Besides offering a fun way to be creative threading beads is a very beneficial activity for the development of the child. It supports early development of the child and provides transferable skills they can use as they grow. Threading beads offers many benefits such as improvement of fine motor skills: smaller beads are picked up with a pincer grip (thumb and finger) while larger beads usually with a clenched hand. Rotating the bead to thread it further develops fine motor skills. Playing with beads helps to strengthen the small muscles in the child’s hands as different sized beads are grasped whilst using various hand movements depending on the size of the bead.

Threading beads also improves visual perceptual skills, hand-eye coordination and concentration. It stimulates creativity in imaginative play, enhances planning skills, learning about colour and encourages counting.

The wooden threading beads can be used with the SINA Spielzeug colourful baskets for storage or for colour sorting activities as well as with the set of Educo tweezers. A set of beading strings in 10 different colours is also available separately.

The wooden threading beads are entirely handmade from wood in Germany and coloured with non-toxic water based slightly transparent paint which allows the natural grain of the wood to show.
