Alex Toys String and Beep Wooden Stringing Set

I have a soft spot for beading toys as I feel they're really good for children. This wooden stringing bead set, String and Beep from Alex toys, immediately caught my eye as I browsed the aisles of my neighborhood toy store. The unique car-shaped beads are different and will appeal to both boys and girls. Stringing the beads with the wooden needle is easy as they are perfectly sized for little hands.

Beading toys build fine motor skills and concentration in children. Creativity is encouraged in kids as they come up with different designs and colorful combinations with the beads. Beading can be classified as a "quiet" activity, one which is so necessary in today's times.

Alex Toys String and Beep provides a different twist on traditional beading toy kits. Both parents and kids will love this simple toy which will provide hours of fun. Kids will enjoy creating their own version of traffic jams with the chunky wooden cars in this beading set. The set also includes 12 wooden beads, a wooden needle, cotton lace and a stopper. I liked the fact that the beads are designed to fit chubby little hands. The bright colors are a definite plus for younger children.

The small parts in this set make it more suited for kids above the age of 3. If you have younger children in the house, make sure that they aren't given access to this toy, due to the choking hazard posed by the small parts.

All in all, the String and Beep is a pleasant and inexpensive way to spend the afternoon with your little one.
