first beautiful necklace). She likes to count the beads and point out the colors to us (so at her age, this is strengthening her number and color skills). She can put the little ones on very easily, but needs a little help from me or my husband with the butterflies (they are a little tricky) but I'm sure she'll master them all in no time. :)
But the best part of all (for me) is watching her while she strings the beads together. It has been a wonderful bonding experience for us that brought back happy childhood memories of when my sister and I making jewelry at bead stores in Ithaca. I very much recommend this for butterfly-loving preschoolers or toddlers, and we will probably get other sets like it. :)
