Sylvia did a fantastic job creating her Belle. It really did turn out awesome and I was so impressed.

This activity was a fantastic way to build language and social skills. We talked and chatted for an hour and a half as we worked together on our Disney princess hama bead patterns.

Hama beads can be educational in so many ways from helping kids with fine motor skills to learning about colour. Hama Beads are also known as Perler beads or Nabbi beads. They are plastic fusible beads. To use these beads, you will need plastic pegboards to form the patterns. The colourful beads are arranged on these plastic pegboards to form patterns such as the Belle from Beauty and the Beast. The beads are super small, so it’s not an activity for a much younger child, however the size of Hama Beads can create a challenge and help children develop fine motor skills. If you're looking for fun, indoor activities to captivate your kids, this is ideal! The set includes 2,000 beads, a large transparent hexagonal pegboard, a set of gems, a design guide and ironing paper, so you can get started right away.

I helped Sylvia separate the different colour beads. This involved a lot of sorting and counting skills. I didn’t realise before we began just how educational Hama Beads can be. However they are great for extending mathematical skills. Place the three interconnecting transparent pegboards on top of the design guide, place the beads onto the pegboards and follow the design guide to create two large designs of your little ones’ favourite characters: Cinderella and Ariel, The Little Mermaid.
