Perler Beads Neutral Colors Fuse Beads and Storage Tray For Kids Crafts, Small, 4000 pcs

Fun colors or beads

This is a great kit with a lot of beads! You get a lot for the money.

My daughter (now aged 37) asked if I still had the fusible beads from when she was a kid, and of course I did - tucked away in the 'craft closet' in the garage. Though I still had the forms, patterns and paper, my bead collection was depleted, so I ordered this set. I made the mistake of opening the package upside down, so all the beads slid together. Rather than trying to get them back in their respective cubby holes, I just dumped them all into a large tupperware bowl. My 4-year old granddaughter was able to pick up the beads and place them on the form, planning her pattern as she went along and chattering incessantly about how beautiful it was going to be. When I melted them together with the iron, she ran around with the colorful heart that she had made and showed it to everyone.This craft is great for practicing small motor skills, sorting, and planning and requires kids to sit down and be calm for a while. Though she was done after just 1 form, I'm sure it will hold her interest for longer periods of time as she gets older.

Plenty of beads to work with

Very good, sometimes the top of the container would stick though, causing some beads to fall out when opened, serves their purpose, below is one of the creations I made (some beads from a different kit but still included some from this one)

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Beads melt super easy.

Lots of beads at a good price. Have ordered these twice now and love that that are presorted by colors as opposed to being all in one big bucket. Lots of entertainment for my kiddos.

This is a good set with a decent spread of colors for different designs. Just make sure you buy a pegboard too as it can be difficult to freehand your creations.
