How to use this list
Start by placing large-hole pony beads, alphabet beads, and name-letter planning cards in bead sorting trays. Children can use the planning cards, rulers, and masking tape to arrange a name or short pattern before stringing it onto satin cord. Attach the cord to a split key ring or plastic lobster clasp, then trim with child-safe scissors. Use small zippered bead bags to hold unfinished or completed pieces.
Common mistakes
Do not skip the planning step when alphabet beads are involved; a name can be hard to correct after it is tied. Avoid cords that are too short to tie onto the key ring or clasp. Keep loose beads in sorting trays and zippered bead bags rather than scattering them across the work table. Check that the split key rings are already opened enough for use.
