I bought this one for my nephew. When I told my kids, they protested because they mistakenly thought that I had given theirs away.
Only problem: It is slightly tricky to get everything back in the box so that it closes. It is not too bad though.
Overall - I highly recommend this toy. I plan to keep it for my grandkids when my kids are done with it.
The box is very attractive but it does not come with a lid. Do not open if you do not have a large ziplock bag to put in. Or at least another box to put the beans into.
I like making craft items and found this product very easy to use.
She will sit at the table and bead away.
The colors are beautiful and it is wood so...durable!
The laces are great; vibrant colors and good to use over and over again.
My girl will wear her necklace for a day...loose interest...I will sneak it out of her room..undo it and put it back in the box (which is also made of wood and great for storage, even though it would make it PERFECT if it came with a lid! and we will make more!
